Sneak Preview: more new work

I've been busy getting ready for Holiday Market at Cheverly Community Market this Saturday, and thought I'd share a few of the new items I'll have this weekend.

 There's a lot more, and I'm looking forward to sharing them with you on Saturday if you're in Cheverly, or on Etsy very soon!

pricklygirl art+craft at Cheverly Community Market on December 13

I'll be returning to Cheverly Community Market -- as a vendor for the first time -- at Holiday Market, 8am to noon on Saturday, December 13. I have been part of Cheverly Community Market since it began in 2008, and I'm very much looking forward to seeing the Market from the vendor's side this weekend.

I'll bring unique, handmade modern accessories, including one-of-a-kind decoupage under glass plates and bowls, handknit items for all ages, and small matted photographic prints of some of the gorgeous produce you’ve seen at Cheverly Community Market over the years. pricklygirl art+craft has been featured in galleries in Chicago, suburban Philadelphia, and Silver Spring, as well as art magazines and private collections throughout the United States. My knitwear is a treasured gift and is frequently used in photo shoots, so I'm glad to finally share it with people in person! 

I'll also have some of my award-winning produce photos, which have been shown in Washington, DC, and have been featured in magazines and on websites celebrating the intersection of food and art.

Hope to see you at Cheverly Community Market this Saturday!

More new stuff in the works...

More new plates coming to pricklygirl art + craft in the next few weeks... I've got two finished (posting on the shop next week), and a bunch in various states of completion. Anything you'd like to see in the shop? I'm always open to suggestions (in fact, a few years ago, I even made a baby in utero plate for a friend...)

Really, if you are looking for something specific, let me know!

There are also lots of new hats in the way for LuckyKid HandKnits, as well as some kid socks and, possibly, a few other items. We shall see...

In the meantime, it wouldn't be Halloween without the return of one of my favorites, the skeletal conjoined twins. This is a very special piece and it takes hours to cut the images, so I don't offer this one often.

Happy Halloween!

More Etsy news: I should have done it this way all along :)

It's really hard to explain how skeletons on plates and hand knit baby hats make a cohesive shop, so I've finally decided to split the two parts of my work world into two Etsy shops. I should have done it that way from the start. I didn't. Live and learn.

Anyhow, I hope you'll visit my newest place on Etsy -- LuckyKid HandKnits -- and see the hats I've been working on when I'm not working on those skeletons and owls and fish and flowers at pricklygirl art + craft. More coming to both Etsy shops soon!
