and another thing!

I've now got a facebook fan page set up for quilted chaos for all my friends on facebook to keep up with what I'm doing!

Since I have a couple of extra days off work for the holidays I thought I'd make an early new year's resolution, to get three more items made and listed on Etsy - now I just need to figure out what they are going to be!

Had a great day earlier this week - my friend Holly came over on Tuesday to do some quilting and share the glee of trying something new... I think we both had fun!

more sales!

Well, I've made a few more dollars from my crafting - but not directly through etsy. A few people at work got me to make them some custom items for Christmas presents but I didn't see any point in listing them since I already had the sale made and there wouldn't be any shipping involved. Since I don't have any pictures of them on the computer I'll share this one instead - a Christmas present for my mother-in-law.... happy holidays everyone!

an etsy update!

Well - so far, so good! I've made 1 sale in 10 days, which from what I can tell from reading is a pretty good start for a small shop. I've spend quite a bit of time reading through tips and tricks, "how-to" posts and I've learned quite a few things and figured out I've got some work to do, especially since I'd like to actually turn this into an actual source of income! First up - more product and better photos! Natural light is definitely your friend as you can see from the photo below if you compare it to the others in the etsy listing.

YIPPEEEE!!!!

I made first sale from my etsy shop quiltedchaos!!!! It's a bit of a cheat - one of my good friends in Halifax saw something she just had to have but still - a sale!!!

She just loved this bag.... I do too - I almost kept it *lol*

I did it!!!

Well, I finally did it - after talking about it and thinking about it for two years I've finally opened an Etsy shop. Only a few things on it so far but there'll be more soon! Now I just need to find customers!!!

have a look! quiltedchaos
