So far out of the 16 crochet items that I designed over 3 years ago, I have a little over half, formatted and uploaded to Etsy, Amazon & now Smashwords (which distributes to Barnes & Noble, Apple, Kobo and Sony). (Yes, I have plenty more designs of various items other than just these ornaments.)
I know that may not seem like much but it takes quite of bit of time, taking the pictures to the steps of the crochet patterns, then formatting them in Photo Plus and again formatting them into Word to go with the instructions. This is just for Etsy, then you have to reformat to upload onto Amazon & then yet another time to upload onto Smashwords.
If anyone who has found my blog through any of these purchases, I thank you for your purchase and your time in searching me out. I look forward to sharing more designs with you. This is just so very exciting. I love designing and it is just so amazing when I see that someone purchased something or even favored something from my Etsy shop. https://www.etsy.com/shop/KimberShooksDesigns
If anyone interested in taking a moment to share my blog, and my design links, I would greatly appreciate it. I'm interested in doing a give away with Rafflecopter, so please continue to watch for it.
If anyone that loves to crochet, sew and craft, please check out my blog designed just for my designs. It is a work in progress but please bear with me. I think it will eventually be a great success.

I am still writing if anyone was curious. I had got delayed due to Migraines and with my brother falling ill to Cancer, I really got side tracked. The crochet ornament designs was just another thing off my list of "I have always wanted to do..." and I really feel wonderful knowing I'm finally getting where I've always wanted to be.
Here is just a few of the items I have created...

Beautiful crochet work! Awesome job working on getting the pictures uploaded. It does all take time, but progress is progress. :)
ReplyDeleteSo sorry to hear about your brother falling ill and your migraines. Migraines are not fun and it is so hard when someone we love falls ill.
I am hoping that 2014 is a happy and healthy year for you and your family.
