I have discovered a wonderful hobby that uses lots of my skills.
I am making and publishing 18" doll clothes patterns.
I get to look at Pinterest for inspiration.
I can buy lots of different fabrics and embellishments. (I suppose you could call these skills :) )
I get to sew. Which is a lot of fun.
I can now play with my vector drawing program with a purpose.
I am able to let my imagination soar to create doll designs.
I am hoping that I will be able to improve my photography skills as I try to market my designs.
I would be happy to just do all this for free but being retired and on a limited income I have decided to join lots of others like me and have a go at selling my patterns.
I have kept the price low since that patterns are instant downloads that I only have to make once and I am publishing them in the global market place, which is huge.
Come and take a look at my Craftsy shop.
If you are not already registered with Craftsy I can highly recommend it as a great place to find lots of patterns for all sorts of things and also some interesting on-line classes and a great on-line shop. They are always having fabric and yarn sales but they cater for lots of different crafts. See my side bar for links.
