Today I have the wonderfully talented Maggie from Gussy Sews
hanging out answering some questions (the abc's!) and throwing a little shop credit your way!
Now first, meet Maggie!
The sassy & sweet one woman show behind Gussy
She taught herself how to sew 2yrs ago, quit her job and built the Gussy empire
(okay maybe empire sounds cheesy, but lets just say Maggie is bad ass)
Between writing a successful blog (with great business tips & tutorials),
being featured in magazines, speaking at conferences, staring in "how to do your hair" videos =)
and making all the fabulous products for her line..
she also somehow finds time to take her cute pup Bauer out for walks,
maintain a healthy (and adorable) marriage.. and be so down to earth all at the same time!
I asked Maggie to play the ABC's or 20 questions..
