We caught up with the brilliant and insightful Rosalind Bramlett a few weeks ago and have shared our conversation below.

Rosalind, appreciate you joining us today. How did you come up with the idea for your business?

My name is Rosalind. I am the founder of Designing Stitches. Designing Stitches is a business of all different crafts such as bed comforters, pillows, porch signs, aprons, purses, t-shirts, t-shirt blankets, and so much more. My mother was a seamstress and as a child, I would watch her sew. She was excellent at all types of crafters especially wedding gowns. Before I had kids, I would see all the time. The majority of my clothes, I made! There’s nothing like creating your on clothes and I was so proud.

Rosalind, love having you share your insights with us. Before we ask you more questions, maybe you can take a moment to introduce yourself to our readers who might have missed our earlier conversations?

I always wanted to be a fashion designer – that was my dream; however plans changed but now I have more time to be more . My most popular sell are t-shirt blankets. Customers send me their favorite t-shirts and I create unforgettable memories that will last a lifetime. It is so rewarding to see my customers’ reactions when they see the results. Sewing teaches me patience and gives me peace which brings out the creative side of me.

Can you share a story from your journey that illustrates your resilience?

I remember the first outfit I made when I was about 13 years old. My mom had bought everything I needed. I worked on that project all day and when she came home, I proudly showed her my work. She said, “ you did a great job but you sewed on the wrong side of the fabric “. OMG, talk about disappointment! But the next day, I got up early, took the outfit completely apart and sewed it back together again. My mom was so surprised!

Let’s talk about resilience next – do you have a story you can share with us?

I have never forgotten that. I believe that’s why now I challenge myself and I have a determination to be the best I can be. I don’t sell anything to my customers that I wouldn’t buy. I give everything 200% of my attention and I enjoy creating new things.
