Last week I went to Pittsburgh for the first ever Craft Congress, which was amazing. I enjoyed it purely for the fact that I got to see so many amazing people in one room.

For me a big part of the weekend's event was passing out tote bags with the new official name of the Documentary I've been working on for the past year. Indie Craft Documentary is now titled

Handmade Nation: The Rise of DIY Art, Craft & Design

Their will be a sneak peek up on youtube or our site, within the week for everyone to view!

This week involves painting album art for a Call Me Lightning/Get Rad split 7", editing, playing a show with Wooden Robot at Cactus Club tomorrow night with David Brown and tackling my taxes (laaammmme) and finising up updating the Art vs. Craft site so we can launch the application for the July show.

Some links to check out:::
