After her first granddaughter was born, Faith Vibbert found herself with extra time and creative energy, so she brought out her sewing machine. Once she learned about Etsy, she hasn't put it away since. A love for '60s and '70s styles led her to create the nostalgic frocks her shop is now known for. Faith's dresses are such a hit, they've been featured on the cover of
Babytalk magazine and on Babble. She's sold over 400 "Layla" dresses and 200 "Laurens." Not bad for a "retirement" project!
