Craft News of the Day

Posted by Mindy on January 5th, 2009 at 09:51am

Since I’m still a crafting novice, I often rely on a google news search to help me gather ideas for my blog posts. I often search “crafts” or “crafting” to see if anything useful comes up. I relied on this method this morning because my mind is still a blur of Holiday- and New Years-related projects. To my dismay, so are everyone elses. My search results were a hodgepodge of old Christmas craft articles, the token ‘crafting in a tough economy’ piece and then a bunch of articles about Obama ‘crafting’ a tax cut plan. So I went further and googled more specific crafting terms like sewing, knitting and quilting. While many of the reuslts were typical (sewing groups, kids learning how to sew in school, etc.), some of the stories were completely hilarious, outrageous and/or unexpected.  Here is one of them..

Introducing the first $9,000* sewing machine!

*Actual price not yet released. Anticipated to be equally, if not more, ridiculous.
