Just a quick blog….
I’ve sold my first handmade item! Wow, does that ever feel
good to say!
I didn’t set out to make any money off of these creations. To
be honest, it was one of those things I’ve always wanted to master, and in the
last year, I have found myself with all kinds of time on my hands, so I figured,
there’s no time like the present!
Every new project I’ve taken on, I chose because of the challenge
(market bag for the pinning, makeup bag for the zipper, and the scarf for the
hand sewing). And originally thought that I could use more work on my hand
sewing and I was really starting to get the knack of the ladder-stitch, so I set
off making something that was so ugly, you had to call it cute! Making a
stuffed toy has many challenges, but the trickiest so far is the patience you
have to have to create a product you are proud of in the end. It’s time consuming
and left-brain heavy, but in the end, totally fulfilling – and tough to let go
of!
