Oh, and this…

Posted by: typealice In: Gillian

So, I bought a motorcycle today. I’ve never driven a motorcycle. Hell, I didn’t even SIT on this before buying it. But, the dream to own a motorcycle is about 30 years old. I don’t remember a time when I didn’t want a motorcycle, and I have been promising myself that I’d buy one for years and years and years. This is an early 30th birthday present to myself.

And I have Etsy to thank. And hours and hours and hours and hours and hours and hours of sewing cowls.


My new MOTORCYCLE

I can’t wait until spring!!!

Every single second of time in front of my sewing machine and in front of photoshop has just been made even MORE worth it!

That’s awesome! I can see you flying down the road on it, with one of your cool cowls on! :)

Hey,

I just received my cowl in the mail today! It was the red black and white plaid pattern and I know my girlfriend will love it for Christmas!

Thanks so much for the speedy service and the personal thank you note put the whole experience over the top, I will definitely be ordering from you again in the future!

Have a great holiday!
