2 reasons to Smile...


Yes, it's true..there will be a few new designs appearing at http://momiboutique.etsy.com/ at some point today..maybe tomorrow! (sorry to keep you on the edge of your seat..I just know that sometimes I have good intentions of listing & one hour seems to fade into another & before I know it, the day is done)
Now if I must say so myself..don't those boots just scream..Octoberfest. Hello my little dutch girl, my my.....your mommy has some funky taste! :) I would totally steal them from her closet but, I think my feet would have to shrink to half their size.
Now here is a little story I would like to share...
Last week I had Mr. Momi do some rearranging in my sweltering shop & he convinced himself that I need to throw out my entire scrap drawer/drawers saying that it's a waste of space & I am never going to do anything with them. He had a point but, I was not convinced so the scraps stayed. The same week my sister said in a phone conversation to me.."you must have the biggest scrap box in the world". I thought, hmm, why yes...yes I do. I was wondering if they were forming some secret scrap hater society against me. But really, if we were down to our last dollar & lost heat then at least I'd have the scraps to make blankets for the babies...aside from my 127 bolts of fabric...I had myself convinced that i NEEDED those scraps. Well, last night Mr. momi must have had the heavens working on his side because an angel named Nikki was sent down & asked if I wanted to trade my scraps for hair goodies. When I saw what her shop had to offer I nearly flipped!! She didn't have to ask me twice...I was sold in an instant. You just MUST check out her awesome hair flair. Every Momi girl needs at least one!! I bet if you look in a few weeks she may even have a fabric flower that matches some of my designs!
Thank you, Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!

LOL!!! That's funny Dave mentioned it too. I wasn't hatin ;-) I was remembering mom's large collection of scraps and realized that you sew about a zillion times more than she did and I thought she spent a lot of time in the sewing room, so I could only imagine.... Yay for Nikki!! :-D
