Yes, yes, yes! Go for it!
Cute cartoony sheep are even better than realistic ones! You'd just have to work out characteristic features of the different races.

It is sad that you know that gap too – I have a friend who had a little business for years, afraid to make enough money to make it worth the work because then she'd have to pay her own health insurance (earning almost nothing, she was covered by her husband's insurance). The gap started ridiculously low: If you earn over 400 Euro per month, you…[Read more]

Thank you so much Jill! Glad you like my design.

Beautiful piece @susan-heyn! I'll put the link in my newsletter.

Got another patternfish newsletter mention: https://www.patternfish.com/newsletters/latest

Thank you, @karen-robinson, for your thoughtful reply! You are right, the pricing depends on my goals with the Ebook. I think I will treat this as an experiment and test whether an Ebook drives more sales.

Thanks, too, @linda-tieu! 12 really sounds good.

I had a matching hat and cowl set that I set up as an ebook (I've since removed the ebook option). Each pattern was $5, so together would have been $10. I priced the ebook at $8.

That's phantastic, @elaine-vandiver!

All patterns together are 14.50 Euro, the single patterns range between 3 and 4 Euro.

Yeah, @elaine-vandiver! Those are all great news! Congratulations!

I will find a good spot in SF but away from the Super Bowl craziness
