Crafting like a crazy woman

For the past two days, its been required that I craft and make many, many things (i.e. iPod holder, monster zippy pouch, etc). It's exhausting. And, although my editor and some of her colleagues were there in the trenches with me, I almost started to feel (I'm sure) like those 10 year-olds working in the Mexican sweatshops with someone cracking a whip, "work faster, faster!" Yesterday was making the items at Becker and Mayer! and today was on Capitol Hill at the photo shoot while the storm howled making the lights flicker - fun! I'm excited/relieved/anxious that the book will be coming out soon - mostly relieved as it's been a big project for a while now. Ack.
