Finally, it really is all about me and me is crafting! I need two of me to stay on top of all that I want to do in a given day. I use my morning energy (my best) for blogging, crafting, and as little else as possible. I use my afternoon energy for boring chore and errand-filled life that gets in the way of crafting but is um...well sort of necessary in order to survive. Evenings take on a social hue and I can be found with people (husband, friends, maybe friends, but not too many relatives) and usually with knitting in my lap - its most conducisve to socializing at the moment. I actually knit in public and am not ashamed of it at all. To date I still must follow the lemming-like pattern, but hope to design my own one day if I can wrap my brain around the math - not my brains favorite passtime... Right now I am working hard to prep my Etsy shop for the upcoming fall. Im a big swapper and the crafts most on my list are paper, altered, recyled junk brought to new life, sewing, beading, and of course, knitting. Im toying with felting and I can cook like nobodys business.

craft interests: embroidery, fashion, gifts, holidays, home decorating, jewelry making, knitting, memory making, paper crafts, quilting, restyle, sewing

Re: At Long Last, the Obamarama Shawl

Jen- I have been looking for a shawl (that won't hurt my brain!) to watch during the innauguration festivities this week and thanks to you, I've found it! Already have the yarn and will get it on the needles today. I've made a note as to how many to cast on. Thanks again.

Re: Tips for Selling at a Craft Fair

Sarah, Thanks so much for sharing your experience. I have made note!
To find craft fairs Google "Indie Craft Fairs" for starters.
