Busy Busy Busy...

So much for my regular 'Blogging' I intended to do!!  Oh, well I'm here now!
We have a busy few weeks/months here at Squeeky Cheeks, on Sunday I'll be attending my first market since January last year (just before the floods!) so I've been flat out making hats.  Isn't the one above just gorgeous?  While I was making that one, I was thinkinghow fresh this fabric was...so I jumped on the net and ordered another 4 metres of it!!!

Here's the promo poster for the Little Birdy Market - Echuca that I'll be attending on Sunday...that's one of my hats there!!

Well, that's about it for now...I'll be back in the next day or so after the market...I'll be Busy Busy Busy next week with an Facebook Showcase and something else HUGE at 'The Handmade Library' that I can't really talk about until Monday!!

Until next time,
Cheers,
Sandi

A New Direction....

Wow...Has it really been over 12 months since I last posted anything on here??  Hmmm, must do something about that!!

So much has happened in the last 12 months, mainly on a personal level, which in turn has impacted majorly on my little business.

 Back in January last year we were flooded in some of the worst flooding Victoria had ever seen (well in living memory that is!)...The flood was the easy part, we got back on our land, picked up the pieces and was starting to get back to work when the Vic Government (in their wisdom) stepped in and, they offered to 'buy back' our properties so we 'didn't have to go through anything like that again'... to make a long story short, they gave us no choice, so we had to move!

We were lucky, we were able to buy a property close by so the kids can still attend the same school & we could move with the least disruption possible!

So...In January this year, we moved (and I'm still unpacking!)

I'm hoping to get my business back up and running at full speed, doing markets & expanding into sewing supplies & haberdashery.

I'm planning to do regular posts here and on my Facebook page, as well as a newsletter, so become a follower and keep up to date with all the goings on at 'Squeeky Cheeks HQ'
