You must take your meds. I know when tough times come the first thing to go is the things that cost too much. You do need our meds and I think that your work of art is there to help you. Nothing is for nothing and I think that if you advertise your work, there will be takers. Not sure what the going rate is like for where you are but I know that in England, I attended a stitching show and some of them were being sold for more than £200! Depending on detailing. Best of luck!
