Robots Galore August 20, 2009

I have more to make but here is the first of my new Robot Blanket Stock.  I’ll be getting them on Etsy soon so check back for one to call your very own.  Each blanket is aproxomately 34″ x 40″ with fleece backing and prewashed for instant use.  Of course I happily take requests so let me know what you think would make a good combination.

I Heart Virtual Post Office March 25, 2009

My days of running to the post office and waiting in line for an hour or more are over!  That’s right, I was finally able to go online and have a package prepared for delivery and my own postal carrier picked it up the next day from my front door.  I love technology.  Plus it’s cheaper to pay for postage online.  You save 50 cents by printing it on your computer and then tape it to your package.  Add the fact that you can get free flat rate boxes for shipping and I am a very happy girl.  Oh happy day!

Thanks www.usps.com!

Online Contest Entries September 20, 2008

Flower Pin Cushion

I’m putting myself out there in the ether – YIPPEE!  This past week I have entered two contests and am almost ready to add new items to my Etsy store, be sure to check back soon to see more for sale there.  For the contests you can look at Craftstylish and VenusZine - the former is a Flower Power Challenge and the latter their annual CraftOff Competition – wish me luck!  Regardless, they were both fun to enter and I hope everyone has fun with them.  Woopie:)

I posted my Flower Pin Cushion you see here to CraftStylish and a How-To article for VenusZine on making my Changing Pad Clutch using shower curtains instead of fabric and iron-on vinyl.  It is easier to make that way but your color choices are obviosly more limited.  We’ll see how it goes.  I think they prefer repurposed materials instead of high maintenance creations from scratch.

Cheers Everyone!
