About Ava
11-year-old Founder
Meet Ava, the 11-year-old founder of Thread and Needle! Ever since she was old enough to hold a needle and thread, Ava has been fascinated by the art of sewing. She would spend hours finger knitting, attending sewing classes, watching YouTube tutorials, and practicing different techniques until she had mastered them. Her love of sewing grew into a passion for creating handmade gifts, and she began making everything from hand-sewn stuffed animals to personalized tote bags for family and friends.
Last Year's Business Fair
Booth Setup
Preparing her booth is a fun adventure in itself, filled with the excitement of displaying her beloved sewn elephant plushies, tote bags, eye-catching banners, and zipper pouches. Ava has thoughtfully designed her space, incorporating a mirror and strategically placed shelves to enhance the visual appeal and allow her craftsmanship to shine.
Selling
Learning how to sell her products effectively, Ava embraced the essence of the hustle with the innocence and enthusiasm unique to an 10-year-old. She engaged visitors with a bright smile as she embarked on a journey into the art of entrepreneurship.
Winner of "Most Impressive Presentation"
Last year, Ava's dedication and creativity were celebrated in a memorable way at the Acton Children’s Business Fair Indy, where she was awarded the "Most Impressive Presentation." Receiving a certificate of excellence, Ava was overjoyed and deeply honored by this recognition.
