In this episode of Simply Hooked: A Crochet Podcast, I sit down with Sarah Carney, the talented maker behind Blue Tomato Handmade. Sarah creates adorable felt play foods along with beautifully crafted polymer clay ornaments, stitch markers, and sweater clips.

As a stay-at-home mom homeschooling her two daughters, Sarah opens up about how she juggles motherhood, homeschooling, and running a thriving handmade business. We talk about her creative process, the challenges of wearing multiple hats, and the joy of turning passion into a sustainable business.

Inside this episode, you’ll hear:
✨ How Sarah balances homeschooling, family, and her handmade shop
✨ The inspiration behind her felt play foods and polymer clay creations
✨ The challenges (and rewards) of running a handmade business as a mom
✨ Encouragement for makers who dream of building a business while raising kids

If you’re a maker, parent, or creative entrepreneur looking for inspiration to chase your dreams, this episode will speak directly to you.
