"All sort of Things" kind-of post!

I am planning on working on these three projects:

Marita is having another giveaway of Patrones mags, so go check her blog!

On a completely different note, I thought I should show you my 3y.o.'s daughter recent creations:

As far as sewing, I am working on two muslins: for a skirt and a top, looking for fabric for them and for a pair of pants the muslin for which is finished. I am also trying to decide on my SS'09 sewing plan. School started for me 2 weeks ago and time for sewing will be very limited but I'll try and squeeze some projects in.

Lastly, my dear step-father-in-law who passed away a year and a half ago and left many Hermes, Fendi, Gucci, Ferragamo, Etro, etc. ties. He had hundreds of ties, my MIL gave away many, and has now asked me to list on Ebay the last 50. I tried but because of their counetrfeit policy I can only list 3 every 30 days (or something equally ridiculous). I am looking for ideas how I can sell them. There is no local menswear consignment store, I already checked into it. I can set up an online store but I don't know what traffic I will bring. Anyway, pls share your ideas with me.
