Etsy Shop Vlog | My FIRST week back from Maternity Leave | Embroidering with a Newborn

Recorded in July 2022 Phew, I'm finally editing and catching up on vlogs. This video was recorded at the end of July 2022 when baby was about 2 months old. Join me as I figure out how to juggle a newborn and toddler with my embroidery shops.
If you are new here, I am Ashley and I operate TWO Etsy embroidery shops full time from my home studio. Over 3 years ago, I traded in my RN job and stethoscope to stay home and operate my businesses full time when I could no longer keep up with both! Now I have two beautiful little girls at home with me that keeps me busy alongside my shops.

Thank you 😊

[@2andor4]

Welcome back! I don't know how you do it. Does your 2 yr old still nap? My first child was never a good napper (or sleeper), but my 2nd child loved to sleep and took 2-3hour naps. It is amazing how much you can do one handed. Watching you hoop a shirt while still holding your baby was impressive.

[@AshleyMonograms]

My 2 year old does still take a 2 hour nap every afternoon. Some days that is the only time I get to work!

[@marnica]

OWWWWWWWWW❤

[@westbourne7034]

Great to see you back, busy as ever! You have such confidence and wiz through so quickly, unlike me! When you put the stabiliser on your fast frames do you tape it on the top or bottom of frame? Thanks

[@AshleyMonograms]

I tape it on the back/bottom of the frame.

[@jman5550]

Welcome Back Ashley!! May I ask what size font you use on jackets for a nurses name?

[@AshleyMonograms]

It's usually about 0.5" +/- depending on the font and length of text.
