What I'm Working On

Currently I'm whipping up some fun hats for a local charity. I did this last year and really enjoyed it and got many compliments on my hats. So now I am making up a few more to donate out of my yarn stash.

If you are in the Grand Junction, Colorado area and enjoy making hats, it would be wonderful of you to make a few to donate. If you don't make hats, at least stop by these locations to buy a few! They make great gifts and all proceeds go to an amazing charity!

It's hard to read the image, but anytime after December 3, the hats can be purchased at the following locations:
Heirlooms For Hospice at 635 Main Street
Benges Shoes at 514 Main Street
and
The Hot Tomato Cafe at 124 N. Mulberry Street in Fruita

For more info on donating, contact Suzi at

Custom Items

Just a reminder that the holidays are quickly approaching! On November 18th I will be disabling my Custom Made Items from my etsy shop to allow me more time to spend with my family. But don't worry, they will be back up sometime late in December! So hurry and make your purchases if you want a unique gift!
