So it looks like my business partner… aka mom, has been holding back on me! lol She had a few more  original Joey bags stashed, and has just finished sewing them up! 

There are ONLY 10 black LEFT!
& about 2-3  of the brown (I have to double check). 

So if you are looking for an original joey  at a huge discount… buy them now. They are for sale ONLY on my Etsy store http://tracyjoy.etsy.com  I will be listing them 3 at a time until they are sold out.

HI everyone!

First of all.. I do apologize for the extended wait on my new Reese & Joey bags.  Having a new product put into the works, and perfecting a pattern, all require time… and sometimes, more than anticipated.

The Good news, the new JOEY will be available in the next 3 weeks ! WHOOPPEEE!!!  Now, just hoping the next 3w go fast, lol

The Bad news… The Reese is going to take a little extra time. Due to the new style, the  new pattern, and again… PERFECTION being saut, we are pushing out date back into November   I know… I’m prob the person most excited about getting a Reese in my hand, lol. Not to mention… patience is not a virtue that I behold haha

Anyway, that is my new update.  Even though the dates have been longer than I anticipated… the wait will be worth it, I can promise you that   Your going to LOVELOVELOVE these new bags!!! Not to mention… a new little accessory that I have in the works… keep watching my blog!!!!

HUGS AND THANKS AS ALWAYS.  As I’ve said many times in the past… I have the most AMAZING client base, and I’m so blessed to have that wonderful support!
