1. Tell us a little about you and your shop:

I live in Wisconsin with my son, daughter, and husband of 5 years. I also have a step son who stay with us on the weekends. I've been a stay at home mom for the past 4 years. I opened my original Etsy shop about a year ago http://www.glitterstar.etsy.com/. I decided I had a few too many different items in it. I wanted to put my clothing items in their own place. I put a poll on my blog to help pick a new name and GlitterStitch was the winner. I'm just getting started with this new shop. I hope to add a lot more to it in the future.

2. Are you a full time crafter? What else do you do?

Yes I am a full time crafter. I don't always have time to do it though. I spend most of my day taking care of my kids and cleaning. The usual.

3. What is your favorite item in your shop?

My favorite item in my shop is my "Blow Me" shirt. I don't know why but I find it funny. I also have a strange sense of humor.

4. How did you get into this business?

I've always been into art and design. I took pretty much every art class I could in school. I went to a two year tech after high school and got my associate in graphic design. A couple years ago my husband was sent to Iraq and I needed something to keep my mind off of it. I bought my first sewing machine and taught myself how to sew. When he left our son was 18 months old. I quit my job so I could be with him full time. Four years later I haven't went back into the work force. Part of me thinks I should, but I really don't want too.

5. Anything new and exciting we should look for?

I plan on adding handmade clothes within the next few weeks.
