Happy Sunday!

Let’s start off chatting about Big Brother!  It’s on tonight.  I’d be happy if it was on every night!  I know we can watch live feeds and all that, but that does not interest me.  I like the edited versions. lol  I keep getting asked who my favorite is to win. I really don’t have one.  I really like Paul and would be happy if he won.  I’ll be happy for anyone.

And I do think it would be super wild if both Corey and Jessica made it.  That would drive the house nuts! LOL  I’m not big fans of either of them, but again, anyone who wins certainly earned it.  I never understand when people say they don’t deserve to win because they didn’t play a good game. Um, if you win, you played the best game!

I will say there are some things about the show that I don’t like.  I do not like they way they talk in the diary room. It’s so over the top. No one talks like that!  I like a regular speaking voice. I’m not big on noise. I especially hate when Josh bangs the pot and pans. Do hate so much.

So I’ll be watching tonight and will be curious to see how it all plays out. I just miss Skylar so much when it’s on as she loves watching Big Brother with me.  Miss her.

Yesterday my nephew and his two kiddos came over. They each brought a toy, a stuffed animal and a doll. I made pillows and sleeping bags for both then also an outfit for the doll.  No cameras. No pictures. Just sewed like a normal person. lol

Then I uploaded a new Half Rectangle Quilt Block video!  I just loved this one!  There are so many ways to create different quilt designs.  I showed you a few that I came up with at the end of the video. Please watch!

I still have quite a long “short” list of things to do today. Upcycled Fashions, “Shit” series, Comments of some kind, a Doodle Reload. I’d love to accomplish two of these things, would mega love to accomplish three.  I am quite sure I can knock out the doodle reload. I just need to swap out the music, take new pics, edit the ending. Not brain frying but still time-consuming. Then I’m leaning toward an upcycled fashion or the shit series. And maybe comments tonight!  How does that sound? lol  Key word is “maybe.”  No promises.  Just remebered.  I have fabric to cut and orders to get out.  I must get busy!

Youtube Analytics Mini Update: I’m gaining lots of new subscribers! The peanut gallery is growing so fast!  I will hit 21K today for sure.  The youtube app is showing me that I got 186 new subbies just yesterday alone. I think that has to be my highest ever in one day.  Nope!  I just checked my lifetime analytics and I see I got 197 on June 28, while Skylar was here!  Makes me happy to see that. She is good for my channel!

Saturday Chat – Reporting Copyright Infringement, Fabric on Blog, Mini Youtube Update, Plans for Today

Happy Saturday!

It’s a gray day! Yay!  Score for the girl who loves darkness!  I have no clue if it’s hot out there or not.  So far, it’s okay in the house but I’m sure I’ll need the AC soon.

Last night I put a fabric listing on my blog instead of on eBay.  Just trying that out.  I realize I still need eBay too, especially for auctions, but also for fixed price listings because I gain visibility there.  My thinking is that I will try to use both.  But after I sell the fabric I have on hand (which is quite a lot due to this shopping trip) I will cut back for a bit.  I don’t like having lots of stock on hand and I’m quite sure my regulars have shopped enough. lol

I just turned the AC on.

I might also try some smaller lots of fabric, less prints per lot, or maybe even some lots of one print and you choose how much you want of it.  And I will upload as I can, not just on Fridays (but I could still do a Fabric Friday video as a reminder). I just need to figure out the paypal button for that to get the shipping to adjust by the size of the cut. So much to learn! I really want to work my way back to having a store on my blog. Little by little, I will get there!

Last night, someone let me know that yet another one of my videos got stolen.  The first time I had to report that, I looked everywhere for how to do it.  This time I thought I’d walk you through the steps of how to report a copyright infringement in case you are a youtube content creator and you have some of  your videos copied.  It happens more than you think!  Youtube had my video off their site within the hour and also deleted all their videos but two.  Their channel still exists and I see they are building it up again. I doubt they are using stolen videos this time.  If they are, they can expect to be banned shortly.

I will be super busy today because we are expecting my nephew with his two kids, Maggie and Dean.  I’m still going to do my best to work.  I can set them up with crafts. Their mom does not want them on video so I won’t be recording while they are here.

When I do record, I have the following on my short list: Upcycled Fashions, “Shit” series, Comments of some kind, a Doodle Reload, and of course, a Quilt Block.  I hope to get as many of those done over the weekend as possible!  I hope I can accomplish at least three of them.

I thought it would be fun to give you a mini update on how my channel is going.  I know I have some die hard fans of my youtube earnings update, so I thought maybe those viewers would like mini updates while waiting for the half month and full month youtube updates!  And I’ll start directing you to my other posts that you might be interested in, like you see below.

Youtube Analytics Mini Update:  My month is starting out good (knock on wood) with two days over $30 so far.  I slacked a bit yesterday by uploading two videos that are not usually big on watch time for me, so I expect watch time to drop. I just checked the youtube app and yes, watch time for me yesterday tanked.  But I gained 502 net subscribers for the first 4 days of Aug! That’s fantastic!

10 Free eBooks:  I have the list of free ebooks posted!  A nice little mix, something for everyone!

Yesterday’s Walmart.com Deal: I found this Marvel Super Hero on clearance for only $2.97, down from $12.15! It’s never too early to start shopping for Christmas!  Or maybe you have some kids’ birthdays coming up?

And Derrick has been putting some new t-shirt on his merchandise site!  Check them out!

Have an awesome Saturday!  Darlene xoxo
