My shop offers bags (and eventually other items) made from vintage tea towels or new fabrics. One of my favorite fabrics - a hemp/cotton blend from Japan - is in the photo above.

I sort of rearranged my Booth at Building Character again. The same main big elements (i.e. tables, shelves) are the same, but I have rearranged some of the products around and changed displays.
I really like taking photos of it because I can more objectively see how others may perceive it.…

Today is Easter Sunday and having a teenager Easter is not fun anymore. We are going out to dinner today instead of me cooking like I have for the past 20 some years. WooHoo! But my teenage son does not want to go along. He would rather hang out with his friends. :(
I personally would rather be in my wood shop working on a new genie bottle or cremation urn. BUT we are going to dinner with my mother-in-law. I guess it will still be nice not having to cook. :)

Hi all! Good to be here. I love the crafty sites. I belong to one other (Etsy) and thought I would stretch my wings - ha! I'm glad these sites exist - it really provides for a crafty outlet. Especially in my case, not one of my friends even attempts to sew so much as a button. So, they may like my work - but are really not into the whole "crafting" scene of how tos and shows and so forth. I am from Pittsburgh (Dormont) and always keeping an eye out for craft shows, festivals, fairs and fundraise…
