I’m a little sad and apprehensive, but a lot rellieved to be announcing this.
After a lot of thought, I decided that the diaper business just is not bringing enough profit or fulfillment to be worth keeping open. With that said, out with the old and in with the new.
I am releived to be destashing a large percent of my diaper making fabrics.
Now, don’t let it fool you. I’ll still be making diapers. just not on a large scale. I’ll still make diapers for friends, and on a case by case deal, for former customers as well. No one has to worry that I will be completely gone. But I just cannot keep all this stuff, so it will be a lot smaller.
I am also going to be destashing one of my sewing machines. It is practically new, and just sitting, because my embroidery machine also does regular sewing, and I’d much rather have that than one that only sews.
I can’t wait to get some of this stuff gone. Then I can use some of the money I’ll recoup and put it towards my new love, the spinning and fiber stuff. because really, in spinning I have found a true calling. one that is not at the whim of having little babies. and honestly, i can do more and more spinning as the kids get older… which was always a problem with the diapers…
and now, wonder of wonders, the diaper makers children may get some new diapers! imagine that. I never allowed myself time to make theis before. so they always had the sad seconds I couldn’t sell, or the origianl stuff from before I got good, lol. now, they can have the good stuff. That alone makes me happy.
Of course, I will be keeping the blog, since, after all, it evolved a long time ago from being a shop blog to being a personal and crafting blog, didn’t it? and its a lot more fun this way. so don’t stop coming here!
later, I have some destashing and organizing to do!
