Free as a Bird


Finally finished with my big order, YAY!! So I am taking a break from orders and from Market Day this month. I hope to be back at Market Day again in November though. I am making myself a tote bag in my favorite color, maroon/burgandy/wine. It is gorgeous! I have to take a break from making what other people want and make what I want for a little while. I LOVE to crochet, but I feel like i am getting burnt out. And if I ever really hated crocheting, that would be horrifying!! So I'll take a break and make some fun stuff I have been waiting to work on. I told my hubby, I am gonna make things that I want to make and if people would like to purchase them great, if not, that's okay, because I am enjoying myself and that is all that matters. And I just found out that my best friend is having a boy!!!! So I am all set to make her TONS of stuff!!! My etsy shop is still up and running, although I may not be able to add new things as quickly as I would like. But that's life. I was never really in this for the money anyway. The most joy I get is from creating something that brings a smile and happiness into someone else's life. I am off to work on my tote bag!!!
Oh and I still have some peek-a-boo bunnies available and will be taking special orders for these since they are sewn and not crocheted. :)

Market Day Update

Market Day is next Saturday, Sept. 27 from 10am-3pm at the Shilling Center on Kadena Air Base. Come on out and support the crafty people. Buy handmade for Christmas, buy handmade for baby gifts, just buy handmade. :) My friend Sara and I will have halloween costumes for kids for sale, handmade, of course!

Sara will also be available for custom baby sling orders. And as always I will have a table full of cuteness. I am working on some really soft fleece bunnies with long ears that are totally huggable and squeezable! I am gonna TRY to finish up some ninja bunnies this week to add to my table also. No new amigurumis this month as I am working numerous custom orders right now, but as soon as I am done with those orders, I will have fresh amis available!


Please tell all your friends here in Okinawa to come on down to Market Day. Buy your Christmas gifts early. :)

Hope to see you all there!

I will only be able to take a limited amount of custom orders before Christmas, so if you are wanting to place an order please do so soon. :)
Also, anything not sold at Market Day will be added to my etsy shop on Sept 27 or 28.

And for anyone who visits my site to see fun stuff I have made here are a few things I have made this past year....

Keyfob Madness


Between all my special orders, I am TRYING to make things to fill my table for the upcoming Market Day. There seemed to be some interest in my keyfobs last time, but I only had 2 made for last month. So I spent all my free time yesterday ironing and measuring and voila. Here are my 14 keyfobs.
