This article is brought to you by Brown Paper Stitch, my business that makes your wardrobe pawesome by embroidering your pets on clothing.
Hello again, and hello 2022! I say this every time, but I never mean to take extended hiatuses on Brown Paper Bag. I miss writing and connecting with others. But alas, the holiday season got away from me; , and my husband and I closed on our first home (!). Between embroidery, house stuff, and my roles at , I had to take the pressure off of Brown Paper Bag.
But, I’m back! And I wanted to start this new year by sharing some of what I stitched during my time away (from the blog). It’s not everything, but I did a lot of stick-on patches this year—upwards of 40. And what was interesting was that many people didn’t even stick the patches on clothing. When faced with where to stick the patch, some folks framed the pieces. I even converted a Shar-Pei patch into an ornament on a Christmas tree.
Looking forward in 2022, one thing I’d like to do this year is to expand my product line. I’ve got a growing list of product ideas and intend to launch at least a couple of them this year. Soon, I’m moving into my own studio/office space (as opposed to sharing it with my husband), so I’m hopeful that will give me a creative boost to do even more things. (And be more organized.)
As I’m getting back in the swing of things here, expect to see more regular content that you’re used to—of my work and other creatives’ artwork and products that inspires me and will hopefully inspire you, too.
