The past day was spent attempting to get the Sitemap for Thread Treasures to upload to search engines such as Google, Yahoo, Ask and the like.
Being a techie, I would have never thought that getting the module installed and configured would be so time consuming, since other modules were a matter of a few moments.
In the end, the site can now feed into the googlebot so that the rankings will improve when phrases are entered into the search engines.
I will be putting more and more designs on this page to reference.

ThreadTreasures.com - Online store learning curves
In trying to get Thread Treasures off the ground, I have learned a few things.
Trying to create a web presence for my product is almost a full time job. Since I started getting the store up, I have not had time to actually digitize designs.
Hopefully, now that everything is up, I'll have the time to create more new products. At the moment, I am not aware of anything that is pressing with the storefront so I can get back to digitizing.
I still have to learn more about SEO, but that will come in time. I'm just happy to have my items being sold at three different places now.

ThreadTreasures.com - Launch of the new site
Well, I finally started my own spot on the web. Thread Treasures is now official.
So, besides selling my designs at OPW and StitchNet.Org, I now have my own Place.
It is kind of nice, because I can offer things there and nowhere else. I plan on doing that with certain designs. In fact I have already got a Christmas Poinsettia that will be exclusive to my store.
I digitized the Poinsettia in 2009 and used it for napkins for my sister to go with a tablecloth that I embroidered for her.
Needless to say, I am very excited as my business continues to grow.

Northmen to the State Championship ... Again
Regional bowling action was held this past weekend, and the Northmen took first place and advance to the State Championships again this year.
Will the Northmen repeat? This mom hopes so. The tournament will be the last weekend in May.
Keep your fingers crossed that the Northmen will remain the State Champs!
Way to go Guys.

Thread Treasures - Quilt Blocks and Jimmy Buffett
Well, while I was working on getting this particular set all resized and the documents ready, I was listening to Jimmy Buffett. A state of mind not a music... but I digress.
What should have taken me an hour took 4. Jimmy distracts me. LOL
These unique quilt blocks are available Here.

Thread Treasures - Forgotten Gems
I simply love looking at some of my older designs, as I am never quite sure what I will find. This morning, while looking at some of the designs, I stumbled upon these long forgotten gems. One never knows what I might uncover as I dig deeper into my treasure chest.

Thread Treasures - Having a blast
I have been having a blast looking at what seems like zillions of designs that for lack of better classification I call quilt blocks. I see tons of uses for them, but I am just one person.
These designs are in the process of having final color selections placed on them. When I digitize, I usually select a color scheme that I want to work with for the day, but that doesn't mean that the designs will be grouped together. I pick what catches my eye for groupings with mostly no reason.
