Treasured Notions
It's so exciting right before a new book comes out. Patiently waiting for this next book, I completely forget about the angst that went into crafting, shooting and writing it. I think about how thrilling it's going to be to look at each page - to try and see it as if it was the first time. I guess it's like giving birth - as soon as we finish a book I say - "Well, that was so much fun - Let's do it again!" Funny how during the middle of it I usually have a break down - but I can't even remember that part right now. Now, I am in that happy place - waiting for a box of Treasured Notions to arrive so I can sit with it for a while and just breath a sigh of relief. To answer the typical e-mail we have been receiving: I believe this next book - which is completely inspired by Tinsel Trading's basement (pre-move) - will be available in April. You can pre-order a copy on Amazon now - or wait to order a signed copy through us. I think it's a gem and hope that you will too.
Can't wait - it looks beautiful!
ReplyDeleteOh my! This looks wonderful....LOVE Tinsel Trading...LOVE notions!

So exciting~!
ReplyDeleteI can only imagine. But your analogy is apt. We never remember the worst when the final product is there.
ReplyDeleteIt looks like so much fun! And I haven't even bought Soiree's yet! My gift card is burning a hole in my pocket!

So excited for you! And I love seeing the beetles on the cover. The only time I've been to TT I was thrilled to find a box of old beetles down at floor level behind some other, more expected notions. It was magical to find these "original sequins" for sale.
