Amazing Review!!!

Check out this amazing review a customer left me!!!  Feeling so extremely blessed right now.  Just amazing and confirms that I am doing a good thing.  :)

First off, this seller has amazing communication. She was always so fast with her responses and so very thorough. She wanted (and did) to make the perfect lap pad for my son! So very pleased with it and my son loves the truck pattern. It is stitched very tightly and the fabric is so soft. It will be so helpful for my son as he needs to be able to concentrate and is soothed by the pressure. He also loves the ribbons as they are great for giving his little fingers something to do. Fast shipping and great updates on the process. Definitely recommended!

A Few New Things

I thought I would post a few new things that I have been working on recently.  I have been super duper busy with lots of orders coming in.  I love that!  I love that I can help kids.  It makes my day every time I complete a blanket and send it out.  It totally makes my day when I receive awesome feedback that the item I made has provided peace and comfort to those that need it so much.

It's a New Year, New Changes

A little on the personal side today.  I thought I would share since it has been on my mind the last couple of days.

I am sitting here just thinking how grateful I am to all of my customers, to my children and my children's therapists along with my husband.

I am thankful for my husband who without his support I could not be where I am today!  Thank you, honey!

I am thankful to my children's therapists who with constant urging got me to start making blankets for other people.  They were constantly nagging me and telling me how talented I was.  More importantly, they told me there was a need for what I could do and how I could bless the lives of others.  Well, that got me.  ;)

I am super thankful to my children because they are each unique and beautiful!  I love them to pieces.  Let's be honest though.  If it wasn't for their needs I wouldn't be doing what I am doing.

I am incredibly thankful to all of my past customers that have entrusted me of all people to make such an important blanket, lap pad or whatever for them.  If it wasn't for you then I would have quit long ago.  I keep plugging along because of you!  Hearing all of your stories just proves to me that what I am doing is important and I will keep doing it as long as there is need and I am able.

Last fall, I gave up a home business with Stampin Up.  I had been a demonstrator for 12 years!  It pained my heart to do so, but I knew it was time.  I just don't have the ability to push people into buying stuff (no matter how fabulous it is).  ;)  I was really getting busy with my sewing business and I came to a crossroads.  My husband pointed out the good that I was doing.  He was very tactful because we had this discussion before.  In my heart of hearts, I knew that giving it up was the right choice even if it crushed me a bit.  I have to say....  I miss it, but I am so glad I did.  It has given me more time to do what I really want to do.  Help people like my sons.

Ciao Ciao Brown Cow has grown.  Not only do I make blankets for kiddos with special needs, but now regular blankets thanks to my daughter.  I make baby blankets and baby bibs and all kind of baby stuff thanks to my newborn niece.  I have made curtains thanks to my son's teacher.

Ciao Ciao Brown Cow is becoming more than I ever thought possible and it's all because of YOU!

Many, many thanks and I love you all to pieces!
