GROW YOUR BUSINESS

Sewing and crafting is more than just a hobby for me. I turned it into a business. You can too!

There are so many avenues to take when monetizing your art. Teaching, selling products, affiliate sales. I will share my thoughts with you and help you on your own journey.

Whether you bring in just enough to pay for your hobby, or earn your living through your craft, my hope is that you will find my information useful.

SEWING GROUPS

Start a sewing group in your area. Nextdoor, Facebook or other social networking site can be a good place to start. I started an artist group in my area through Facebook Groups and it has worked out well.

Learn from others who sew. Swap ideas and inspiration. Meet new friends with same interests.
