From the Studio: Plans for the Next Two Weeks

The flowers from AnnieDesign are all here!  Cute little buggers, aren’t they?  Finishing this project is at the top of the list for this week.

Since there is no Farmers Market this week (the fair is coming, silly) I am taking this opportunity to catch up on a few ideas and further develop some products in the works already.  Here’s is what you can expect over the next couple of weeks:

• Some information on babywearing as well as a tutorial for how to use an onbuhimo.
• Further development of another aspect of The Peaceful Peacock:  recipes.
• I am diligently working to de-mystify the process of gluten-free cooking for our 10 month old (we have a history of allergies, asthma, and eczema in the family so we are taking all the possible precautions).  This week I’m researching flour substitutes.
• A tutorial on how to make a simple apron from a repurposed skirt.
• Hooking up with SuperJennyLove to get some ideas in motion for The B Team…your Bozeman Etsy Street Team.
• And of course further development on some products:  a pattern for the Slim and Trim Cloth Diapers, the hand-dyed baby wraps, cute and funky aprons, and sweet little clothespin bags.  I’m not promising that all of these things will make it to the next market, but I will certainly try.

In addition, I’d like to say thank you to all of the wonderful folks who stopped by to chat this weekend in the booth–it’s great to connect with so many of you in the community!  Feel free to drop me a line with any questions about the baby carriers, the rick rack tutorial, or whatever else might be on your mind.  For now my family and I are heading out to the hills for a couple of days for some much needed rest and relaxation.
