I would love to introduce you to one of my newest sponsors Sew Beastly!
Hello Just Lovely Things readers!!
My name is Citlalli, and I am the heart and hands behind Sew Beastly.
I am a gal who enjoys drinking coffee, spending time with my loved ones, collecting anything skull and crossbones, baseball, doodling, rocking out while sewing the day {and night} away, having meaningful conversations and traveling {just to name a few}
My blog is a place full of ruffles, inspiration, and the handmade goodness that surrounds me.
My shoppe is where you can find a fun mix of my handmade accessories.
Stop by, say hello, and..let's connect!
How did you start Sew Beastly and where did the name come from?
-Sew Beastly was fueled by my passion for sewing, and by my ever growing fabric collection.

The name came about after I made a 'beastly' sound around my boyfriend.
He soon referred to me as "the beast", I graduated to "sewing beast" soon after my boyfriend realized the ridiculous amounts of time I would spend with my sewing machine.

It was just a matter of time before my logo came to me...
I put it down on paper, and that's how Sew Beastly originated.
How do you stay inspired if you ever get into creative ruts?
-I try to change my scenery. Getting off the computer, taking a stroll around town,
or it can be as simple as scheduling a coffee-date with a friend.
I work from home, so even stepping outside for a short amount of time helps out.

We are only a few months from the New Year,
do you have any goals to accomplish by then or you will be launching at the New Year?
-The goals I want to accomplish are goals that I strive for all year round.
Number one is definitely to spend much more time with my loved ones.
Grow my business...keep making small, but attainable goals.
Also, finding the balance between work and personal time
{this is something I really struggle with}.
