I'm still sewing the 7 chef coats. This has turned into a long project. I have the name and logo embroidery to do also. I haven't done any real digitizing so reproducing the logo is going to be a challenge. I can have it done for $60 but I'm a little too tight for that at the moment! We'll see how hard it is to digitize.
In other exciting news, I talked myself into a full-time sales position with a local sewing and vacuum retailer. They are the 3rd largest seller of Janome sewing machines in the US. Very progressive business and I think there will be some very good opportunities for me. I'll be one of the longarm specialist for Handiquilter. I know that the other salesperson went to Handiquilter University so it's possible I'll get to do that too. I start next Monday. In the meantime I still have some shows booked. The Fall Festival this past weekend was a real bust. After expenses, I made $30. I don't think the shows are the best market for the goods. I'll just continue to develop the line of merchandise for the retail outlets to which I have a commitment. That should keep me very busy!
