THANK YOU!<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Hello, hello! I&#8217;ve been diligently working away behind-the-scenes and my next book is starting to come together in a lovely way. It&#8217;s <em>SO<\/em> exciting. This is my favorite part: when the structure of the book is mostly done but there&#8217;s still enough wriggle room for changes. I can practically feel the elation of bursting through the finish line, but it&#8217;s also continuously and thrillingly uncertain.<\/p>\n<p>So. Do you love sewing? Are you interested in getting a sneak peek into my new book? Are you a stickler for details? Then perhaps you&#8217;d like to be a pattern tester? That would be so tremendously awesome!!! This new book is a slightly different flavor from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Sewing-Happiness-Simple-Projects-Living\/dp\/1570619956\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Sewing Happiness<\/a>. It&#8217;s been pure fun and the projects are very beginner friendly <em>and<\/em> kid-friendly. All of the projects can be whipped up in an afternoon or less. If you&#8217;d like to be a tester, please fill out the Google Form below and I&#8217;ll send you a PDF with the pattern to test by <strong>February 8th<\/strong>. You&#8217;ll have a couple of weeks to work on the pattern and in order to meet my deadline, I would need all feedback by <strong>February 22nd<\/strong>. Because I&#8217;m so grateful for any and all help, I&#8217;ll be popping a little treat in the mail for you so please make sure to fill out the address fields. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m looking forward to being able to share it in full next year, my friends!! Sometimes I wish the book process didn&#8217;t take its sweet old time but then again, that&#8217;s what makes it all the more rewarding. Patience is a virtue and all that.<\/p>\n<p>OK!
