January Projects

Hannah and I have been working quietly (okay, not so quietly, really) behind the scenes since recovering from the holidays.  We've been having weekly meetings and getting quite a bit accomplished, though the poor blog has suffered somewhat.  We just wanted to let you all know we're still here, and are so excited about our new website launching soon.

I know we've talked about it for a while now, but we just got the "rough draft" copy sent to us and couldn't be happier.  With just a few tweaks, we'll have it up and running in no time!  And we will have e-commerce for those who just want to buy straight from the website (without going through etsy). 

We're also close to finishing our press kit which will got out to certain blogs, boutiques, magazines, and local TV stations.  Hopefully, we'll have a date soon that we can tell you all about the launch.  Oh- and don't worry, we're keeping the blog (it may have a new address, but we'll tell you all), and plan on doing more tutorials soon.

Hannah started making iPad covers and after she made a laptop cover for her computer and mine, she started making more- ours are 15", but as always, we take custom orders, so just email us or convo us on etsy if you're interested in having a one-of-a-kind cover for your latest techie gadget!

Here's a little peek at some of the goodies we've been making:

we're starting to think Spring!

a little craft organizer- grommets are going in the top so you can hang it on the wall

laptop case with my most favorite fabric ever

iPad cases- these were scooped up out of our etsy shop almost as soon as they were listed!  yea!

these cute dog collars almost make me wish I had a dog!

So even though we have been working on a lot of logistical things behind the scenes here at FlyChicks, we're still managing to remain crafty and productive (lots of knitting going on too!).  Hope you all are enjoying the new year- we're ready for Spring!  Can you tell by the purse above with the fun, bright graphics?

Hello and Welcome!

Hello all of you out there in the blogging world and elsewhere!  My name is Emily; my sister, Hannah, and I have decided to start a blog in the name of our new, growing business, FlyChicks.  We've been reading blogs for a few months now and got so inspired that we decided it was time for us to launch.  Although we both have backgrounds in Fine Art, we recently learned to sew again and have been coming up with all sorts of fun ideas using all sorts of fabric. 

We're somewhat new at this sewing thing, so bear with us, but hopefully we'll get better as time goes on.  I want to post lots of pics since I am a very visual person, and hopefully, one day, we will feel confident enough to start giving tutorials.  I've set up an Etsy shop for us, but orders for things like handbags, headbands, key fobs, make-up bags, and more are backed up already!  So once we get the store stocked, I will post a link.  Meanwhile, I will just post pics of things we are working on.

Thank you for visiting, and we hope to see you often!
