Hmm, I guess I got busy...I'll blame it on the trip to Cuba, which was fabulous.
Things are moving more or less according to plan. There's been progress on the Whole Foods front - my vendor application was approved! Now I just need to be put into their system. It's been 2 weeks and it seems I'm not in yet; 2 follow-up emails have had no visible effect. Very frustrating.

From Our Cave to Yours |
In the meantime, I'm concentrating on my wine bottle bags. Have sold to 3 wine stores now, plus Hafner, with interest from others. I'm steeling myself to make 5 cold calls a day; not overly ambitious, I admit, but pretty good for me. Getting a lot of requests for info/photos that I hope will turn into orders. Learned, however, that this is the slow season for wine sellers. I guess that makes sense. Will have more interest closer toward the holidays.
Had a good chat with Michael at Western Washington University, let him know what I was up to with respect to the new laptop sleeve design. He was encouraging, said there was a lot of interest in the bags but the price seemed to discourage them (he's sold about half of what he bought). They should like the new price point a lot better.
