It gets to be a lot, and I've gone through a similar falling out of love phase too. I'm so glad that Spoonflower and Society 6 are working out so well for you! Your art is so adorable :) <br /><br />The Canadian dollar slump has not been kind to me as I pay for most of my sewing supplies in USD, which tacks on an additional nearly 30% to my fabric costs. It's just not feasible to continue making items and selling them for prices that were based on paying 30% less on materials! <br /><br />So, I hear ya - and just wanted to give you a virtual high five for giving yourself permission to do what works for you (or to stop doing the part that doesn't!). Have a wonderful rest of 2016!<br /><br />-Jenna (from CCEC)Jen Phttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10965795403827875632noreply@blogger.com
