it’s already May???

Apparently there is a saying in futbol–meaning soccer– the essence of which is that a futbol team is a short blanket and if you pull it up high enough to have strong offense and score a goal, you leave your feet exposed and don’t have strong enough defense to protect yourself from the other team scoring a goal. You always have to prioritize one or the other.

I feel that way sometimes about running this small company. I can either spend my time developing new patterns or I can be here doing social media, connecting with you,  and marketing to be visible and to sell the patterns we have.

It’s so difficult to do both! Sometimes it feels impossible.

In any case, I’m still here, trying to catch up on the fall patterns after our first very successful Creative Madrid tour (more on that later!), and I just looked up to discover that it’s May already!?! Are you playing along with Me Made May? I’ll be posting to Instagram and with occasional recaps here. I’d love to see what you’re wearing.

And I promise to be here more. I miss you!

    Loving it all. Especially loving the green jacket. Maybe a pattern for us ?

    I’m see on the Isola Blouse/Dress pattern the line drawings show a back side panel. The pattern instructions only show pattern pieces for side front panels (#4, 5, 6). The photos on the web site seem to show side back panels. Am I missing something? Thank you for your advice.
