Hello Etsy


Hello Etsy

For a while now I’ve been considering selling my garments online. So today after I put my nerves aside I signed up for Etsy. I was considering other online marketplaces; however this is a start to test how my items will be received.

I do not know much about online sales but I will take some pictures and post them to the site.  It sounds easy and this is the marketplace for handmade items so here goes.


Lord I pray this goes well.

Faith Hope Love

… If I have faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing.
 
Faith Hope and Love - The Greatest Gift

Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails…

From 1 Corinthians 13 NIV

 Happy Holidays today and always

Hounded


Hounded

I’ve arrived in North Carolina… finally! So happy and excited, my plans are working out! Thank you Lord! I have gotten all moved in and mostly unpacked. With the help of family, I got most of the furniture where I want it and have begun working. Sewing is still part-time as I adjust to my living and working conditions here. I think this is going to be an exciting opportunity. That’s my optimism speaking and getting carried away. I am also exhausted from moving but I find the time one Saturday morning to find the local fabric store and get to sewing.

My mom and I visited Mary Jo’s and chose this black and white cotton hound’s-tooth. I was so eager beaver to get in my happy place; I forgot to jot down what pattern it was. As you can see this pleated front sheath dress is almost done. I measured the hem line and ironed it flat so all I have to do is sew it in place. I can’t wait to try it on.
