Help Gina:

So you guys have worked miracles for me. Can you work a miracle for someone else? A long-time reader of *! is running up against hard times- she's in the process of a divorce, she was laid off from her job, her ex isn't helping her support her...

Will Trade Cookies For Traffic.

nobody@vox.com(shush now) — Fri, 07 Aug 2009 10:25:49 -0700

I may have mentioned this before, but I really need to be selling things. To people other than the people who read this blog. So I will trade cookies for help. Yes. Big fluffy Mennonite style old fashioned buttermilk cookies with buttercream f...

Artfully, uh, artful.

nobody@vox.com(shush now) — Sat, 25 Jul 2009 13:11:08 -0700

So ninety five percent of everything I've sold on Etsy has been to blog readers. And the things that haven't been to you lovely folks? Those have never been jewelry. So I decided that if I want to grow my buying base, I need to make less jewe...

Tote! Hurray!

I was going to make a baby blanket, and then I got lazy. End product? I think I like this better. Etsy, of course.

Last call for bids!

If you want to own a blanket made out of my old shirts (which is either cool, or creepy, or both maybe) then GO BID NOW. You've got 34 hours from uh, now. (Now as in when I posted this, not when you read it.)

Jewelry.

nobody@vox.com(shush now) — Mon, 06 Apr 2009 14:52:28 -0700

Because my mom insists that Jewelry is what I'm best at and wouldn't take no for an answer. I tried to explain to her that I don't have the supplies I need to make what I normally make, and she kept insisting that I have to have enough to make SO...

Buy a piece of history!

nobody@vox.com(shush now) — Fri, 03 Apr 2009 07:02:44 -0700

So I've decided to sell the t-shirt comforter that I've been working on for, well, half of forever. I pieced the top 7 years ago when I was newly married, and I pieced the back just last month. Finishing it seems like an eternity, even though I ...

Newly Listed on Etsy!

nobody@vox.com(shush now) — Wed, 01 Apr 2009 11:33:19 -0700

Baby takes a trip "Around the World!" I really love this quilt- it's far from perfect, so I'm not charging much for it, but I hope it finds a home. And then, there's always Baby Jane. Both available from MonkeyLand Originals

I've been a little quiet here, because I've been dividing my time between "real" work and trying to actually post on my Wordpress blog. So, in case you are interested, here's what's been happening on WordPress: David’s real brilliance was not in...

Progress on the Baby Jane

nobody@vox.com(shush now) — Mon, 23 Mar 2009 08:00:49 -0700

It's not nearly done, and this is four days later than I promised- but here's the Baby Jane quilt. I still have a LOT of beading and embroidery to do, but I think it's a rather charming little thing. :)
