A Family Affair

Hey guys! In the San Fransisco area? Check out this sweet event hosted by the SF Craft Mafia (who are some pretty awesome Etsy Sellers too):

Craft Work, Craft Play:
An Afternoon with the SF Craft Mafia

San Francisco, CA August 12, 2007 – The San Francisco Craft Mafia (SFCM) strikes again with a community event for Bay Area designers, crafty businesses, and the general public alike. A Family Affair: Tips and Treats with the SF Craft Mafia offers local businesses and designers the perfect chance to network as well as fabulous opportunities to gain new, crafty skills.

Stitch Lounge—a member of SFCM—will sponsor and host, A Family Affair on August 12, 2-6pm. The event will feature a number of work stations to pick up jewelry-making tips, work on selected patterns from Stitch Lounge's published guide to clothing customization, Sew Subversive, embellish and bedazzle garments with an assortment of buttons, beads, and sequins, and decorate delicious cupcakes. Business owners and designers can mingle over treats and exchange their own business tips and experiences.
The San Francisco Craft Mafia (SFCM) is a collective of San Francisco-based small business owners and artists committed to the promotion and growth of the independent handmade business community of the Bay Area and beyond. SFCM provides focused support for growing business ventures, a viable space and forum to network and share ideas and experiences, as well as exceptional community and shopping events. SFCM models itself after the first Craft Mafia in Austin, Texas, where a small group of crafters joined together in 2003 to support one other in their crafty business endeavors. SFCM is one of 47 active Craft Mafia chapters across the country and in Great Britain.

SFCM's inaugural event was the well-attended Mafia Made trunk show at Craft Gym last November, which featured over 20 up-and-coming clothing, jewelry, accessories, craft-related businesses, designers, and artists. SFCM member and owner of Saints and Sinners, Barbe Saint John, said, "A Family Affair promises to maintain the creative energy of Mafia Made and continue to support the diverse, inspired, and outgoing talent of the San Francisco Bay Area."

I guess that except this way, I must lose my some flyff penya. He said that I should level a little bit more and told me that I can go to buy flyff penya to improve my character. That thought slipped flyff money away pretty fast while I was training and chatting with my guild mates. I did not think of what I thought was fun before getting flyff gold that thought in my head. If you think a game is looking lame, try it before you say it out loud, you might like it to make some cheap penya.
