you need to get in touch with a publisher...these are great and different than any I have ever seen; and I have been crocheting for almost 60 years. Love the rabbits, and the chickens and the ladybugs....just love them all. Good work.

Hi, thank you. I have been crocheting over 25 years. I have only been doing the doilies about 5 years. I have sent the patterns by email to a couple of magazines, but did not get anywhere. I don't want to sell the rights to my patterns. I also have them on the kindle and am looking into self publishing but I am at a stand still with that. Through a publisher from what I have read it is very expensive and not in my budget. I have checked into create space, but I am not figured out how it is done . I know you can pay someone but that is not in my budget right now either. So I have to research it some more.

Have you considered selling your patterns yourself directly through your Etsy shop?

Hi,
I would not mind selling a print copy in my Etsy shop but I still need to find a way to create a book and a place that will print them. That is why I have signed up with create space. I just have to find out how to make the book. And that would cost more than sending the patterns in pdf format like I do now. I would like to make a book with a few patterns in it.
