I had a lot of emotional stuff going on this winter and the muse did not strike.  In addition, I found out the top tension of my sewing machine went bloooey, costing me $$$ and aggravation, and I'm concerned that sewing through those thick L&L projects to edge them might have been the last straw for my little machine, so I'm reluctant to risk it again.

But I want to hang on to this blog for a while and see what happens.

A Winter Muse?

Honestly, since spring has sprung, I have not felt the urge to work on L&L projects.  Perhaps when we are into the hot, dry summer phase I will feel differently.    But the muse is quiescient right now.

Tiny Storefront

This new tool in beta from PayPal is quite the cool thing. Just to play around, I placed a storefront at the bottom of the blog. I wanted to put it at the side, but it is too wide and spills over top of the blog entries. It also does a weird thing with the photos where even if I put them the size it says it wants, it only shows the top half. So I added a direct link below the storefront so someone could look at photos directly. The storefront technology is pretty well done overall and has neat features.

Never mind that I believe I have a total of three readers of this blog or that L&L does not put its best foot forward through photos! It's kind of fun, though. I checked into Etsy, and I determined that for such small items, there was no way I was going to pay a fee just to list them.
