Photo stolen from https://www.facebook.com/TheQuirkyQuiltress. Thank you to everyone who came out to shop at the Craft League Collab Sale this weekend! You all remind me of what's good in the world. And thanks to the buyer of my collab piece done with Lydia Puddicombe! Our Guinea pig UFO pilot, "Intergalactic Vegetable Bandit", flew off to its new home today.

You still have one day to shop the eclectic Craft League art market at the Orpheum Theater in Champaign. 10-4 Sunday. Come see the extremely creative collaborative art pieces done by two or more artists in the gallery in the lobby. Pieces that have sold will be picked up from 2-4, so come early to see them and find out which collaborations won awards voted on by the artists as well as the public. It's also just a cool old theater with art deco touches.

The very start of set up today for the Boneyard Arts Fest Collab Show & Art Market this weekend at the 1914 Orpheum Theater. I’m way over on the south end of the stage. All ready for a great sales weekend with a gallery in the lobby of all artists’ collaborative pieces! Event details in comments. Saturday 10-6 (fingers crossed for late-day shoppers!) and Sunday 10-4. Roughly 30 artists displaying and selling their work.

Is this a painting of a fierce, strong trans woman by the crazy-talented Syd Ray-Lee Ritsema? No, it’s actually a life-sized sculpted bust of a fierce, strong trans woman. Are you as angry about trans persecution as we are? Meet “Defiance” - our collab piece for the Boneyard Arts Fest Craft League collab show. Defiance wears two spiked solid sterling silver pieces - a spiked ear cuff and a spiked neck piece that can be removed and worn. Come see her this weekend! This warrior is available for sale. Syd will also be selling a limited number of prints of the original 2D painting that inspired the collab project.

I have a customer out there who has asked me several times about ear cuffs. I thought they were purely '90's fashion, but...I got a request so I made 11 sterling silver ear cuffs stamped with a little retro star. For sale this weekend at the Boneyard Arts Fest Collab Sale. $25 each including tax.I wore one in college, I'm wearing one of these right now!

Though I have not posted photos of my collaboration with Syd Ray-Lee Ritsema yet, it has an LGBTQ theme and in honor of that I made a few wider lightweight aluminum LGBTQ cuffs stamped with “we have always been here” and dinosaur tracks. Some have lettering on the inside, tracks on the outside and some are the reverse with the lettering on the outside. $35 each including tax. There is some size adjustment possible in person. For sale this weekend. Event details in comments.

In honor of my collab piece with Lydia Puddicombe for this weekend’s sale, I made some stamped, very lightweight, aluminum cuffs. Stamped with “get me outta here” in black letters with a UFO (narrower version) and trees (wider version) and retro stars. I think it’s a sentiment most of us have been feeling lately in the U.S. wider ones are $35 and narrower are $30 including tax. They are somewhat adjustable in-person for size. They have been tumbled to a lighter gray finish. Good for stacking with other things. One video at a time so here is the wider version. Weekend sale details in comments.
