Please describe the space where you create (ie, sewing room, the forest, etc):
At the moment I use my big couch with a very small table in the living room.
My boyfriend is getting crazy of all the stuff on the couch and there is no room left for him .
Next month we’re moving to a big house and I get my own ’sewing room’ I’m looking forward to it.

Do you have any pets or family involved in your business?
I got one little crazy black&white cat named Skillz.
He’s not involved in my business although he wants to. He always wants to play with the buttons and sleep on the fabrics.

What is your favorite of your current products?
At the moment I love my latest wallet. It’s a small patchwork wallet with a zipper made of different fabrics in the colors yellow, pink and orange.
My preferences change every time I design and create a new product. http://en.dawanda.com/product/1024850-Little-wallet-patchwork-pink
