Felicia is the owner of “Thread Me Knot”, a small shop that sells off her Facebook VIP page and her Etsy shop as well. What started as a custom canopy business almost 7 years ago has now become so much more. When Felicia first started her business, she told her husband that she would never EVER make clothes. Over six years pass by and “here we are”! Felicia has self-taught herself to make absolutely everything! Every item in her shop “has been cut, sewn, and hemmed by me” says Felicia. Felicia and her husband have been together for ten years, and despite all the beautiful girl clothes she makes, she actually has 4 boys! Felicia makes clothing for boys and girls. This has given her the chance to contribute to all the adorable girl clothes on the market, but also to expand the desperate need for boy clothes within the small shop community! She creates custom stylish pieces for her four boys and all other boy moms that have a hard time finding styles they like elsewhere.
She also sews for a few pattern companies, fabric companies and showcases.
