Cricket Stitches

Contestant's Case to Win

This is based on the number of votes received.
Cricket Stitches is a mom owned and operated embroidery, monogramming and gift business. As a young child with a unique name I longed for something with my name on it; a mug, a bicycle license plate, anything but I never found it. That is why I love all things monogrammed. So Cricket Stitches evolved out of my love of monogramming and wanting to own a business of my own to help with the family finances.
Cricket Stitches offers a beautiful collection of gifts made to be one of a kind with your monogram. Cricket Stitches also offers embroidery services to small businesses; we offer shirts, hats, jackets, aprons, and bags.
As owner of Cricket Stitches, I successfully started and run the business on my own. I design, I maintain the web site, I am responsible for the billing and bookkeeping, I take inventory, and I do all the marketing, deliveries and all the monogramming. All the while running a happy, well fed and somewhat clean household.

Thank you for your consideration,
Lorelei Casanova-Hancock
