Crafting Superstars Update

In June, I posted about a TV show for which I got my friends to submit with me. Well, we have been selected to be on a least one episode of Uncommon Threads, a new show that just aired on the DIY network. They want us to do some of the felted sweater re-creations that we submitted. The taping is tentatively scheduled for September, and it is for Season 2. They just aired Season 1 on July 3.

I had submitted other ideas, and it looks like we may have a chance to do another episode based on pet-themed stuff. It's still not final yet, and it doesn't look too promising, but I am keeping our fingers crossed. I submitted a yoga-themed idea that the producer like, but the studio execs didn't, so we are definitely not doing that.

So between now and September, the girls and I have to get ready and do all the peices for the demo parts. We already wrote out and submitted all the instructions and other paperwork. So exciting!!

Btw- I have not heard anything from the folks at The Art of Knitting regarding our knitting group's filming. I sent Marcy, the producer, an email requesting information on the status. Everyone in the knitting group is eager to find out and see whether we are on the video or ended up on the cutting room floor. At the time of filming, Marcy did say that she would give us a couple of copies.

That must be really exciting! I have to see what time the show airs in my state and tune in...I see a lot of things on comcast that say DIY, but never with knitting content.
