Post-Holiday craft night was sooo relaxed!! Yay for getting everything done!! Here's a few pics of cute things being made, and cute gifts that were given. See you in the New Year!

I'm so glad the weather held out so we could have an awesome holiday craft party!!! It was packed! Everyone brought amazing food and drink! Thanks to all who came!

Check out the adorable ornaments that were created in the Holiday felt ornaments class. CUTE!

Holy Craft Night - i finally broke away from knitting wrist warmers to snap a few shots of the mayhem. Be sure to check out next weeks edition of Craft Night because its Holiday Party Craft Night!!! Yay!!

So last Saturday we participated in our first show - Snow, the Holiday market of Fashion Denver. We just had things we made for the show - so all bags and fancy tiger soaps. It was sweet - thanks to all who came out! Here are some pics of our booth in case you missed it...

Oh man. Craft night has been sooo crowded the last two weeks and i haven't taken any photos. I know, lame. So here are some verbal photos of some of the awesome projects going on. Projects are finally being finished for the holidays including some amazing handspun two-ply yarn that was completed and an adorable snake scarf that was also finished. H. finished the cutest knitted rose brooch for her grandmother as well as the scarf she has been working on for her mom. M. , K and i started our wristwarmers on double pointed needles that made us feel like beginner knitters again, but are coming along nicely. J. made the cutest needlepoint wristcuff that is a prototype for a class we will offer in February. A and E were working on adorable crocheted mushrooms that we are all dying to see finished! So that i don't completely bore you, i've enclosed pictures of some of my current projects including an owl pillow and the bike i'm working on as i type.

Yay Craft Night!! Check out the hott embroidery that was going on! AND, there was more tatting - this time by a professional!

Check out the sweeet photos from the play that was performed at Fancy Tiger. It was part of the 365 days 365 plays production that is going on in Denver for the next YEAR. It was awesome!!

Holiday Craft Mayhem 2006! was awesome!! So many fabulous handmade gifts were made! Knitting, embroidery, collage, rug-hooking, felt creatures, and more was going on in the upstairs loft. The pictures will tell the real story of the mayhem going on and the crafts being created!

Holiday Craft Mayhem is upon us. This is when you have 1 month left to make a bijillion gifts and you're getting sooo frantic. In order to help, Fancy Tiger is having Holiday Craft Mayhem 2006!! This is a weekend long craft session (14 hours of crafting!)! Coffee, Tea, Redbull, and treats will be provided to keep you crafting and my idea book is ready for browsing if you still haven't decided what it is you're making. Also, most craft supplies will be on sale! I'll see you there!

Craft night was sweet with new faces and lots of gift being made. Knitting, crochet, spinning and embroidery were all represented last night. Also, H. brought in the "idees" issue of Marie Claire which was basically a really hot craft magazine all in French. Its the hottest thing i've seen all month. I've got to pick it up. It included the little palm-reading embroidery pattern, with the different lines labeled in French. I'm working on that one as i type. HOTT.

Little by Jenny's release party and trunk show was awesome! I've posted some photos of the delicious food before it was devoured and of Jenny and her new awesome line! mmm...

Tatting!! Craft night last night was huge - probably due to the need to make a bijillion holiday gifts! Three other crafters and i set out to learn tatting, an old method of lace making that i'm determined to re-popularize. Tatting is fabulous because you can make adorable little doilies, perfect for applique or jewelry and it only requires an inexpensive shuttle and thread. Thank god L. stopped by to help us as she had some experience. K and i decided it was ridiculus to use tatting thread which is so thin, so we switched over to embroidery floss, which was easier and more colorful. These pictures will help get you amped up for tatting!! Other awesome craft night crafts included felt bird ornaments, embroidered onesies and lots of knitting!!

This Friday we are hosting the release party for the winter/holiday clothing line by Little by Jenny! Its going to be awesome!! Little by Jenny has been featured in Readymade and Dwell magazines. She just moved to Denver so now we get the first look at the new line. Don't miss it!
