Craft:


I have been having a routine these days at Schmancy for the past few weeks. I arrive in a slight state of panic of what is ahead for me. I then go to the computer and begin. Checking the numerous emails is first. Then flickr, then Myspace and then Craft:. Today as I was looking around at all the fun crafts and crafty information, my UPS guy walked in with an envelope. As I am not really expecting anything I was a bit curious. Then I opened and gasped. It is an early copy of the highly anticipated Craft: magazine. I was really honored that they asked me to review an early copy and I have been waiting for it to arrive but in all the pre Plush You! madness, I sort of forgot. I know what I will be doing with any down time I might get between now and next Friday. I started reading "Zombines & Robots & Bears Oh My!" by Mary Belton already. I am so excited to see so many participants throughout the magazine that have or will be apart of Schmancy. There are definately numerous projects in there that I can't wait to try. My first one will definately be Cro-bot by Beth Doherty. I love her work so much. I was really happy to also see Jess Hutch's Knitted Robots on the cover. I could basically go on and on about how much I am excited about this magazine and look forward to many many more. Go get your subscription now. It's every crafters wet dream. Sorry but it's true. Yahoooooooo
