[Maybe you've seen them around town: Posters made of construction paper in varied colors, each with small drawings of cats, dogs, rabbits and reindeer all over the sides. But now whoever had been putting them up all over Saeng Seong had placed one against one of the video terminals and used a screencap function, effectively advertising in every medium this oh so mysterious person can think of. With the drawings and color reads the following:]

Need a special gift for Christmas, New Years, Birthdays or Just Because?
It's all good. The Black Condor Crafter is now taking commissions for:

-Clothing (Hats, scarves, gloves, oven mitts, aprons, etc)
-Dolls (Any person or animal from your world or theirs, any size)
-Accessories and Odds & Ends (Cozies, brooches, charms, necklaces, bracelets)


Cost? Price of materials only. Not here to make money off this.

Sound good? Leave a message on this channel, make it private. We can deliver to you or whoever it's made for.

Not bad. You feel like making the delivery or will I be dropping it off to the guy?

Oh, I'll give it to him. Otherwise you'll end up with confused September and that can be a bit awkward. :D

Sure.

You'll get a message when it's ready to go and I can come drop it off. Gonna keep the picture as reference.

Awesome. Look, once the holiday rush is over, I'd like to talk commissions. I've got a couple of projects which need someone who works in fabric to make them work properly.

I...also have a source of extremely long rabbit fur, if you do any felting or weaving.

I was thinking of keeping this up after the holidays anyway! I can help out on some projects.

I can do weaving too.

[Didn't help that his mom always dragged him to sit down to watch and learn.]

Great. I basically want to make a wall's worth of pocket planters for my herbs. I can do the framework but not the pouches!

[topgun_textiles]

Damn, a whole wall?

Oh yeah. You tarp the wall and floor and cover the floor bit with a good mat, right? Then you build a framework a bit away from the wall--that part I can do--out of bamboo, because it can handle lots of moisture and is really strong. You hang the rows of heavy felt pockets from them using grommets and hooks. The fill is in layers so it drains right. It lets you grow a lot of little plants using vertical space, which is good for an apartment. See, I'm an herbalist, so I need a whole lot of room for relatively little plants, and I need them year round, which means indoors.

You got a hell of a project ahead, but it's gonna be seriously cool once that's all done.

Thanks! Just let me know when the stuffie's ready and I'll get the cash together.
