To Etsy or Not to Etsy...That is the Question

For many years, people (mostly family) have told me that I should open a shop to sell the things I sew.  Most of the time, my response is negative, but recently, I decided that I would go ahead, bite the bullet, and open my Etsy shop.   Hopefully it will be up and running by the end of this week.

What will I put in it?  That's a good question.  I have named it CoffeeBeansandCalico, because I am mostly fueled by coffee(not really, but a little). Calico, another name for fabric is my medium.  I recently took a PU tote, tore it apart, and remade it into a lined tote/backpack for my Mom to use when she flies to FL for the winter.  I will add something similar and other designs.  The nice thing about this bag is the ability to change the handles and make it into a backpack when you need to walk in an airport.



I will also be offering I Spy Bags, which are great for children as well as adults.  Stay tuned for pictures as I add them.   Of course, I have pacifier clips, Rabbit or dog ear wooden teethers, lovey blankets, and Mug Rugs.  Quiet books will be something I add after a little while.  The ones I have made so far have been for my own Grands, and will expand on those.
