Hey all, I wanted to give everyone a heads up as to where my pattern creativity has disappeared to. It's still there, and the hundreds of patterns sitting on my hardrive still waiting to be converted are a daily reminder.

But, in October of last year I got to join the long line at the unemployment office. Ever since then I've basically become self employed. It's not easy, and I probably would never had done it on my own but it sure beats what I got let go from :)

I am enjoying myself and learning new things, but it isn't leaving me a heck of a lot of time to work on hobbies. So I apologize for not being so um 'fruitful' in my offerings here for the past few months but as things settle down I'll be able to get back into the swing of things.

Quite of few of you have been extremely supportive during this time period, you know who you are, and I greatly appreciate it.

So lots of smooches to everyone who's downloaded and enjoyed my work, may your Sims be fruitful in their own way ;)

Hi Julie, haven't talked to you in such a long time. Life keeps us busy, right? It is good news that you have decided to go off on your own with your own business. I know with your talents, it will do well. So many people are finding that self-employment at home is the way to go now and really enjoying it. I am recovering from foot surgery right now, so not much time spent at the computer, but just wanted to say hello and especially happy that you are doing well. Big hug, Judy $\:wub\:$ $\:wub\:$

Self employment is so not a 8 to 5 job, the work never ends (my mom had a shop of her own, so i have an idea of the amount of work). I wish you good luck with it. If you are as good at it as you are with making patterns, I am sure you will be successful $\:\)$ And talking about those pattern, they are well worth the wait. Take your time.
