Marie Anne I did quite a bit of cross stitch several years ago, but I gave it up. I don't do much of anything now except a bit of crochet. Working on projects for the VA patients now.

sunnflr Congratulations! I hope you have many more sales. I've saw Etsy on some blog when dropping Entrecards, but never knew what it was all about. Is it just for crafters? Is there a website you join and put your stuff up for sale on? What is it all about?

Marie Anne Yes, its just etsy.com and its just for handcraft items, or supplies to make handcrafted items. It costs .20 to list an item I think for 3 or 4 months, and then you pay a small percentage when it is sold. I listed a couple of my baby blankets and...

kimbers867 Thanks, I just had her take pictures of all the ones she has made. The stinker wrote down a name for each one which will be perfect for when we list them. Thanks for the advice.

Marie Anne Can't hurt. It's only .20 to list each item for errrrr, 3 or 4 months, I think, and then a small percentage if/when the item sells. If your bill is under $1 they wait until it accumulates. I listed 4 things so it was only .80 so I didn't have to pay...

cutepenguin How exciting! I sold one set of the little angels I make on etsy, and I was so excited. I've had some luck selling knitting on craigslist, actually - people post that they need items knitted for their stores, and I've knitted a few.

sunnflr Thanks for explaining. Sounds good for crafters. I don't sew or anything like that so it wouldn't be for me. I hope you continue to have success with them.

Heather Echola When I looked up the recipe it looked a little complicated, but had good pictures. I am anxious to get out of e mail and look at yours that you have made.
