…every new beginning comes from some other beginning’s end…
semisonic, “closing time”

well, i’m starting a new adventure. seems like forever ago that i set out on the writer’s path, but in reality it’s only been a few years. i suppose i’ve lived a lot of life in those few years: pregnancy, birth, moving, publishing a book, raising a toddler. yeah, that’s a lot.

but now pendrops couture beckons me & i’m thrilled to take these new steps. my feet just seem to fit on this uncharted trail. not that writing didn’t fit or that i’m closing the book on writing, but this pendrops thing, well, it’s the right thing at the right time. & i am filled with such joy in my creating, sewing, designing…even the tedious tasks of packaging & ordering office supplies are a delight.

but what i want to say as i officially begin down this new path…

i have loved – loved – sharing bits & pieces of my journey with you here at krista finch. this is where i shared my book, as is, with you. this is where i wrote about my pregnancy & waiting for jude to arrive. this is where i related the joy & wildness of jude’s early days. i have been humbled by your kind comments, your encouragement, just by the fact that you have taken time in your busy schedule to see what i have to say. that is an honor & i do not take it for granted.

for this season, i am stepping back from writing at krista finch. however, fresh & wonderful stories abound at pendrops couture. i sincerely hope you will visit me there.

thank you always for your kindness.

cheers…

if you haven’t had a chance to check out pendrops.com, please stop by the blog and say hi. i’d love to hear from ya. the official site will be up in a couple weeks, but for now all updates will come through the pendrops couture blog, facebook page and twitter feed.

speaking of updates…

ok, i’m on cloud 9. can i tell you? i mean, this is exciting. it’s just too good to keep secret.

so, you know that the pendrops couture online boutique opens monday, april 25 (mark your calendar!), but what you didn’t know is that pendrops is going to be a vendor at the franklin farmers market starting in may!

that’s right! it’s really happening! i’m so excited i could do a round-off backflip into the splits (and i haven’t done one of those for years). i’m thrilled to make my lovely, earth-friendly cards available locally at the market while continuing to support our tennessee farmers and other vendors i’ve come to know these past several years. pendrops couture cards and the franklin farmers market are a perfect fit!

as the market opening approaches, i’ll let you know my booth location and dates. hope to see you there!

cheers…..
