"Buy Handmade" + "Buy Local First!" event @ The Bobbin
There will be a good n' crafty event this Sunday at The Bobbin -- Burlington VT's only Sew Bar + Craft Lounge that specializes in eco-friendly and sustainable crafting! More details are below.
Excerpt from an e-mail communication with The Bobbin co-founder, Gyllian Svensson:
"There's no better time to support local crafters than during the holidays, especially in this challenging economy. Keep your dollars local and support your neighbors by taking a pledge to buy local, handmade goods and services this year. Please join us on Sunday Dec. 7th from 2pm to 6pm and take the pledge. Enjoy localvore hors d'oeuvres and make your own ornaments in the Craft Lounge! Hope to see you there!"

Also, there is a great article on The Bobbin in St. Mike's student multimedia journal "The Echo" http://journalism.smcvt.edu/echo/11.19.08/Stories/Features/Bissett_bobbin.html
And of course, The Bobbin is a great place to take a cool crafting class or to purchase vintage fabrics and other unusual and/or vintage sewing and crafting supplies.
