{FRIENDLY FACES}

We had a wonderful time at the Elk Mound Craft Fair today.  We were able to introduce ourselves and our products to a lot of friendly faces!  We also saw some familiar faces, which we love!  Thank you to everyone who stopped by and said hello - we hope you'll spread the word about  b a b y b u n d l e s  to others!

It was so nice to hear that customers came to the fair specifically for us and to buy more of our goods!  That's what makes this so rewarding... knowing that what we are making, people are liking, and want more of it.

Here we are... hard at work!


All in all, it was a great day! 

...See you at the next show...

{ELK MOUND CRAFT FAIR}

Yes!  It is that time of year again!  This weekend is the Elk Mound Craft Fair at both the high school and elementary schools in Elk Mound, WI.  We will again be in the elementary school, but we got lucky and will be in the gym this year.  Be sure to stop by and say 'hello' if the fair is on your Saturday's agenda! ...and think of someone you know who is expecting a little bundle and may be in need of some great products!

The actual event details are posted on the right side of the blog... scroll down a little and you'll see it.  You can even let us know if you're going to come if you'd like!

We're hoping for a good turnout and good weather!  (Enough with the rain already!)

{BIG NEWS!}

... or little... depending on how you look at it.  We  have news to share!  The Card family is growing!  We are expecting baby Sullivan in February of 2010 and cannot wait to share him with the world. 

While I am feeling great now, this wasn't the case for the first trimester and then some.  I blame the 'joys' of pregnancy for the neglect of the blog over the summer!  I didn't have much to say during that time anyway, except for 'When will this ever end?!'

Now that things are back in order I thought it was a good time to switch our blog name to match our website, which was also updated last April to www.babybundleshandmade.com.  Check it out if you get a chance - and feel free to follow us on the blog so you don't miss a beat.  If not, check back often as we are planning on giving this blog a little more LOVE :)

Until next time...

{WHERE HAVE WE BEEN?!}

Good question!  It appears that our last post was back in April, and although I know it has been quite some time since I have posted anything, it sure doesn't seem like THAT long ago!

We haven't neglected the business... only the blog!  In fact, we have been busy bees keeping up with orders coming in and are so happy about that aspect of it!  Because of our 'booming business' we were able to purchase another sewing machine and we have named her Janis.  She was a little fussy to start with, but we have become much closer over the past month or so.  LOL!  Judy (our first machine) is now living at Lora's so that we can both do a little of everything and get more orders out the door! (Please don't think we're crazy for naming the machines!  They are such an important part of our work, we thought they deserved names...)

Anyway - thanks for hanging around!  We'll do a better job at keeping everyone 'up to date'!
