Monthly Mosaic April

Another month has passed which means it's time for another mosaic visually summing up all the blog happenings this past month:

I've started a new weekly feature, "Fill in the blanks...", which I'm already enjoying a lot and I've continued making new treasuries with things I currently love on Etsy. 

Perhaps my most favorite thing on this blog is the weekly interview with crafty ladies, this month I interviewed Bonita Rose, Rouge & Whimsy, Kamika Kraftz, and Janmary Designs just this week. They were all Indie Biz classmates and I was honored to feature them and their lovely work on here.

Speaking of Indie Biz, we had a huge Launch Day Celebration this month with loads of new shops, new blogs, new products (like my butterfly) and giveaways. I also hosted a giveaway and the lucky winner was the lovely Dimi from Greece. 

I've started working on some unicorns, but sadly that's been put on hold again. My physical therapist wants to make sure my tennis elbow and De Quervain's are completely healed before I start doing the very thing that injured me so severely. 

So I did some online shopping instead, got myself new business cards, thank you cards and stickers from Moo, and thousands of colorful buttons and a hundred pinback buttons from Etsy.

Wonder what next month will bring?

Monthly Mosaic March

Time flies! Another month of this new year (is it still new? sure feels like it) is already over. I had many plans for my shop for this year, but I kind of feel like I've nothing so far due to my arm and wrist injury. So I reviewed this month by checking out my own blog entries and found out that even without almost no sewing, it was quite an eventful month on here. 

Even though I didn't blog and sew as much as I had intended, I did blog quite a few things (including two tagging games), I interviewed five lovely and crafty ladies (this was a long month with five Wednesdays), I searched the web for the most impressive cupcakes (still dying to try some with marshmallow frosting), and I even baked rainbow cupcakes! 

And I did sew a little these last two days and finished a butterfly! I also finished another big project, my first pdf pattern and tutorial and I want to make many more. And I did all this while taking the Indie Business course in the background, and getting to know and networking with all my awesome classmates!

So I guess it was a productive month after all! From now on I'll review every month like this, with a monthly mosaic, to remind myself I'm not just doing 'nothing'! On the contrary :).
