Happy Etsy Day!!!

Happy World Etsy Day everyone!!!
What is Etsy Day??? I hear some of you ask.....


"Concept: So many people don’t know what Etsy is. Wouldn’t be great to do a grassroots, marketing blitz to raise awareness and create a buzz. The idea is to create a mystery about Etsy. We want to educate the public by throwing the word out there in mass numbers without telling them what it is, thereby getting people to notice it everywhere, wonder about it, talk to people, and eventually researching it on the internet.

** Remember: For this one day we are asking that you just promote Etsy, not your personal shop. United, we stand to gain the most!

*** With the recession looming over us, we have a great opportunity to explain to people that there’s a need to go back to simpler times ie. supporting artisans and craftmen(women)."


Take a look HERE to see why us Etsians should celebrate!

Spring Rain Fabric Basket

I recently finished a room sized rag rug. Since that project, I have been making rag quilts and baskets. I love the look of crocheted fabric strips. My latest creation is Spring Rain Fabric Basket, made by crocheting fabric strips. Click HERE to visit my Esty shop if you are interested in purchasing this particular basket. I will also be listing baskets in my new Artfire Studio as well.
