Sold my V-stitch Shawl Pattern to a woman in Australia!


Last week a woman in Australia bought my crochet pattern for the V-Stitch shawl. I think it is so amazing how people can connect all over the world. Here I am in little Rhode Island and a woman in Australia noticed me....well, noticed my pattern, lol. It is neat thinking that in the near future several people might be wearing something I designed on another continent.
I sold 7 pieces of jewelry last week. Two were custom orders to make earrings to match a bracelet and another set to match a necklace. I have a jewelry show coming up on the 16th. I am gathering everything together and making a few more pieces. I think I will bring some of my loose pendants and gemstones and make some pieces right there if someone wants custom made things. Exciting!

Jewelry Show

I had a small jewelry show on Friday. I sold 5 pieces and possibly two more. A woman bought a pair of earrings and also liked the matching necklace and bracelet. Those are my two most expensive pieces. If that goes through I will be very happy! I will be booking another table there hopefully closer to the holidays when people are in the shopping mood. :-)

My wonderful mother-in-law has sold quite a few pieces for me by showing it to her friends. A clinet of hers always complimented her on her jewelry and my MIL would always tell her I made them. She asked to see some and ended up purchasing a few things. Now she has requested some blue things. I packaged up about 25 pieces with blue stones/beads/crystals and also a few other items that I could always make with blue if she liked that style. I will find out how it went later this week. Exciting!

Landscape Stone Earrings SOLD!!

I sold the Landscape Stone earrings today. I liked them so much that I made another pair and then made the same style earrings with different stones. I also made about 8 bracelets as well. I am getting ready for a show on Friday at a local business. All week I made new decorative tags with my Cricut machine and labels printed on the computer. I think it all looks very professional. When I set the table up I will take some pictures and post them. Wish me luck!

Sold a Pattern!

I just sold a pattern on Etsy for my Sweet X's Valentine's Basket that I made in collaboration with the lady who tested my Sweet X's Baby Hat. I am so excited! It is great to know that people like what I make. I know there are two people making my V-Stitch shawl right now and can't wait to see pics.


I have added a few more pieces to my jewelry store too. There are people looking at it. I wish people could leave comments that only the seller could see so I would know what people think about the jewelry and prices. I am working on new tags for my first jewelry show in March. Have to head out to the craft store once the snow clears a bit.

I am also working on a baby blanket crochet pattern. I have the pattern all figured out, now just need to write it out, and finish making the blanket for photos. It is made with 2 strands of Bernat Baby Jaquards in Berries & Cream.
