    I do a lot of other stuff inbetween as well. I am trying to paint in watercolour more misses than hits tho!
    I used to do a lot sewing and knitting for the children when they were small. Now I do it for myself in craft stuff.

    Stuffing each individual square must have taken a long time....and patience :)
    I have done a couple of quilts a long time ago and they are on top of the wardrobe as we downsized and havn't got anywhere to put them:eek:

    It did, but was worth it.

    BTW - on the other forum. Be very careful about trying to sell things as you will be reported for advertising.
    There are some funny people about,

    Better to let people contact you if they want to buy something.

    Hi everyone, just a quick question. How do you find buyers for your 'sockies'? Do you advertise, or is it word of mouth, ebay, or craft fayres? Just wondered as I'm gonna give it a go and try and start to sell a few soon, I was thinking of advertising....any comments would be welcome.:D

    I just sell mine by word of mouth and people showing them around.
    Wouldn't advertise as there isn't enough margin to pay fees.
