Do you know anything about embroidery? I am well versed in doing all kinds of embroidery works. Can you suggest a way to earn money through the embroidery work?

I teach at a high school and there are some school groups who order sweaters, sweatshirts, vests, and light jackets. Some of them have a local woman in town do the embroidering. I don't know how much she charges but it must be reasonable. You might check with the schools in your area and sell not only your embroidering but also the sweaters, sweatshirts, vests and light jackets.

I think teaching is one of the best way to pass knowledge and create opportunities for tailoring for different people and also for oneself.

i love embroidery it is so pretty. i wish i was good enough at it. i have a friend that does aporns with what ever people want on them and she charges 75.00 an aporn. she makes really good money doing it. i see alot of stuff on ebay too. you could do a webpage and put some of your work on it and then take specail orders as well. you could make something and list it on ebay and see what happens too. here we have alot of arts and craft shows and people bring things like that and quilts etc and sell them there. we also have flea markets that they set up booths and sell there stuff there as well. i hope something i said gave you an idea or you can try one. good luck. i know there is alot of money to be made in doing it cause now days people dont do it there self they buy it and it is hard to find homemade stuff like that.

Your suggestion was so good. I felt very happy on seeing that. How can I create a web page on e-bay? How can I take orders? If you are interested can you give me orders? Is there any site in the internet to take orders?

i know you can open a store on ebay and there has to be free ways to make your own web page etc. my hubby uses ebay to sell all kinds of things. if you need help with ebay i know he will help you. he can explain how to get it all set up etc and he probably knows some site to do a web page at too. if you want to email him and i know he will help. he is better at it then i am. we have friends that cant figure out ebay at all and he list stuff for them then they pay him for the listing cost etc he doesnt make any money off of it it just helps people out. email him at tarakaieking2005@yahoo.com and in subject just put help me setting up ebay. i will have him look for the email
