i'm not much of a writer

althought i'd like to be. anyways, i decided to start my own thing. its been about a year since i've been thinking about this and i now have the opportunity. i've been off work for 2 years now from being layed off, and it's been great. i was able to spend time with my two children and just be a mother to them. last year i moved to south florida with my husband and the kids not even knowing what would be in store for me. i was lost because i remembered the last time i moved here and i didn't have any friends for those 2 years. i wasn't going to let it happen again so i went on a hunt for some cool hip mama friends. thats when i met Veezie, Heather, and Jackie all at once! it was great! i felt like i finally belonged. its hard to be a first time mom and not have any of your other friends not even be close to having a child so this was super for me!
back when i was 13 i used to sew by hand and create all my outfits for school. come high school i got my own sewing machine. i took a sewing class and really started to progress. i made halloween costumes for myself and my friends. anywhere from  Rainbow Bright to Columbia from rocky horror. it was tons a fun. when i moved to south florida i had mostly winter clothes from the north (Chicago). so cut cut cut, snip snip snip and alacadabra! summer clothes!
veezie and heather noticed my what they called "dirty peaches" skills and i asked me to join them in there business adventure. i had been thinking months before that i wanted to start my own thing but i wasnt sure how to even begin. i was the new girl in town and i didnt know anyone in the biz. so, i went for it! we had great times together collaborating, sewing, creating. we learned a lot from each other. everything was going swell until time crept up on me. i thought everyday about doing my own thing but was having so much fun with the girls.
so yeah, the 2 years were up. meaning, my unemployment. work, yes, a real job is coming around the corner. what i've dreaded for years (only 2). i'm not ready for it. but, john and i are getting close to owning our 3rd home and we cannot lose it again. i will not let that happen. so, i decided to quit the dpc and give myself some time to actually start looking for a real job. hopefully it will just be a part time job or something i can do from home. this is actually a good thing once again for me. i get to start my own business. slowly and in a relaxing calm matter i will become something great.

so this is basically my life so far for the past 2 years, with a little bit of old school in there.
i really hope you enjoy what i put out as far as clothing, accessories, hand bags, jewelry, you name it. i've got a lot of creative ideas in my head and i'm so ready to push them out of my machine!
