Etsy Stock Take - Week Forty-two

Ceramic Buttons at DoubleHalo

Etsy Stock Take - Week Forty-one - Sunday Linky Party

Hi guys,

Well, the wheels are turning and life goes on... This week I've cast off a knitting project and I'm swatching for another, this time a waistcoat for me! Yay! I finished cutting silk for a sewing project and I'll be sewing that up slowly (I learnt the hard way you need to tack (baste) silk before running it through the machine! Ooops...)

I've not been very interested in taking care of my Etsy shop which is a bit sad. I hope you are more motivated than me...

So, what have you been up to this week?

Shoppers of handmade stuff:
Scroll down for some more beautiful products made by some of my readers. Please visit their shops on Etsy and consider buying something! You'll be glad you did :)

Etsy Sellers:
Please, no holiday items, let's keep this a Halloween and Christmas free zone!
Link up your items to get more exposure for your shop. You might be featured in the Best of the Week or Best of the Month features (and then you'll be tweeted and pinned!). Vintage is welcome too!

You have 2 options:

1. Bloggers:

Write a new post on your blog (telling us about your new items), mention the Etsy Stock Take and link back here so your readers get a chance to find the link up list (or add the button above).

Then link up using the Linky widget (where it says 'click here to enter') at the bottom of this post so we can find your blog.

2. Link up directly to your Etsy shop:  
Post a link that goes directly to your new items in Etsy using the Linky widget (where it says 'click here to enter') at the bottom of this post. You can put up as many as you want and we will see your images nice and big.

If you have problems with linking up, please let me know and I will give you a hand (my email).

Everyone:
It'd be lovely if you took a moment to go and check out some stuff that others post below - go shopping!

Ciao!

Katz :)

Marmee's Waistcoat - Tah dah!

Marmee's Wasitcoat, front detail.

I think the back view is my favourite.




 Finalmente, I get around to posting this! I have photo processing issues, it seems to take me ages to get round to dealing with them... Anyway, that's another post...

Marmee's waistcoat in all its glory, modelled by the recipient herself on her recent visit to us in Hamburg. We were hanging out on the beach and I was sewing on the buttons. We couldn't wait to get pretty pictures :)

All the gory details on Ravelry!

This post will be linked up with lots of lovely creative parties, to see where exactly check out the 'What I'm...' tab.


PS. Are you into buying handmade? Yes? Then you should check out the amazing stuff in the Etsy Stock Take. If you sell your craft on Etsy, please come and join in :)

Etsy Stock Take - Week Forty-one

My personal favourite from September: Personalised Anniversary Pillows from Intriguedknits

Etsy Stock Take - Week Forty-one - Sunday Linky Party

Hi guys,

So, I missed an Etsy Stock Take last week... Oops... Life just got in the way (along with a healthy dose of laziness!).

As Lennon said "Life is what happens to you while you are busy making other plans." Our lives are full of plans, half-plans, maybes and what ifs at the moment. It's an exciting, if somewhat disruptive time...

So after my mini blogging break, I found that I quite missed the routine of posting stuff here. So let's see if I can keep it up for a bit longer (I just made the one year mark!!!).

So, what have you been up to this week?
