<![CDATA[ <img align=right width=112 height=116 src="http://drawn.ca/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/sale.jpg">The weather is slowly cooling off, the holidays are approaching, and we've been de-stashing a great deal of our studio inventory and pulled all sorts of things that are in need of new, loving homes, and invite you to come select some for adoption, post haste!

Join us Saturday, October 15th, from 9am - 5pm!

<p>Items available will include semi-precious gemstones, pearls, and Czech glass beads, both loose and in strands; basemetal beads and findings; a large variety of novelty yarns and fibers; rubber stamps (some mounted, some not;) fabric; notions; patterns; buttons; sewing hardware; and more!

<p>There may also be some scrapbooking items, ephemera, fabrics, and other items as I find them - I'm on a de-cluttering mission, and still adding to the list! ]]></description>

<![CDATA[ We'd like to thank everyone who stopped by Grant Park in downtown Chicago last weekend during the Gold Coast Art Fair to see all of our new work. We had a wonderful time, and hope you did, too!

<p>Next up, we'll be joining more than 90 professional fine artists from around the country July 30-31st in Lindner Woods on the UW-La Crosse campus to display a wide variety of media at the 53rd Annual Art Fair on the Green.

<p>Proceeds go to scholarships for students from area high schools, as well as for students currently attending La Crosse universities and the technical school. Past support has allowed AAUW to grant over a quarter million dollars in scholarships since the beginning of the fair in 1958.
