NBM

What's NBM? Its a trade show for anyone in the sign or t-shirt decoration industry. It was awesome! I learned so much about process and how to create things. Amazing.

I even learned that they have smaller commercial grade machines for small businesses like me. I heard the sales pitches and then I got to hear their competition criticize the product that I just thought was the answer to all my prayers. So, again amazing.

I see that I'm more of a sell some first then invest in a small machine. That's okay by me now that I see it will be under $500. Hell as little as $350. Still I have no money but I see how I can get some and then build on it. Anyway, this helped me see my ideas as actually do-able without moving Heaven and Earth.

I was wearing my uber-long and heavy T-shirt dress and I got so many compliments. I would love to copy it but I'm finally gonna face the music and say that its too heavy, too long, and the chest and waist are problematic. Right where you want it to flow freely they have it gathered. terrible. In fact, most of my clothes, for someone with my chest measurements; are all too damn small or cut in the wrong places. Places which get stretched out, weighed down, gap open, or burst at the seams. tisk tisk.
