Hello Winter, it is nice to see you again.
If you plan to go buy handmade this season, the next two weekends are full of craft fairs, studio tours and trunk shows. Following is a list of events in Seattle. Check individual listings for specific times and dates; not each sale occurs for the full three days.

Ballard Art Walk: businesses throughout Ballard open their doors on the second Saturday of every month. Be sure to include the
Sev Shoon and BallardWorks studios, at 2862 NW Market St, in your travels. I will be moving into my new studio on the second floor this week. There are 19 artists on the second and third floor of the building, and the hallways are hung with new work from outside artists every month.
In an effort to reclaim some balance and peace for my family, I will only participate in one trunk show this year:
Happy shopping to all!
