Last outside event until September! So hot, but it was another good turnout in Maumelle. Looking forward to seeing that community again in the fall!

Lions

Lions are one of my favorites of the things I have made.

The purple tie dye was made recently for a custom order out of cotton duck cloth that I had tie dyed by Long Dog Art. You can find them on facebook. It was a really fun make! I am waiting for some inspiration to strike for the rest of the tie dye fabric, because there are some really cute designs!!

Fabrics

These fabrics are what I have in stock. I try to keep this current but there are no guarantees that I have enough or that more can be obtained, and this is not a complete list of fabrics as I have an extensive selection of scraps to work with.

Just finished a memory quilt for a baby gift and am ready to get back into bags and bandanas!

About to do some prototypes for new crochet products (details to come soon), and in my spare time I will work on building that scrubby, washy, and market bag stock back up.

Next weekend will be a trip to the fabric store which is always fun! Will share my finds then.

2025 highlights

4thgenartisan@gmail.com (Samantha) — Sat, 27 Dec 2025 12:54:57 -0600

Every year since I started going to markets, I think I have it figured out and yet I learn so much. This year has proven to be the most challenging yet.

March 22nd was a promising start to the market season at Heber Springs Makers Market on the Square. Had some super cute bunnies with me and my friend Darlene started joining me selling her beautiful handmade cards!

April 19th was another Makers Market on the Square but it didn’t go as planned. The rain that wasn’t supposed to come poured out of nowhere to ruin the day. It was a mad dash to get all of our goods that didn’t need to get wet out of the rain and loaded, and then get home and unloaded.

About me

4thgenartisan@gmail.com (Samantha) — Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000

My name is Samantha. I have a lot of hobbies but my main hobby is collecting hobbies! Hahaha Mom jokes aside, my current hobby collection includes:

Crochet
Sewing
- Quilting
- Denim Upcycling
- Purses and Other Bags
Hand Embroidery
Reading
Podcast listening, mostly fictional or narrative storytelling

I have always known how to crochet, don’t remember learning. My mother and her mother crocheted, embroidered, and sewed. I even remember seeing my maternal great grandmother crocheting tiny doilies with thread and she was blind at that point!
