Vintage Dresses?

I've always wanted to expand Sugarplum Boutique *someday* to include sewn items made with sweet vintage materials... I'm sewing Fallyn's Easter dress from a vintage sheet and wondering if I should make a couple extra dresses at the same time to try to sell... And some pillowcase dresses. I love pillowcase dresses. I don't mean just pillowcase-style, because there's lots of those out there. I mean the real deal...sweet little sundresses made from actual pillowcases. I have a stash of adorable vintage pillowcases just waiting for the right time to expand to include stuff like that in Sugarplum Boutique.

Since there is so much hand-sewn stuff for babies and kids out there these days using modern prints, I don't want to try to compete with that. Plus, I just looove those sweet original vintage prints so much, not to mention the vintage softness that you can only find with vintage pillowcases and sheets. There's just nothing like it!

The main dilemma is the time commitment as a SAHM with young kiddos. These years are priceless and I'll never get them back. And I'm being protective with these next several months since our firstborn goes to Kindergarten this fall, plus there are so many things I need to get done around my own house! So all that, coupled with the gamble that there may or may not be buyers out there, the time it takes to put it on Etsy...

What to do, what to do...

Perhaps I can coerce one or two of my sewing friends, like this gal, to help a little... :)
