    That sounds so cute!

    I have never sold anything over the net, just my pottery on markets, but I am so proud that people are acutally using, and enjoying the things I made :)

    It would be sooo cool to meet you, funkyphresh, but I don't think you live around here. I live in miami, florida. Anyways, thats sounds so cool. Wish that could happen to me, but I live too far from ppl in here.

    That's really cool. I don't sell things, but it's always nice to see someone appreciate what you do. :)

    i have hemp necklaces for sale in 3 locations in my town, so i often see people wearing necklaces i've made. I don't say anything to them though, i just laugh to myself, cause i'm so happy people like them.

    I met a sistah I sold a few dresses to off of ebay. She was from the Seattle area and we met at Alpine Valley at the Dead Family Reunion. She recognized me because I used some of the some corduroy in one of her dresses that she had previously bought that I used in a top that she was buying off me from the lot at Alpine. I started telling her I sold my goods online and she shreiked Ericka! and gave me a huge hug. She told her boys that she was hoping to run into me. That was pretty cool. We got along really well and now we keep in touch :)

    My friends keep thier eyes peeled for my goods at shows. I have seen a few of my threads on people at Bonnaroo but I didn't want to bug them ;)

    that's awesome. i've only sold hemp stuff (lame, i know), but i've never seen it on a stranger.

    i'm telling my bf to order me some funky phresh mama clothes for xmas or something...maybe i'll run into you somewhere! i LOVE LOVE LOVE your stuff, i'm always drooling over it on ebay. i'm just learning how to sew now, so hopefully i can make my own soon.

    peace.
