Life was just too crazy for me these last 2 weeks and I'm afraid I missed putting a shout out to everyone who came by the table at Awesome Con Indy. D: (You were all wonderful and I had a great time talking with you! :D)

So I'm plowing on instead and posting my to do list for Magfest, as well as doing some slight arranging on my main page here. I've got a poll up now so you can make your voice known on what dolls you want me to work on next down below as well as my twitter feed running on the page as I like posting what I'm working on during the week. ^_^ You should also see postings of some custom orders and new catalog pieces I've been working on since this summer over the next few days as well.

I've got a plush lite and doll heavy list for MagFest so *cracks knuckles* time to get to it.

Yup, time for the next con to-do list! GenCon was an interesting mix of fun and crazy. I haven't had a con run me over like that in awhile, lol. I didn't get anywhere near what I wanted done of course, but thankfully this next one won't take near as much time to get ready for. So without further ado, I give you....

I know I normally post a thank you to everyone who can by for my last con (which was lovely and thank you so much to everyone who came by the chat and enjoy my work. You are all lovely people!!! :D) but as the title states, Gen Con is right around the corner and I am feeling the pressure. I've got a few replacement dolls to make and then *crosses fingers* you should all see some new dolls coming out before then. There are 2 new dolls that were commissions that, if not already up, will be going up over the next few days. :D I love them both so much!! Though I have some favoritism towards one...it will be obvious, lol.

Anyway, the good old to do list!

So I'm about a month late getting this all rolling and put together here, but I'd like to officially announce my name change and site launch! Yay!! :dance: As I mention in my last journal update, all old links should still forward if you are logged onto DA, but you'll now find all my work under the name: Craftigurumi. :D My site has more personal information about me, as well as ways to contact me for questions and commissions that don't require you having a DA account now! You'll find it here: craftigurumi.com

I'll be updating that site with info more often than I will be here from now on, as well as a twitter feed that I can now use to show off my super untidy desk and life lessons learned while working in yarn. ;) My twitter handle is also in the same vein with Craftigurumi.

My shop already has a new banner up and has changed over as well, so you can now commission me directly from etsy for about 90% of the things I've got in my gallery here. I'm working on adding links directly to each listing for my shop but bear with me as I've got over 100 items here now, and that's a lot of text. This link will take you straight to the main shop page though: Craftigurumi on Etsy.

I've been busy toiling away getting all of this up and running the last two months, but I've also been hard at work for my next con. Which, as long as customs let me through, will be Con Bravo in just two weeks!!! :fear: Since this list is going up so close to the deadline, a lot has already been crossed off, but I still have plenty left to do. Wish me luck and I hope to see some of my future fellow Canadians soon! :D

Wow, I know I feel like I say this a lot, but I HUGE THANK YOU to everyone who came by my table this past weekend! Saturday was just crazy and it was so great to meet everyone! Also a big thank you to any of you who came out for the panel on Sunday. Several of you gave us good feedback on the event, and we hope to put on another one at next year's Awesome Con. :D

I've got a line of commission I'll be starting work on this weekend, but look out for new dolls going up all this week that debuted at Awesome Con. I've got a few fun stories to share about a few of them as well. ;)

So my first announcement, as any of you who met me at Awesome Con may know, I've joined forces with my good friend Toni to launch a site called Craft Hackers. It will focus on highlighting exceptional crafts/art works found around the world as well as helping those in the crafting/art business help get their small business up and running. :) We just launched it this Monday, so not much is on the site now, but we're adding more everyday and would love those who have a passion for these mediums to come join us. ^_^

The other thing I'd like to announce is that in the beginning of May, I will be going full time with my crafting business here for the summer, at the very least, and hopefully for good! :dances: So what does this mean? Well, more consistent uploads of my new creations for all of my followers, most if not all of my gallery will finally be available for purchase or order online, and the relaunching of my business under it's new name as well as it's own dedicated website! :D It's a very exciting feeling and I can't wait for these next few weeks to hurry up already so I can get on with it, lol. That does mean my devianart id name will be changing when this happens to keep everything together. So those of you who are not on DA and have this page bookmarked, it should redirect you to the new name when that happens. DA members will have nothing to worry about as it will all adjust for them automatically. :) Yay for not having to update bookmarks!

Wish me luck guys! :D
