Artfire Shop

Well, I jumped in and opened an Artfire shop.  http://www.artfire.com/users/katecache

Hopefully, something will click!  It's been very slow lately.  Other people have been posting the same frustrating posts on the forums so I guess I shouldn't feel so bad.  Misery loves company!

I also have some of my items in a local shop.  Cochran Mills Merchantile.  With all that exposure, I sure hope I have a good holiday season.

A New Granddaughter

I am so very happy to welcome Vivian Kathleen to our family!  My sweet granddaughter was born 10/1/10.  I can't wait to hold and love her.....

She was the bright spot in a rather crazy week.  We  found out we needed a new furnace and the work week was just off the charts.

I already started to make things for her as I do for my other granddaughter.  I love finding new projects to make for them.

Outer Banks

After not going to the beach for quite a few years, My husband and I joined our daughter, Stephanie, her husband, Ryan and our granddaughter, Ade in the Outer Banks.  It was so good to be at the beach again!  The weather was wonderful and we had a great time with our Ade!  It is such a wonder to see things through a child's eyes!

And the ultimate surprise for a yarn lover, an awesome yarn shop!  I could have spent an entire day in the shop!  That certainly topped off my vacation!  I, of course, had to buy yarn and patterns!  I don't have enough of either, you know! :-)

Baby Shower

Well, Jenna's baby shower was wonderful.. for which I am very grateful.  I certainly enjoyed making the centerpieces and favors but I am also glad that it is over and I can now concentrate on my Etsy shop again.

I managed to get three orders in the last couple of weeks.  Two Hedwig the Owls.  You can tell the new Harry Potter movie is soon to be released.  I just finished the last one today and mailed it out.

Onward to Halloween and Christmas items......

Another Blog Feature

I am so excited to be included in another blog as the feature shop!  It is a very nice site and I am offering a giveaway to help promote the occasion.

I am keeping my fingers crossed that it will draw customers to my site and hopefully bring some sales!

Sales aside, though, it is always nice for the ego to be recognized for your talent...makes all the work (shouldn't really say work because it is a joy) worthwhile.....
