Craft Show Panic

The Flint Handmade Holiday Craft Market is this Saturday so I am having my usual last minute panic about not having enough ready. Which is obviously why I am still up and posting rather than working on more stuff. I don't know if anyone local reads this blog, but if you're near Flint, MI on Saturday between 10 and 4, please stop in and say hi. I will be in the Crim Fitness Foundation near the back. More details are on the flyer I posted a few weeks ago.

I am always intensely curious about what becomes of the supplies I make, so I always ask people who buy supplies from me to send pictures of the things they use them for. In October (and yes, I am just now remembering to post about it), I received a lovely message from Tracy--who bought the beads below--asking if she could mention my shop when posting about the adorable cupcake pincushions she made on her blog. Thanks again, Tracy for letting me see my beads out in the world.

More Customer Photos

In the last week, I've gotten a couple more convos from customers with pictures of the things they made from my yarn and felt beads. I love seeing what people come up with.

First, more from Strawberry Anarchy. She has made two more creations using my felt beads and promises more to come. (She bought lots of beads.)

A cute little felt flower brooch:


And this odd and adorable little doll:


Both are for sale in her Etsy shop.

And Jennifer sent this photo of the lovely scarf she knit from my superwash merino yarn. It looks super cuddly.

Etsy Purchase and Customer Creation

I just bought these two adorable little zip pouches as Christmas gifts from oblinaknit on Etsy.


They are just the cutest little things and so well made. I'm still trying to decide if I will keep the blue one for myself and find a different gift.

I always ask everyone I sell supplies to on Etsy to send pictures of the finished items if they feel like doing so. Strawberry Anarchy just did. She bought a bunch of felted beads from me a while back and used them to make this very colorful and creative necklace.


She has lots more beads so I await more fun creations in the future. It's so exciting to see what people have made out of the things I made.
