It's Better Handmade Artist Spotlight

My spotlight shop this week is ;
It is owned by Samantha Sawtelle, her shop is full of some very unique handmade items that she has added her own little flourish to, she turns a simple wallet into a work of art by adding hand painted script and  filigree to it;

She also makes the cutest evening bags :

These and more can be found in her shop;

Works in Progress

Had a very busy day today, in between doing the laundry, tending the garden and canning tomatoes, I managed to finish 4 Table Topper tops and got them pin basted and ready for machine quilting.

Now I've got to see when I can get another day off, I can't wait to start on these :)

Promotion

I  found this great site that offers free product promotion, and at the end of the month you get to vote on the items and possibly be eligible for a spot of free advertising for the next month if your item wins.
Even if it doesn't, it is still advertising for your shop for the month, then the following month you can put another items up and start the process all over again.
Now, in all truthfulness, it wasn't actually a find per say, as one of my team mates was announcing a new site she had started and wanted her team mates to participate and maybe spread the word to get more people to participate, so I am doing my part :)
Won't you stop over, put up a item from your shop, and maybe vote on some of the other ones posted and lets see who gets their product spotlighted this month :)

My newest find on Etsy

I found a really cute jewelry shop on Etsy today, and I know, there are a lot of jewelry shoppes on Etsy. How these guys manage to get noticed with all the competition on there is beyond me.

Now I don't usually make a habit of looking at jewelry, because as anybody who knows me will tell you, me and jewelry don't go together very well. Just ask my husband, who has probably at last count bought me 6 new diamonds for my band because I keep losing them in bakery mixers, cement, you name it and I have probably lost one in it.

This one showed up in my activity feed today, somebody was liking a item from her shop and it caught my eye, so I went to check it out.

I just love these, I couldn't wear it because of what I do for my day job, but it definately has the potential of making it to my daughters wrist for Christmas, and let me tell you, she definitely loves it when I do my shopping on Etsy :)

These are just a few of the gorgeous finds in this shop. Well worth the time to visit, so why don't you stop over and check her out, and tell her Ruth @ Gabby's Quilts sent you.
