Hello there. It’s been a while since I’ve reached out, and I want to share some updates with you all!
Firstly, I’d like to thank everyone for a wonderful year so far. I’ve had the privilege of connecting with so many new and familiar faces, while showcasing my embroidery at an array of exciting events and festivals. (This October, I even beat my monthly sales record!) I’m incredibly grateful to have turned what I love into a career—something that wouldn’t be possible without all of your support.
I know I told several of you in passing that my online shop would “hopefully be set up before the holidays.” Unfortunately, that hasn’t turned out to be a realistic goal for me.
My Darling Threads is a one-woman business, and the truth is, it’s hard to do it all sometimes. These past few years, I’ve focused heavily on vending at markets. This means the majority of my time is devoted to hand-making inventory, applying to, and selling at events around New England.
I realize having a stronger online presence is important, and it’s something I’m still aiming for. I am planning to make this more of a priority in 2027, after this holiday season wraps up.
What I’m hoping to do is have periodic online “drops” of my handmade pieces, and staple items like my prints and stickers available year round on my website. I am still planning to vend at in-person events, but there’s a possibility I will cut back in that area in order to grow my online shop.
As of now, the best way to support My Darling Threads is to continue showing up at my in-person events and inviting your friends and family to come along! I have quite a few shows scheduled throughout New Hampshire and Massachusetts before the end of this year! (I’m still adding some December dates to my calendar, so be sure to check back soon.) I would love to see you there.
With gratitude,
Erin | My Darling Threads
