Thanks you so much. What an incredible honor.
I have been a sewist since I was in grade school in the 1960's. I did some commission sewing in the 1980's but my real passion has been art. I have been a studio artist for 40 years. Here is a link to my website designed by my designer husband. He designed my Etsy banner too:
http://www.bobolinkbooks.com/MSB/Home.htmlI opened my first shop on Etsy in 2010 to help downsize my 30+ years of collecting Mid-Century Modern housewares. In 2011 I thought it was time to do the same for my pattern collection so I opened my CynicalGirl shop. Downsizing this collection has not been quite as successful. Selling my patterns seems to have given me free reign to buy more! But along with selling patterns I also blog about patterns and offer for free as downloads, some of the more unique things I find.

http://zipsanddarts.blogspot.com/I hope to be able to contribute to the team in some manner. I have some design and photoshop experience so I could offer advice there. I have also captained a team and initiated a team blog, an advertising website and other team events to keep the participation and morale high. Please contact me directly. I'd be happy to help.
Thanks again for the feature and for inviting me to the team. Looks like an enthusiastic group of sellers.
