Well, It's not reeeally a studio, it's more of a wee extra bedroom but it works for me and it's where all my crafty bits get stored (and if you're a crafter, you know there are lots of bits!)
The funny thing is only about 10% of my work actually gets done in here. I spend about an hour on the sewing machine before taking everything downstairs to the living room. Most of the work is by hand so I find it a lot more fun doing it in front of the TV (although I don' t recommend watching movies with sub-titles, you'll either sew your fingers together or completely lose track of the plot :) I thought I'd share a few of these random photos while getting you all caught up with monstery news!
Firstly, I'd like to say that I found out last Saturday that I have a space at the Old Strathcona Farmers Market until April.3. yay! I'll be in a couple of different spots but will be definitely be there. I might get a few weeks beyond that too but I'll just have to wait and see. I've also applied for some spring craft shows so I'll be posting them as I get confirmation!
I'm hoping to reopen my Etsy store next week. I've been trying to accumulate enough stock so the etsy monsters aren't needed for the market and I can keep them separate. I think I finally have enough to do this! yay! I'll post as soon as they are available!
I've also been really excited to make more monsters out of re-purposed fabrics. I started making big, fancy ones last fall but just recently started designing ones that are similar size to the sock monsters. I'm hoping to have a few of these available for on-line sales as well
Well, that's about it for now! I have to get up at 6:00 tomorrow so I need to go to bed!
Have a great weekend!
