A come back

Hello every one! I haven't blog since 2 years or so! My day job is extremely time-consuming... But now that I have an employee to help me out at the office, I am able to sew, quilt and blog again! These last months, I have created a new collection of bibs, I bought a lot of new fabrics, and... my bibs are now sold at the boutique of the Musée national des Beaux Arts de Québec!!

Heather from The Buzz has contacted my boyfriend to participate in a giveaway she is hosting. Judging by the quality of her shop and her products, he could not turn this offer off! Besides, the fact that she is putting her impressive bio to the service of crafting made the opportunity to work with her a no-brainer: he could not miss it (anyway I wouldn't have let him miss it).



Marc a.k.a. Miss Sideburns is offering the Business Manager. This is his best seller and, I believe, his best bookkeeping product. It is designed to handle most essential accounting tasks. Listed at $26.00, the giveaway is a good opportunity to get ahold of a nice (at least as nice as accounting can be...) spreadsheet.

To participate, visit Handmade Union's facebook fanpage and follow the instructions. You can also follow her on Twitter(http://twitter.com/etsyguide), and don't forget to drop by her shop.

Good Luck!
