A Labor of Love

“Control is never achieved when sought after directly. It is the surprising consequence of letting go.” ~James Arthur Ray

Where has the summer gone?  It’s hard to believe it’s already the end of August.  And while I am super excited to launch the fall line in just a couple of weeks, it’s taken me quite a while to get there.

Call it writer’s block...or um, a creative block?  Regardless, I spent a great deal of time this summer coming up with different design ideas, and then tossing them aside.  The more I forced myself, the less I wanted to work on them, and the ideas just stopped flowing.

A friend suggested walking away for a few days, checking out mentally and enjoying myself.  (Great advice by the way!)  And wouldn’t you know, the minute I did that, the ideas came to life and I got back at it!?!  I even revisited a few of those designs I had put in the “no” folder and I’m thrilled to say that the new additions to the free to be yoga tees® line are finally at the printer.  Phew!

This September, I am introducing a new color to the ‘Peace Love Detroit’ tee, plus a super adorable (or at least I think so!) new baby long sleeve one piece.  There will also be two new women’s tees--a long sleeve and short sleeve v-neck.  And one of those will have a charity angle!!  More on that soon.  :)

I am so relieved to be done with the fall designs, and am super excited to see what you all think!  I sure hope you like them--it’s been a true labor of love!

And on that note, I’m thinking it’s time to relax and celebrate Labor Day Weekend.  Enjoy, everyone!

Until next time...


Namaste,
Julie
