I have too many ideas!

Thanks to everyone who has taken a business card (or 3 or 12) and seemed so excited about my business. I have so many ideas rolling around in my head I'm worried I won't be able to make them fast enough. On the flip side, I've never made things with no one in mind. It helps the inspiration to have a specific person in mind and know how much they're gonna love the gift. I guess I have to change my train of thought a little and just make things from the heart. I have material for at least 5 blankets but need to finish a few smaller things first. On a side note, I also want to offer instruction to anyone interested in learning how to knit, crochet or quilt. I am willing to drive up to an hour away from Chattanooga, and for those in KY who are interested, I will be there in August and September. If any of my KY friends are interested, please let me know before I come so I can bring enough stuff. This is a brand new adventure for me, hopefully one that will be fulfilling in many ways.

Got my business cards!!

I finally got my business cards in the mail today. Now I can start spreading the news of my new business faster. I am excited about new business and hope that I don't get overwhelmed. Also I'm adding a few hats to my available for purchase album. Click the link for my pictures to see them. I have some great ideas for new quilts. One is almost finished so I'll be starting on new ones this weekend!!

Why didn't I do this sooner?!?

I have found this to be so easy! I thought this would be hard to do. The only trouble I've had was a slow connection out here in the woods. I have connected my blog to some pictures in Picasa. There are past creations, which can be re-created if wanted, and some available for purchase. I will be adding prices and more detailed descriptions over the next several days. I am also working on new projects to add to the available album. Please share this with your loved ones. Now, people who aren't on facebook (they're out there I just know it) can have access to my new business. 'Occupation-housewife' here I come!!!

My first blog!

So I have been trying to find a (cheap) way to advertise my new business. I have a facebook page but not everyone is on facebook. Then I found a site to make a free website. I added several of my pictures, only to find out there is a limit on how many pics I could post without paying any money. Then I looked into Etsy-that costs money too! Until this business gets off the ground I have to find the free ways to advertise. And here we are. I love to make blankets and scarves and hats and other things for other people. My birthmother Susan taught me how to knit, crochet, and quilt and I absolutely love it! I make more things for others than I do myself. It gives me more joy to think about how much someone is going to enjoy what I'm making. I have several things I have already made and given away and a few things that are made and available for purchase. I do not charge any shipping unless it is out of the country. If you want something similiar to a previous creation, please allow 2-4 weeks for delivery, depending on what item you want. If you want something already made, it can be in your hands in days. Please email me with any orders, questions, comments, or you can post here. Thanks so much for taking the time to check out my blog!
