If you've ever been online shopping, you must have come across websites like Etsy. Adorable projects, beautifully handmade items, and incredible projects that you wish you could make yourself. Well, now you can! Sewing to Sell by Virginia Lindsay will take you through ways to create professional grade projects so you can start your own craft business. Why not make money doing something you love? This practical guide will help you build your skills and create a successful business with your own two hands.

Sewing for profit can seem scary. Do you have to make up your own patterns? What are the legal aspects of selling something created from a non-original pattern? Lindsay will take you through all of these questions and more. From pricing your creations to finding your personal sewing style, you will come away from this book with a more well-rounded idea of what you want your business to be. With a bonus sixteen starter projects that you can sew and sell right away, starting a business has never been easier.

This book is made to teach and inspire. Inside the pages are interviews with four different women that have started up and are still running their own successful sewing businesses. If you are ever feeling down on yourself, just flip through their stories and remember: if they did it, you can do it, too. While the crafting field grows increasingly crowded, you can find your way to break through after gaining confidence from Sewing to Sell. Soon enough, your products will be flying straight from your hands to the hands of your customers!
