Hey there, embroidery enthusiasts! Today, we're going to dive into the colourful world of free-motion embroidery and how I turned my passion for stitching into a thriving business. But hold on tight, because we're not just going to talk about it—we're going to vlog about it!
What is free-motion?
So, what exactly is free-motion embroidery? Well, imagine taking a regular sewing machine and setting it free from the constraints of straight lines and patterns. With free-motion embroidery, you can create intricate designs, whimsical doodles, and even realistic portraits—all with just a needle, thread, and a whole lot of creativity.
Why Vlog About Your Business?
Now, you might be wondering, "why vlog about free-motion/sewing??". Through my vlogs, I can share my passion for sewing, tips and techniques and the highs and lows of small business life with fellow enthusiasts and other small business owners around the world.
From showcasing my latest creations to sharing tips and tricks, my vlogs are a colourful tapestry of inspiration. And let's not forget the joy of connecting with a community of like-minded stitchers who share the same love for all things sewing related!
Behind the Scenes: The Threadful Truth ;)
Now, let's pull back the curtain and take a peek behind the scenes of my free-motion embroidery business. It's not all rainbows and unicorns (although, I do stitch my fair share of those too!). There are late nights spent untangling thread, the occasional pricked finger, the eternal struggle of finding the perfect colour combination for my creations and events that just didn't go the way you hoped!
But hey, that's all part of the fun, right? And through my vlogs, I get to share the ups and downs, the triumphs and tribulations, and the sheer joy of turning a simple piece of fabric into a work of art.
Stitching Adventures
One of the best things about vlogging my free-motion journey is the opportunity to take my viewers on exciting adventures. Whether it's exploring local fabric stores, attending events, or even collaborating with fellow artists, there's never a dull moment in the world of free-motion embroidery/small business life!
