If you love sewing, then you probably already know and love the handmade community over at Etsy. Where ever you are in the world you can set up your own store selling either your hand-made treasures or crafting supplies. Or you can buy from many of the small and independent sellers – people just like you.
I have my own store there too, called Print or Plain, a reference to the bags I used to sew and sell. Before this one I had another store selling soaps and beauty products that did really well.
It's a great place to support small businesses, and buy awesome fabrics, and other sewing supplies. Did you catch the Best Fabric Shops on Etsy feature from earlier this year? These stores are all worth checking out – interesting fabrics and low overheads can lead to some really great finds. And most of them offer exclusive discount codes for SSE readers too.

Love your post about the best fabric shops on Etsy.
I don’t have a favorite shop. I like shopping Etsy because I like supporting the small business shops. All these big chain stores has caused many small business owners to close. There are so many great shops on Etsy I can’t choose a favorite. I just search for what I want and go with the shop that has it.
