A wannabe hoodie is now an afghan

Sometime last year I was crocheting granny squares to make a hooded sweater for my granddaughter Mariah. Well, time and ambition got away from me and I never did make all 80 or so squares. I decided to just stitch them all together and call it a day. Now I have a nice squishy baby or doll afghan in my shop.

Rapid Cart on ArtFire

Have you seen the new Rapid Cart widget to the right of my blog? This is a new feature on ArtFire . This little widget allows customers to purchase my goodies directly, without being redirected to another website or requiring them to create an account anywhere. Makes things easier, right? You can put this widget on just about any website, turning the website it into a mini store.

Have you signed up for an ArtFire seller's account yet? If you haven't now is the time to sign up. Instead of charging listing and selling fees, Art Fire charges a monthly membership fee. The normal charge is $20 a month, but they are offering a limited number of accounts for only $7 a month. If you sign up now, you'll get to keep that discounted price for life.

Viking Hat Pattern

I've decided to make my Viking Hat pattern available to purchase through both my Etsy shop and my ArtFire shop. Right now I only have the baby (newborn) and toddler size listed. I still have to type up the child and adult sizes. These are all crochet. I want to also put up the knit versions, but I need to make a couple hats to check the patterns(s) first.

The Farm Chicks Surprise Give-a-way

I love reading The Farm Chicks web journal. There's always something good to look at. They have some delicious looking recipes that are on my to do list.

Anyways....they are having a surprise give-a-way. We don't know what it is yet, but I'm sure it will be great!
