Review: A Good Book to Get You Started - This is a good book to get you started and there’s quite a bit of general info crammed into it. It’s good for new sewing businesses or if you’re just starting to think about it. It’s a great way to check to see if you’ve covered everything you need to be doing. The info can be a little vague, but it’s more of an idea generator than a step-by-step. For a really in-depth guide you’ll want to find resources about how to sell your crafts online or how to price crafts and things you make to sell. It is worth noting that this book is from 2014 and well before world changing events. Some of the images are looking a little dated and the project price points are way off now. Expect to add $15-$20 or more to the suggestions. She has a second book in this series that covers other areas of selling and is also a great resource.
Review: A Wealth of Information for the Beginner - I'd love to thank the author. My mother owned a brick & mortar store and although I learned principles from her, Virginia Lindsay does a comprehensive book for the beginner. This publication is more than an overview. She advises on when and how to economize, tools, workspace, resources, project ideas, advertising, how to price and recommended price-points on her own project ideas.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Wealth of Information for the Beginner
*by S***L on October 31, 2021*

I'd love to thank the author. My mother owned a brick & mortar store and although I learned principles from her, Virginia Lindsay does a comprehensive book for the beginner. This publication is more than an overview. She advises on when and how to economize, tools, workspace, resources, project ideas, advertising, how to price and recommended price-points on her own project ideas.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ What I needed to get started.
*by M***D on January 13, 2021*

How do I sell locally and on line is the question, SEWING TO SELL by Virginia Lindsay has some of the answers. It is “The beginners guide to starting a craft business”, a book I purchased in 2019, glanced at in 2020 and am now taking seriously. To date, I have given away more crafts than I have sold mainly because I make money in other ways. But making stuff cost and I do not have a credit card or an unlimited supply of money. I have been asked on more than one occasion by people willing to pay: Do you have a website? My answer has always been no. So what does this book have to offer? SEWING TO SELL talks mostly about what to make and how to make it. In the appendix is the administrative stuff like taxes and setting up a business but it is just an overview. This book simply gives the reader the encouragement to know that she can make money making things like grocery totes. The “but” is: you have to have an inventory. This book was exactly what I needed, an overview of selling what I make. I did not want a big 300+ page manual of setting up a business from beginning to the first customer- that would be overwhelming. Somethings you can just google. Written by Marsh L F Randolph This book is part of my personal reading library. The review is my honest unsolicited opinion.
