AND - one of my husband's friends bought it the moment I put in the last stitch. He said his sister "loves this stuff" and bought it for her for a Christmas present. I had no idea what to charge so I told him $35.00 and he ordered a second one!I never even left my rocking chair and made $70.00 -This is great! Not only is it profitable but I love it!I knew if I lived long enough I'd find something that I truly loved, that I could afford to do and put a little 'pin money' as my mother used to call it,in my hand. Boy, am I glad you have a web site.Diane, New York""Dear Ruglady,To begin with, I want to thank you for your words of encouragement. After making many crocheted rugs and selling them to friends, I decided to try our local farmers market. In order to build up an inventory, this meant ordering lots of fabric and spending lots of money. I'm not good at spending money as I always worry about never having enough. Your kind words helped me climb that wall of self-doubt and I now have a flourishing business. My only problem now? Too little time and too many orders! I don't suppose you can help me with that one? Carol""GUESS WHAT? Last week a small craft shop offered to sell my rag baskets and rag rugs that I make!!!! I just mentioned in conversation what kind of craft that I make and since that was something different than what they sell already, they asked if I could bring in some of my items to show them!!! They were very interested in what I do and offered to sell them at their store. THAT'S TWO STORES THAT WANT MY WORK!!!! I'm thrilled and I wish there are more hours in the day to make my rugs and baskets Just thought I'd share this with you. I'm excited how this all came about... Thank you for your encouragement! I sincerely appreciate it!Thanks a million! Have a blessed day!SharonGridley, IL"
