One of the best things about leaving the corporate world to become a working artist is meeting and hanging out with like minded folks. A bunch of Etsy shops in metro Boston got together to form a kind of guild - we have a blog, do shows, get together for brainstorming, demos and general stitch and bitch sessions. We're all hip and funky and young (at least at heart!). Now all we need is a couple of crafty guys to join up!
It's times like this that I find myself envying you and your city digs, Betsy. You have so much within a short bus ride... including "real" people to share and inspire with.

And besides, it wont be long before I'm down at Chez Lupita again. Yippy! :)
