We adopted a cute little Chihuahua puppy from a friend who could no longer take care of her. She is just 5 months old and is less than 4 pounds. We are in love and our other two dogs are learning to love her. Her name is Bella.

We survived quite the wind and dust storm last night. Beautiful day today. Lots to do before I leave tomorrow. More fabric to cut for the show and everything needs to be packed into the truck later today.

 Another day of packing for the Long Beach show. We will also visit the garment district. This is my first time and I am very excited. I will take pictures to share.

It was a busy day today, getting things ready for the Long Beach show. My sister and I worked hard, she put together kits and I worked on hand outs. Tomorrow I will pull patterns for the show and cut fabric. Looking forward to the trip.
