Have you ever been stitching and thought, “Could I do this for a living”?

I’ll never forget the first time I saw a stranger admiring one of my own designs in a national magazine. Or the shock of walking into a little shop on holiday and finding my kits on the shelf.

These moments are pure magic. They are the reward for turning a beloved hobby into a real, thriving business.

But let’s be honest: the path from “passionate hobbyist” to “professional designer” can feel confusing and lonely. I know, because I made the mistakes and navigated the hard parts myself.

Now, you don’t have to. I’ve poured everything I learned into a single, comprehensive guide so you can get a head start and avoid the costly errors.

Is This You? If You’ve Ever…

  • Dreamed of selling your patterns but felt overwhelmed by where to even start?
  • Worried about tackling the “business stuff” like pricing, websites, and marketing?
  • Felt a pang of frustration when your passion is met with a simple, “That’s nice, dear”?
  • Wished you had a mentor to ask for real, honest feedback on your designs?
  • Feared that without a formal business or art degree, you might not succeed?

…Then you are in exactly the right place.

Don’t Just Take My Word For It

“I have read your ebook from cover to cover three times and am most impressed. It is thorough, friendly and very, very informative. A great deal of this I have found out by trial and error over the past five years when I could have saved a lot of heartbreak and money if I could have read it before I started! You have highlighted the benefits and also the pitfalls as well as giving sound basic advice. Thank you both for a very worthwhile project.” - Elizabeth Almond, Blackwork Journey
