Some fancy popcorn I made watching NETFLIX. This is sweet and savory.
Cool poodle scarf I knitted up for myself. I appliqued the "Gordies" to make the scarf REAL fancy schmancy.
Emily's scarf I knitted with her favorite fleur de lis. Oh it looks smashing!So much to do...no motivation! As you all know, the NY Haberdashery show begins January 17Th and we must get all our new samples and swatch lines in order. A whole slew of swatching is coming for me to prepare later on today. We're also trying to figure out how to swatch our new line of printed silk pocket squares. Oh the samples I've seen...hubba hubba! We're off to the container store tomorrow night to buy displays for our white linen pocket square line too. Those are packaged so great - you will all need at least 2 dozen to start with! REALLY!
Emily is home 2 weeks from college already. With the mess, added laundry, taking the car -- well it feels like she was never away. She is catching up on much needed rest and by mid January when she goes back, she'll be ready to start up again - I'm sure.
Russ has been hanging with his buddies. He only has 6 days left of his XMAS break. Yesterday he played hockey all afternoon with his buddies. Emily hung with her girl friends exchanging holiday gifts.
Tonight I think we're heading OUT for dinner! I haven't had a dinner out in WEEKS! I'm looking forward to night off.
I wish you all a good winter break and sharpen those pencils because you will be ordering up our new line of ties and pocket squares like crazy...hey you might even sign up for Gary's Pinnacle Publication while you're at it. You surely don't want to miss out on that!
Best,
Jane

Hi Jane:Finally coming up for air. We survived the Christmas holidays.Yesterday is one of my favorite days of the year because it is 364 days until next Christmas! Yeah. We had a good holiday I must say but truly we are raring to go for 2008!We're very excited to start fresh. I enjoyed all of your blogs that I've missed. Looks like you guys have been enjoying the holidays as well. I did some baking also. The problem is how do you not eat too much of the good stuff.I just don't have enough time for all the hours I need to spend in the gym. I think that's why I like knitting,It Keeps my hands busy and out of the cookie jar. Can"t wait to see the new line and of course to see you guys in NYC!!!!Jane #2
Glad to hear you survived the holidays Jane #2! I was wondering where you've been since I haven't heard from you in a while. Well next we have to conquer NEW YEARS and then it's back to work for us all! Well me, I'm always working! 44+ designs just came in this afternoon to swatch! More on the way too! I'll be very very busy come the new year. I'm looking forward to a healthy and happy 2008 for one and ALL!
PS Can't wait to see you and Andy in January as well! Looking forward to it.
