Does Your Job Cause Stress?
By Stephen Bucaro
If your job causes a lot of stress, taking up a hobby that
lets you work with your hands can help you wind down.
That's why Erica Basile took a class on quilting. After
making a quilt for her daughter, Erica put all of the
leftover squares into a kit as a gift for a friend.
After Erica got married and moved to Boston, she didn't
want to go back to work, so she decided to try to sell
some of her quilts on eBay. Within three months she made
$6,000.00 on eBay.
But Erica found that making quilts from scratch was very
time consuming. She thought it would be easier if quilts
came in a kit with ...
... precut fabric squares. When she
mentioned this to her friends, they thought it was a good
idea. So did the Small Business Administration, who gave
her a $40,000 loan to start Easy Quilt Kits, Inc.
She created a website to sell her quilt kits, and within
eight weeks it received 61,000 visitors. Visit
http://easyquiltkits.com and click on the "Patterns" menu
to see pictures of Erica's quilts. There are some very
beautiful and boldly colored quilts, such as the "Tequila
Sunrise Quilt" and "Rosebud Quilt" - plus a French Quilt
Purse and a Needle and Bead Holder Travel Case Quilt.
The Easy Quilt Kits website is an example of a complete,
high-quality web site. It has links to resources, About us,
FAQ, and much more. Be sure to sign up for the Bee-Line
Newsletter. It gives insight into Erica's experiences:
from starting a craft company, to the latest laugh-out-
loud journeys she and her workers share. You will love the
humor and the quilting tips!
This is an example of how you can get paid for adding
value. Erica and her workers add value by designing the
quilts, selecting quality fabrics, and providing the
quilts in convenient kits. All this saves work for the
quilter, who might never even get started enjoying the
craft of quilt making if they had to go through the whole
process themselves.
You can start a Web business based on the principle of
adding value to any craft or endeavor, for example
collecting, cooking, sewing, painting, raising pets, wood
working, and many more. If you don't believe there's money
in providing craft kits, click here:

After moving to Boston, Erica didn't want to go back to
the stress of working at a regular job. It looks she won't
have to now, since she expects to make $115,000.00 this
year.
