Wow! I've had a busy few days on Etsy! Couldn't work out at first why I suddenly got so many messages. I usually get about four or five enquiries each day but suddenly I was getting about fifteen! It wasn't until my sister emailed me that I realised why...
I'd made the first page of ETSY! Whippee!! (Bottom right corner).
First of all a huge thank you to Erin from Anatomy of a Skirt for adding me in her favourite picks which is what my Verity Hope Dress was featured on. If you don't know Erin check out this wonderful bag she makes and sells in her Etsy shop...
It's made from industrial weight wool felt and comes in black too! Read about her adventures on her blog and her latest robot project on www.robotaday.com.
And a huge thank you to to Kalurah for taking the screenshot otherwise I would have missed it. She has an amazing blog called While They Play and sells a wonderful selection of these crochet patterns and more in her Etsy Shop. Here's a peak...
They're all on pdf so you can get them staraight away!
I've had lots of enquiries about whether I'll be bringing out more Verity Hope Dresses and Bloomers in Linen again and in the differents sizes. Well the answer is YES absolutely but I'll be cutting down on some of the sizes.
Doing seven sizes is great but it means I can't stock as many of the popular larger sizes as I want to so I'll probably stick with about four sizes at least for the moment. That's not to say I won't be doing size small or XS but they just won't appear as often. I'm overwhelmed at how popular the dress and bloomers have been and with all the supporting emails and Etsy conversations over the past months. It's always lovely to hear feedback and to chat with everyone.
I've got a lovely selection of printed fabrics which I intend to make up very soon, I'll probably do the short sleeve version with the prints...
as they go over Jeans well and I've got a tiny bit of the Linen left which I'll make up into the original Verity Hope dress without the satin edging...
And then once I've run out of all that it will be time to order in a new batch of the Linen again. I have to order it in huge quantities so need to make sure I have the space first and that I've run down sufficiently with stock. Think I'll go for the brown again but a darker one for a change and I really like the denim blue...
But I can be swayed?
Have a lovely weekend XXX
