Heather Bailey Nicey Jane

I'm so ready for Christmas songs, twinkle lights, gingerbread
cookies — the whole shbang. I have looked forward to the holidays all
year.  Our last Christmas
was pretty hectic and tiring with Isaac in the hospital and whatnot. 
This year we are all drinking an appropriate amount of water, to say
the least.

I've been working my tail off to wrap up my first stationery release
(Inviting Company, Jan 2009), to get new patterns to the printer, and
to prepare for my new fabric collection, Nicey Jane™. 
I'm so thankful these projects hit in November and not in precious,
chilly December.  Despite the hubbub, I channeled some of my holiday
excitement into designing a fun stack of holiday gift tags as a present for our customers this year.  A set of these tags will be sent out with every order placed in the month of December.  And they are DANG
cute.  My favorite is perhaps the holly berry design at the bottom-left
of the photo above, or the reindeer.  There are other great holiday discounts and freebies right now at HeatherBaileyStore.com as well.  Click here to take a look.

Part of my holiday plan is to blog more.  My goodness, where have I
been?  That's right, under a heavy stack of deadlines.  With new
patterns on the horizon and plenty of holiday projects in the works, I
have lots to share, including several sewing projects that have had to
stay under wraps the last two months.  Ah, what a relief.

First up is Miss Nicey Jane (next post) — can – not – wait!
