A Little Free Time

Thanks to all of you for your encouraging comments. The search for a hygiene job is still on, but I've got my third and fourth interviews this week and should be hearing back very soon about last week's working interview. Hopefully something pans out quickly; I hate job-hunting! In fact, if I had my choice I probably wouldn't work at all -- not in the traditional sense, anyway. I could keep myself plenty busy just sewing, crafting, and decorating, with only occasional breaks for food and water. I guess I'll just have to enjoy the extra time right now while I've got it. I'm working on some new blessing dresses and would love some ideas of where to sell them. Someone suggested to me that I put them in hospital gift shops, which I may do. My Etsy shop will be up and running soon, as well.....I hope. In preparation for this, Cassidy took some beautiful photos of my finished gowns. I've been dying to share them with you:

Hi Rachel! I was blog "surfing" :) and came across yours! I cannot believe how incredibly talented you are. Those dresses are absolutely gorgeous! I wish I could go back a year and a half and snatch one of those for my little girls blessing! Sooo beautiful! Hope all is well, and good look with the job hunting, any dentist would be lucky to get you :)

Oh Rachel so you are so so so talented. I love these, makes me wish we were having a girl and if we did I would have bought one off you! So no boy outfits? We are having the hardest time finding something (esp. something that isn't make with that plastic-looking material) and I was going to suggest selling on Etsy or make a blog just for them and have a contact email. A few ideas...

Beautiful Rachel. My jaw is probably still on the floor, I LOVE them. Count me in to buy one from you when we have kids. I need to live closer to you to do craft night. (we're making quilts).

These are without a doubt the most gorgeous blessing / christening gowns I have ever seen. Absolutely breathtaking.

Beautiful dresses!!! Linda Anderson (from UVU Dental Hygiene clinic) is my mother-in-law and she suggested contacting you about your blessing dresses. I'm looking for one and would love more info on your dresses (prices, shipping, any more selection?) You can email me at miahanderson7@hotmail.com and we can discuss. :) I would love to hear from you! Thanks so much!
