This little bunny has been hanging out in the back yard for the last few days. This morning, I got all National Geographic on him, and got close enough to take this little picture. Isn't he adorable? I named him Miguel.

Extra, extra, read all about it!

Marcy Rice from the Raleigh News & Observer was kind enough to mention some of the NC artists who were featured on HGTV's Crafters Coast to Coast in her Notions blog on Friday, May 20th:

Thank you tons and bunches!

Thank you tons and bunches to those of you who watched me yesterday on HGTV's Crafters Coast to Coast! I'm so thrilled that you all were so pleased with my projects!!

I'm so stoked about how the segments turned out. Thursday night as I was going to sleep, I kept tossing and turning, thinking about all the silly stuff I said and did, and wondering how it was going to look. They did a great job of editing it together, and I'm so impressed with how it turned out. Yay!

The only sad part... my kitty Henry didn't get any airtime!

If you missed it, never fear. I have pictures of my two projects here.

I'm on TV Today!

Crafters Coast to Coast airs on HGTV at noon and 5pm. Don't forget to watch it!

See me on HGTV!

Although the HGTV website hasn't been updated yet, I'm almost certain that my episode of Crafters Coast to Coast is going to air tomorrow. Yay!

They filmed it back in January, so I've been waiting and waiting and waiting to find out when it would be on. Finally, the time has come!

In case you're curious, I'm making a bird mobile in my main segment, and I do a short segment at the end where I make a flower brooch.

I'm so nervous to see how it came out. They filmed me doing all sorts of crazy, crazy stuff... I had to pretend to fly out of the sunroof of a car (while it was sleeting!), and they made me serenade myself with my collection of toy instruments (so silly!), I had to juggle yarn really badly (and they threw it at me!)....

So, needless to say it should be very entertaining and super silly!

Oh, and if all goes well, my Henry cat will be making his TV debut, too! Yay!

P.S. And my shop is gonna reopen tomorrow - just in time for my TV debut! Hooray!

And the winner is...
