News Bulletin!

Hello, everyone!  We interrupt your regularly scheduled programming to share a story with you as to why your regularly scheduled programming isn't happening this month.  So sit back and relax while we share!
Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Alex.  She was making a different bag each month for her mom's fabric shop, and teaching classes and in general having a great time with everyone and every bag!  However, when the month of July rolled around, and it was really time to have blogged about July's bag already, Alex realized she hadn't even finished making July's bag.  This is mostly because she often thinks that she is a superhero and can do everything.  She has delusions about what exactly "24-hour day" really means, especially since she likes to sleep at least one-third of those hours.
This is what Alex would look like if she WERE a superhero.
Alex was feeling kind of bad about this (okay really bad), but knew that all of her bag making friends would understand.  So she asked me to tell you this story in the hopes that you will forgive her, and to tell you that July is going to be sort of a month off for bag making, and hopefully she'll finish the bag by August.  Time will tell!  In the meantime, we hope you are getting lots of outside fun things done, like mowing the lawn and weeding, which Alex is also not doing.  Nor is she doing inside fun things, like washing dishes or laundry.  What is she doing, you ask?  Well, maybe she's out doing superhero things.  Or maybe she's just selling candy to kids and carting babies around.  You can ask her about her goings on when we return to your regularly scheduled programming.  Thanks for your patience, everyone!
