This episode is from our first public recording of the podcast. We had an ice cozy spot to fire up the microphones at the Handmade City Holiday 2013 Event.

In this episode, we conduct several interviews with some of the amazingly artistic vendors and a few listeners of our podcast that were at the event.

We start our interviews off by interviewing Rose Noble of Handmade City. Rose is the engine behind the HMC machine, which has been doing events in the Quad Cities since 2010.

The second interview is with Jody Stoffer from Pajama Love. To quote from their Etsy page:

We enjoy creating cute and quirky dolls, accessories, cards, and other curiosities. PaJama Love is a collaboration of three individuals. Paulette and Jody make glass block night lights and enjoy experimenting with etching and decoupage. Jason uses new and vintage materials to create sock dolls, especially pirates. Jody uses fabric and rubber stamp techniques to make greeting cards; crochets toys and accessories; experiments with making felt softies; and creates crochet patterns (she is also lucky enough to be Official Dolly Hairdresser!).
