I started by home based business embroidering designs and logos for family and friends. The towels, aprons, handkerchiefs and tote bags I embroidered were given to friends and family for birthdays, holidays and weddings. My colleagues, friends and family encouraged me to market my products to the public. I began participating in craft shows and festivals throughout the Dallas/Fort Worth Area. The feedback I received was encouraging and decided to expand my product line and added embroidered notecards and greeting cards to my product line.
