I lurk here on dA these days, but haven't updated with new work in awhile, oops! You should definitely follow me on social media to see more of my work, where I post more regularly:

Facebook
Twitter
Tumblr
Instagram

And make sure you check out my Etsy shop, I have a ton of awesome cross stitch patterns there.

Finally, I'm in the process of setting up a shop on my website, which I'm hoping to have open early in August - watch my social media channels for updates on that.

Last week, my hot water tank burst, and flooded a chunk of my basement. It took a week, but the new tank has been installed, and now we're waiting for the restoration work to start. We have home insurance, but we had to pay a $1000 deductible yesterday so we can book the company to start work. Plus, we're waiting to find out if we owe anything for the tank installation, as only 4 hours of work was covered by the warranty. With it being so close to Christmas, and me not working anymore, this was a hefty expense we weren't really prepared for. AND, we need to get the brakes done on our vehicle soon, before the really awful winter weather hits.

So basically, I would be super grateful for any sales I make. You can check my Etsy shop (I have a bunch of new patterns and items I'll be adding soon!) and my RedBubble for my art and handmade items.

I've also opened a separate shop for selling geeky merch and other things I don't need or have space for, you can check that out here.

Thank you SO much for your help!

Hey guys! I'm working to get my shop relaunched, so to raise some money to pay for hosting, supplies, and some educational material, I'm doing a pre-sale of my dragon scale bags. AND, until Sunday January 1, when you order a medium or large bag, you'll get a small one FREE!

More details about the bags here, see what I have in stock here, and more about the sale here.

And when I reach my fundraising goal, I'll be doing a giveaway, too! If you don't want to or can't order, I would love it if you'd reblog my posts on Tumblr or toss links on your social media channels to share with your nerdy friends.

Thank you so much!

Happy Holidays!

1 min read
I hope you all had a lovely holiday, whatever you celebrate, that that the new year brings you many good things, and lots of creative inspiration for whatever you do. I was gifted a sewing machine and supplies for two cross stitch projects, so needless to say I have a lot planned for the few months I'm here at home before returning to work.

On that note, I'm going to be reorganizing and tidying up my dA gallery, and updating with a few more things I've done recently. I'm also hoping to take on a few commissions, my Core membership expired and I can only make so many things for myself before I need a change LOL If you're interested in a cross stitch, knit item, or a piece of art, please send me a message!

Okay folks, here it is: I got into a minor accident while driving my friend’s car, and need to raise money to pay for repairs, because I’m broke af and my day job is barely enough to cover my normal expenses.

So, I’m offering my creative services to help bring in whatever I can to help, as follows:

- I can knit/crochet/cross stitch pretty much anything you like (see craft blog/deviantArt/shop for samples)

- I can create custom cross stitch patterns from your photos, of your favourite characters, or to fit a theme or idea you have.

- Art: Index card sized pieces are $12 shipped, as either sketch, lineart, B&W, or colour in crayon, pencil crayon, marker, or acrylic/watercolor paint. Larger pieces will cost more, based on size and complexity. I’ll be doing up a few premades, but you can get any subject you like.

- Basically anything else you can think of, really. I’m super open to ideas and also rather desperate, so if you have something you want/need, hit me up.

If you want to pitch in a few dollars but don’t necessarily need anything right now, I’ll be keeping a log of donations and will absolutely do something for you in the future. Anyone who buys or donates will also get huge shoutouts on my Tumblrs, Twitter, and my YouTube channel.

I can take payment/donations via PayPal or etransfer at keightleyc@gmail.com

There's a post on Tumblr as well, if you could reblog it and help spread the word I would be super grateful -> bootsandfire.tumblr.com/post/1…
