I check every day on ebay, etsy, artfire, twitter and the numerouse fabric sites I have to see if there is something I have to have or if a fabric I am almost out of is available. It is crazy! I just bought fabric today that I really didn't need but wanted. I love Patty Young. She has some great fabrics and she just came out with some new ones. I had to buy some from her new fabric today. Here is one of her fabrics I did a board from:Kayskraftshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12006288585626769950noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-690755061637752704.post-14184443766392795852010-06-23T10:11:00.000-07:002010-06-23T10:11:21.854-07:00Amy Butler is my Fav!<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEghaMI5NLnWWimbC1gqZc_7Kg_z1RaM0YxZ6nzaY9n86W1vfzd0O_R47vFeLqLuejG51jwBIOmaVkckBBfoShNhnXnja_v82-5ns2d-_0xiZS-xQSt05l0m1mqbu7hugPiXBr2RzDMOPpzf/s1600/IMG_0594.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; cssfloat: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="160" ru="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEghaMI5NLnWWimbC1gqZc_7Kg_z1RaM0YxZ6nzaY9n86W1vfzd0O_R47vFeLqLuejG51jwBIOmaVkckBBfoShNhnXnja_v82-5ns2d-_0xiZS-xQSt05l0m1mqbu7hugPiXBr2RzDMOPpzf/s200/IMG_0594.JPG" width="200" /></a>I fell in love with her Lotus group and this is one of the fabrics</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">What do you think?

I think they make great looking boards but I am not sure if they are going to sell. My son picked up 5 to take to his church tonight because he thinks he can sell them there. But I guess I will have to wait and see. I just didn't know there was so much fabric out there until now. I am really hoping I can find a market for it because I have not found any other western boards for sale and this may get me out of the designer fabric I have been doing boards in for a while.

I have been busy creating new boards for my shops, trying to promote but just not adding any info to my blog. I will try to do better. Here are a couple of boards that I have been working on. I have tried to go with the western them right now to add a new collection to my shop. They are fun to make and I have added a few things to make them interesting.Kayskraftshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12006288585626769950noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-690755061637752704.post-40922519302068496012010-03-30T16:53:00.000-07:002010-03-30T16:53:14.535-07:00Well !It was a beautiful day today but I just enjoyed hanging at the house. I am shipping some boards to a consignment in Rhode Island and sold a board that I will ship in the morning. It has been slow so I am grateful for any traffic I have. I was so busy at the first of the month selling boards left and right then it just stopped. I am not sure why but I guess with spring break and easter there were other things to do besides shop on the computer. Check out my etsy shop and see the new boards I have listed. My goal is to have 200 boards in my shop by Christmas!

It is like an addiction. I will see a fabric I like that I think will make such a pretty board and even try to not buy it but sadly I can't leave it alone. I buy on line a lot and a new fabric line came out that I loved but thank goodness it was flannel and fleece only so I was able to pass it up. There are so many interesting fabrics out there, so many creative designers that I have to check them out. They give me great ideas for boards.Kayskraftshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12006288585626769950noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-690755061637752704.post-91101624295677235172010-03-06T05:24:00.000-08:002010-03-06T05:24:30.167-08:00Finally Sat is here!<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_cjQIZyI8sPE/S5JWgu6ApbI/AAAAAAAAARI/IRNxtAbnhrY/s1600-h/IMG_0125-1.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; cssfloat: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" kt="true" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_cjQIZyI8sPE/S5JWgu6ApbI/AAAAAAAAARI/IRNxtAbnhrY/s200/IMG_0125-1.JPG" width="181" /></a></div>I wish I could just do my boards but I have to pay the bills and can't do that with my boards. I have to work so off I go today and then I will be off tomorrow. I would probably get lazy if I didn't have my full time job so it has to be a good thing. I have made several boards out of Melissa Averinos fabric and this is one of them. I love her fabrics. This is one of my favorite fabrics that I made.

It is not as much fun and requires a lot of my time. Even as my sales have continued to increase in my shop, I still come home every night to build boards for my customers. My fabric stash continues to grow as I am always looking at fabric to use for my boards. I plan on putting more people on my blog in the future to show you how creative people are in their crafts. It amazes me how many different things people can find to make.

I was really hoping for spring. I made a new board for a girl at work and I think it is so cute. It has cats and kittens on it in a garden. Lots of colors. It is just so cute! I bought more material to make more boards, I am like an addict when it comes to fabric. I am always looking for something that will make a great board. It is a good thing that I am selling some boards so I can buy more material. By the way, I finally sold my 100th board. That is quite a feat for me. <br />

Check this new board! A customer requested a Southwest Board with these colors. I am thinking it is Southwest but I could be wrong. I just love the color of ribbon I used.Kayskraftshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12006288585626769950noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-690755061637752704.post-53365410199906907702010-02-17T18:48:00.000-08:002010-02-17T18:48:46.245-08:00Thank you Artfire!!<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiPRIKJmRjhfYJB8FdzQdoqT8l8lxMjjWpoNmT1OihrHIfv81TzCkXlRDEMrmdTDCD_LilKb0-XNA4SW1QayZGvvL6V6cPTCCOyxEu8jC058sLl4baSfB3l_JKDndTM-Vz4ZGVKZf6PyRJt/s1600-h/DSC04486.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; cssfloat: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" ct="true" height="150" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiPRIKJmRjhfYJB8FdzQdoqT8l8lxMjjWpoNmT1OihrHIfv81TzCkXlRDEMrmdTDCD_LilKb0-XNA4SW1QayZGvvL6V6cPTCCOyxEu8jC058sLl4baSfB3l_JKDndTM-Vz4ZGVKZf6PyRJt/s200/DSC04486.JPG" width="200" /></a></div>I just checked out the new items added to my artfire shop and Love it! Artfire seems to be on the ball about adding new things to shops and adding the urls to the items is great. I can now see where my items were seen at. I worked on my shop for a couple of days to besure I had all my boards there that were in my Etsy Shop. It is great. Have you checked leealice.etsy.com yet? She needs some support. She has great ideas for jewelry. <br />

The idea of setting up shops within your shop!!! I am a member of many shops but etsy seems to be leading the way!! I just wish i could get my sales up, I have tried everything and am running out of ideas. I sell more on etsy than any other site but i just can't seem to get it going, I wish I knew what I could do.
