You know that saying? Well, for us at The Twisted Ewe, Saturday was that day. We spent the day with Jennifer, the creator of the shop, looking, touching, and taking possession. Then there was inventory, and deciding how we want to set up all those pesky information handling operations, like keeping track of stock and knowing when to reorder.
It was a big day for us, our first as proprietors of our very own yarn and needlework shop. Jennifer did an excellent job of building the shop and the business, now we are excited to be taking over. We have plans, lots of plans, but they will all take time.
Stop by and visit the blog periodically, or better yet, subscribe to our RSS feed, to keep an eye on what we’re doing and to chat about needle arts.
Happy sigh. It’s ours!
Suzanne and Brien
