FABRICS!

Hello, friends! While other people are getting ready for Thanksgiving, I am busy sewing for you. At this time of year planning, designing, and sewing takes up most of my time. 

So~~~~my plan for tomorrow is to go the the fabric store and purchase the remaining needed fabric for the Christmas 2018 season.

Currently, I have these cozy fleece fabrics in stock. (Plus a dark red and several shades of green.) I purchased many of those a couple months back.

Besides those, I have these fun flannel fabrics in stock ready to be sewn up for your favorite doll. Feetie pajamas are my best seller.

AND- these eye-catching cotton fabrics, which I already revealed in my 1st Christmas sewing Blog Post.

I am getting pretty excited to see what new fabrics come into my home tomorrow. Hope I have room for them and that you soon make room for the pajamas, snowsuits, dresses, and outfits that they inspire me to sew for you!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Ebay / Etsy / Amazon Handmade

I started selling on Ebay on January 31,2002. The first thing I made was an embroidered patriotic star denim jacket. I wish I still had a picture of that! I decided that if it sold, I would list two more things. it sold right away! I started I was sewing two things for every one thing that I sold. Everything was handmade by me. Snowsuits were my top seller that year. Soon, I had an e-bay store. I was busy for many years. I started slowing down when I had to start saying "18 doll clothes" instead of using the brand of the doll that I was selling for. I believe that hurt my business because when people would search by brand name, they would not find me. The difficult thing was other people selling handmade clothes were still using the brand name (and still do) while I had my listings pulled. This year, things slowed down so much that I was paying more for fees then I was selling. It is sad to say but I finally decided to shut down my store. -----------------...

Black Friday? How to save money on doll clothes

It is that time of year! Sellers like myself work all year to stock up for what they may need for the upcoming Christmas holiday season.  ♥ Sales: Watch for deals on Black Friday, Cyber Monday, November 30th, and December 7th (small business Saturday). Right now I am offering free shipping on $35 purchases on both Etsy and Amazon.  On E-bay, I have most items marked down to $11.99! Regular prices would be $13.99 and up. At this time of the year, I look at what I have sold last year, look at what I sold this week, and plan my sewing accordingly. Thinking toward sales, I look at what I sold last year, count up what I sold this year, and decide what needs to be marked down. Anything I haven't made in the past month could be marked down. I look over what I have and decide. The dilemma is whether people simply want me to lower my prices, put my regular prices on sale, offer shipping bundles, offer a coupon off of a certain amount of sales, or to offer free sh...
