A pile ‘o bibs . . . .
I’ve had so many other obligations and have been traveling so much that I haven’t sat down to sew in ages.
I think I’ll be caught up with baby gifts after tomorrow night!

Last weekend of prep before peddling my wares at the St. Aidan’s Day School Spring Arts and Crafts Festival on Saturday, April 23rd! 😅Rain or shine, I’ll be there from 10AM to 5PM next week. It will be a fun, family-friendly outdoor event—see you there! 🤹🏼‍♀️🎪🤡

Day 31: Looking Forward
Tonight I was able to work on a gift for my who is due in a few weeks! 🤰🏼⏰
We celebrate the baby’s arrival at an outdoor baby shower on Saturday. 🎉🌭
The theme is “Adventure Awaits” — and what better than a themed gift? 🏕🦝
Over the next few weeks I’ll be adding more burp cloths to my shop—I’ll be sure to let you know when the listings drop! 💻👩🏼‍💻
Thanks for spending the month viewing my postings. Let’s keep in touch! 👀💌

Day 30: A Day in the Life
There’s not a day that goes by without me using my sewing machine in one form or another—whether it’s making a gift, sewing an order, or stitching a repair to my wardrobe! 🎁📬👗
This week I took some time to clean it, check the tension, give it a new needle, etc. 🧹🪡
I was thinking about how classic car lovers name their car. I think it’s about time that I name my machine! 🏎
Ideas welcomed! 💡

Day 29 - Old vs. New = Dinosaurs vs. Babies
One of my favorite work colleague’s welcomed baby #3 last week. 🤰🏻
Little Charles even listened to me teaching my first virtual CLE course (his dad is licensed to practice law in the same state as me)! ⚖️😉
I couldn’t pass up an opportunity to make a gift for him. 🦕
I chose this print — the cutest & oldest creatures on the planet!
One of the things about babies is they’re not going away. People are *always* have babies. ❤️
That fact alone has ensured many sales the world over! 🤭 But this combo, generally (dinosaurs and babies) are dino-mite! 🧨
I’ve posted a videos showing the embroidery and sewing needed to make this set. 🦖
What’s your favorite dinosaur?!

Day 24: Milestones
This week I rounded the bend towards 2,900 Etsy sales. ➡️2️⃣9️⃣0️⃣0️⃣
(Fun fact—I actually had a second Etsy shop open at the same time for a little while before they allowed you to carry more than ten categories of items—a lot has changed in ten years!) 🥸👍🏼
On non-Etsy channels, I’ve sold hundreds of items more! 🏷 ☀️
But this week, I’m most proud of maintaining my status for six months in a row! ⭐️🤩
Earlier this week, I received an email message from Chief Product Officer Kruti Patel Goyal. 📧 👩🏾‍💻
She mentioned that out of the 5.2 million Etsy shops worldwide (wowza—that’s a lot of shops), mine is one of only .5% that has maintained a Star Seller rating for six months in a row (since it’s initial rollout)! 🗓🦸🏼‍♀️
This means you can expect quality products, fast shipping, and responsive service from my shop. 📬💨
So, let’s eat cake and celebrate! 🎉🥳
I quilled this paper cupcake just for you to celebrate the occasion. 🧁❤️

Day 23: Product Range
One of the reasons I make a slew of products is because I realized how much crafting could occur with fabric scraps from other products.
So, from the scraps of larger things come smaller things, like from burp cloths to magnets or even pushpins. From bibs to badge reels. You get the idea!

Day 20: “In” Trends - Florals!
It’s finally here: SPRING! And what’s better than a Rifle Paper & Co Garden Party floral print to celebrate?
This “Wildwood” cotton print features roses, chrysanthemums, peonies, pansies, lemons, berries, and other flowers. I love the color combo on this cotton.
I hope florals are here to stay—I love how bright and colorful they are.

Day 19: Something New
Key chain fobs will be making their debut in my shop soon. 🔑
This fabric is from Japan—and it’s one of my favorites! 🇯🇵

Day 18: Sell Yourself!
Crafting isn’t my only hobby. I love to bake. Specifically, cake and cupcakes. 🧁
Allow me to sell myself AND highlight the benefits of a wonderful volunteer organization, ! 🎉
Like me, you can to bake cake for underprivileged, homeless, and foster kids through an organization called . 🎂
Last week I baked and decorated this for a little girl located here in Northern Virginia. 🌈
Before you can sign up to bake a cake, you have to take an orientation training course. Then, you’re off to the races! 🏇
If you’re not a baker, you can also donate money! 💵
This is such a worthwhile cause, and these cakes mean so much to these kids! I’m so glad to be a part of it! 🎁

Day 16: Goals 🌈
Each I know masters their craft for various reasons. Money, fame, creative outlet, passion, true talent, etc. 🎨
I do this side hustle for fun. 🤩
When it doesn’t feel fun anymore, I want out. 🪂
Right now I’ve been focusing less on sales and more on mental health and physical fitness. 💪🏽
Present goals = feeling balance — mentally, physically, spiritually, emotionally. ❤️
I’ll focus on new listings and “busy-ness” that comes with business again once I achieve equilibrium. ⏳
These affirmation cards help remind me of these goals and to go easy on myself. 🌸
[I ordered them from .co, and I love them—get yourself a set!!]

03/15/2022

Day 15: Time ⏰
You know how time passes quickly when you’re in flow? That’s how I feel when I’m sewing. Hours can go by, and I barely even notice. 🔄
Here’s a time lapse video showing how I make one of my most popular items—a crayon roll-up. 🖍
These take me about 45 minutes each to make from start to finish! ☑️
I will on occasion wait for more orders to come in before working on one so I can make them in bulk (it reduces the amount of time used by just a little bit). 😉

Day 14: The Numbers
Here’s a sneak peek at my numbers—I’m baring all right now! 👀
The 0s from 2016-2021 were from me taking a pause to attend law school. I don’t have any regrets focusing solely on school, and I’m pleased to see views and sales continue to increase despite me taking a five-year hiatus. I’m also pleased with the overall conversion rate. 📈
I have lots of new items to list but haven’t found the time right now—maybe after my federal income taxes are filed?! 💵
What you can’t see from these numbers? I tend to do very well in craft fair settings (there’s a lot of “bang” for the “buck” for me and my items). Also, I don’t have a lot of IG followers, but I have upwards of 2-4 orders a day. I also have many repeat customers! ❤️
