How did I totally miss this?! Congrats Diane on this milestone! One day you will truly know just how much you and Craftypod have influenced and changed the world! ;) My questions is simple, but complex: why do you do it?

Here's my question. What are some craft projects that didn't turn out the way you had planned?

Hmm, already so many great questions, it's hard to think of anything else. But here goes – what is the oddest/weirdest thing you've crafted with?

I totally LOVE your podcast! I've been listening to you for over a year now and have listened to several shows multiple times. Your podcast about Etsy has opened up a whole new world for me… I started selling a few weeks ago… my question is: Why haven't you ever tried to sell all of your “crafty goodness” on there?

PS – Please do another podcast about buttons, I'm obsessed with buttons and have listened to #33 over and over again… see I even have the number memorized.

Hi Sister Diane! Do you feel like, where your are now in your crafty career is where you were headed when you first started out?

If you'd asked me for a topic I would have demanded a show where YOU were interviewed and really grilled! I am so looking forward to this! I hope K will add some questions too, and let you sweat for a while! hehe. Coming up with a question though is SO hard, how do you do it?

Q: Do you keep a diary/journal or sketchbook/notebook? What's inside it? :-)

hugs!

Ok. How about this? If you were trapped on a desert island with just one small tub of craft supplies, what would you hope would be in that tub, and why?

Wowzers! I've been thinking of what I would ask you, and when I got here tonight, you already have so many great questions! I feel kind of bad about adding another one to your long list. However, I want to know so: How did you decide to teach classes at places like your local library? And how did you get them to agree to it?

Bonus Question: What is your favorite holiday song?

Congrats on 100 episodes, I have listened to every single one.

I really enjoyed your podcast about selling vs hobby. I have a lot of friends who urge me to sell my crafts, but I worry that it'll take the fun out of creating. What can I say to them to so they'll shut up about it? Or should I just give in and sell some stuff?

Congrats Sister D! Wow, this year is going pretty well for you so far. Thanks for being such a resource, inspiration, and supportive crafty pal with your generosity, curiosity, and other osities…
Question: Any trends you see on the crafty horizon? Now that we've had our fill of aprons, owls, and scrabble tile necklaces (but NOT kanzashi – we're just getting started on that puppy!) what's our next pitstop on the highway of crafty goodness?

Hi Diane, I wanted to know what some of the best resources were that you've discovered for up-and-coming crafters. Business basics, getting started selling kinds of resources. Thanks and congratulations. :)

The money might change me if there were any. :-)

Dear Diane,

Now that you're a rich and famous author, do you think the money will change you? Will you forget the little people? Subquestion: Have you had many encounters with the paparazzi yet? If you need any help in that area, I've had a lot of experience with the tabloids and can offer advice. I don't know if I'll ever live down those bathing suit pictures.
