One of a kind

Don't get all excited.  It's not time for the shop update, but I am slowly working my way there.

This camera strap is one of a kind - you won't be seeing this version for sale.  I made it for Caroline and it was long, long overdue.  You see, she's the type of friend who goes and buys two camera straps from my store to give as gifts even though I had given her strict orders that behavior of that manner was not to happen.  Well, she didn't listen.  So I made swift promises that her very own strap would be made lickety-split and now, months later, here it is.  I'm a bit embarrassed that it took me so long because, really, she's the friend that feeds my cat and takes in my mail and waters the jungle of a garden when we go out of town.  Besides that, she listens to me gripe when I have had it up-to-here (imagine me holding my hand way above my head) and she makes me laugh, too.  She deserves way more than a silly camera strap or a sample pack of kick butt olive oils.  But until I figure out what exactly will fit the bill, a camera strap and olive oils will have to do.

So, I guess what I am saying, besides that I have a fantastic, one of a kind pal, is that the sewing machine and I were reunited this weekend.  And that, my friends, is a great thing.
