But alas, I will settle on making the gloves - awesome site :o) Hi!

I agree about sewing for others. It's what I enjoy doing. I have numerous people tell me I should open an etsy shop and make money with the stuff I make. Honestly, I think that then, that would be work, with deadlines and stress. The way I make things for others, brings me joy. And, it gets done when it gets done (I do keep track of special event "deadlines"). With 5 kids, #6 on the way, and homeschooling, I can't always guarantee that my production line is humming, but i will be.
