Etsy Shop Launch Preview

Above is a sneaky peek at some of the items that will be listed in my Etsy store that’s opening this week!  How exciting!

To draw out the excitement (probably more for myself that anyone else!) I’m going to list one item every day.  Of course, I will document the items going up for sale here first, so you can check back here to see what’s being listed!

The first garment will go up this evening, so until then…

I knew when I chose to go freelance as a pattern cutter that for my first couple of years at least, my working life would be one of  feast and famine, it’s the nature of an industry with just two major deadlines a year.  So, from before I started work I’d been thinking about how to keep myself afloat during those times of freelance drought, and the answer was pretty logical.

My job is to pattern cut clothes and I love making things, so why not keep my skills up to date and hopefully improve them further by designing and making clothes and selling them?  I never intended to start my own label, but it seems that is what I’m now doing!  My etsy store will open this weekend.

So, to make sure I’m doing this online brand thing properly, I’ve had a bit of a reshuffle of my internet presence, which I’ll admit has been stressful.  I’ve probably spent more time coding HTML and CSS this week than I have sewing clothes and the custom Tumblr theme I wrote was a total waste of a day!  I still don’t understand how I went wrong there.  But the rest of it is looking good and, hopefully is working!

You can reach all of the important pages on the links on the right, and you can contact me at the top of the page, but here’s the key ways you can keep up to date with me:

TUMBLR | I’m keeping my Tumblr because, well Tumblr is ace, but I’m going to use it more as a visual diary of inspiration.  Lots of pretty things, no ramblings.

BLOG | That’s here.  Here you’ll find updates about my etsy store and updates about my life.  Plus, the books, knitting and food based posts that used to appear on my Tumblr will move here so they can be a bit more wordy.  You can subscribe to the RSS to make life easier.

ETSY STORE | Obviously.  You’ll be able to view and buy my designs here.  How exciting!

TWITTER | My stream of consciousness and a lot of general updates about what I’m currently eating/cooking/craving/etc.

EMAIL | And of course feel free to get in contact the old fashioned way!
