September 17th, 2021:  Here it is, mid-September already!  Ok, so scheduled for completion asap are the three Saint Joseph Roman vestments.    The design I came up with is beautiful, and based on the original silk version sewn in early 2020. 

Deo Gratias, I have bought a wonderful new high speed sewing machine!  After over a year struggling with simpler machines, the new machine provides effortless sewing and obviously, production will now return to former capacity.  Thank you, Saint Alphonsus!  I asked this great saint to send me some sales in early August. Not only did Saint Alphonsus find me a buyer for a new, Immaculata Roman vestment in record time, but sales continued.   Note that all this happened 24 hours after I had spent eight hours getting my 'social security' paperwork in order, as the outlook appeared grim!  The result was total sales revenue for the month not seen since before the GFC hit in 2008, and the need for government assistance was quickly ditched!  Out and about in North Queensland, we are still enjoying a very high level of unrestricted freedom here with zero lockdowns and other restrictions.  I work from home, so any 'surprise' lockdowns that may occur here should not affect my work.    

Seen on the left is a highlight of the new, inhouse produced emblem of Saint Joseph and the child Jesus.  I can use any image you wish, but it needs to be a clear resolution.  It takes about an hour or so of careful right and left clicking in the digitizing software program to clearly draw each outline and then get creative as to what type of stitch I would like these to be.  The neckline of the Little Infant is in a 'stem stitch, with a radiating satin stitch used to create the Halo.  I try to recreate hand embroidery as far as possible, and to not just squash stitches on top of each other simply because 'the program' is automated to do that.  I want to shift to 100% inhouse work, rather than relying on shoddy so-called 'bullion embroidery' made overseas by careless people.  Which reminds me, I will be attempting Episcopal Gloves soon!  God bless you all!

17 Sept, 2021: NEW ROMAN REQUIEM VESTMENT:  I have just completed today a new version of a Standard Roman in Requiem black with gold tones.  I have to get this to the post office, so will create the sales page with price within the next few days.
