AmigurumiParadise is another Etsy shop I am constantly paying attention to! Her's pattern is very unique. Barbara designs her own patterns, that's why you can't find her pattern in any book. I purchased several of her patterns and I can tell you it's well written! Patterns are very clear and easy to follow! She got enough pictures for you to see, so that you won't get lost. Her patterns are also very simple! One more thing is she offers free patterns! If you are a beginner, check out her blog and you will find some very handsome patterns waiting for you to try! This particular pattern is named Garden Sprite! Isn't it cute? You can check out my old blog "A bunch of Amis" to see what I have crochet with AmigurumiParadise's pattern.

I knew Meeka (titaniumhip.etsy.com) for a long long time! At first, she really got me noticed is of her last name, it's similar to my hubby's first name! It's not very usual name, that's why I noticed her! She came to me to purchase some eyes in my store. I got into a habit automatically go to my customer's etsy shop to see their works. I am kinda nosey I admit! :P One day as usual I checked out her shop and found out all these little critters she have been making! They are so cute, so unique! She is not only making critters by sewing them, she also paints! She gave them personalities and they are a bunch of cuties to have in the house to make you smile! In Etsy I always look at other Etsian's work and wonder how talent they are. She is one of them that amazed me! Her works are one-of-a-kind! If you are interested, please check out her etsy shop! More info you can visit her blog!

Allow me to introduce you a new shop I have in ArtFire.com! Artfire.com is a brand new site which is in beta mode right now. It features handmade products, but supplies and vintage products. In Artfire.com I am having the same name "6060" as my shop, just like Etsy. I am still selling craft supplies like plastic eyes, safety eyes, craft eyes, amigurumi eyes, purse frames, teddy bear joints, and related items. It's like a mirror site to Etsy. What different to me between Artfire and Etsy is I have more categories when I list, 1 page listing is great, I don't have to keep pressing "next", and I have statistics in my shop so that I can provide a better marketing strategy when I need to. Although Artfire.com is still brand new and in beta mode, I hope it fiys like Etsy because it's truly is a great site for both buyers and sellers. So far I am loving it!!! ♥ Clara
