I am currently self-employed. I have decided to try and make a living at doing what I really like to do.   I really like to sew and do machine embroidery.   Just being creative with my designs is a good feeling.  I sell at craft shows and to my friends.  Oh my friends, they are the ones that are behind me and supporting me in my decision to be self-employed.   I really like being here on Etsy, everyone that I have come in contact with have given me such good advice.  I am planning on listing more once I have time; right now I am getting ready for a show. 

I never thought that 4 years ago I would be where I am today.  I got a new sewing machine and made some Christmas gifts.  I thought it would be nice to do a little embroidery on what I was making.  I bought an embroidery machine!!  I never thought that my embroidery would take off like it did; I am now on the second embroidery machine with a larger embroidery field so I can do bigger designs.  The other day I had them both running trying to catch up on orders!!!
