I'm not a big coaster person, but I
do think your design is cute. As for
the little slippers/shoes I love them!!!

I love the slippers! The coasters are a cute idea and at first I
didn't see the light bulb, then I went ohhh! there it is! On
those, had you thought about making the bulb in a metallic
so the design of the bulb would really pop out? Just
a thought not a criticism.

Kathy...I LOVE your light bulb coaster! It is just too cute! The booties are precious! Great job!

I'm sorry your lip balm pattern was a dud. Do you have many smallish type patterns like that?

This is not directed at you....just something I've pondered for a long time that I thought I would share. Some of the patterns that are for sale online, individually I would never buy. Why? Something usually comes along in a crochet magazine that is similar and then I get all the rest of the patterns in the magazine too....all for the price of what some designers sell one pattern for online! (I am NOT knocking those designers.....this is just the way I think being on a tight budget and all.)

Maybe you could put them all your smalling patterns together as a plethora of fun little accessory patterns in a leaflet type format (.pdf) and sell them all at one price? That's what I've been thinking about doing with what little patterns I have come up with. I really think I'm just going to end up putting them up on my blog for free though.

Anyway....those are my thoughts. Take them or leave them!

Thanks for the compliments, maybe they are something
that will sell pretty good right now for me.

Good idea on the metallic, I hadn't thought of
that.

I am not making the patterns for sale right now,
just getting
some things like this done up to make the actually
pieces to sell them at etsy

It's the hardest thing to do is to come up with something
dif on there that no one else has to sell.

I wish that etsy would get their site back up and running
smoother, they have revamped and the bugs are
running rampent right now

Maybe this will help get rid of them

Ohhhh...for some reason I thought you were selling the patterns! Sorry about my 2 cents then.....please disregard!

I don't have much of an Etsy shop....my round ripple baby ghan is sitting there upon the shelf so very lonely! Nobody has bought him and he is sad. And now....with Etsy being all buggy and all....my link doesn't even work! *sigh* So I hear ya loud and clear!

I am probably going to go set up at the Farmers and Craft Market here and town pretty soon. I hope my baby things sell. If not, I am NOT lowering the price. Someone is always having a baby and I'm sure I'll know that special someone very soon if my ghan doesn't ever sell! If I can't sell it at the price I want then I'd rather give it away to someone who I know will love it.

No harm, I should have said

Etsy is great, but just wish they had waited til after the Holidays
to do this change over............they the reason it's buggy.....
they were in to big a rush
