September Update
Sorry this is a bit late. Anyway, the updates are pretty much the same as last month:
Monthly Challenge:
September’s theme is “Harvest”, so now is the time to make those fall themed items. Be sure to tag your challenge items with “septemberchallenge” as well as the usual “EtsyFAST team” (without the quotes, of course).
Featured Members:
I’m going to keep posting team member interviews for as long as I keep getting them. 
Info and the questions can be found in this thread in the yahoo group. Just send your answers (and a picture or two if you’d like) to me at merigreenleaf[at]yahoo.com (or send a convo to merigreenleaf on Etsy), and I’ll post them in the order I receive them. This is great way to get to know everyone!
Team Tag:
Don’t forget that the new tag has the word “team” in it! If you haven’t yet, please change the tag to “EtsyFAST team” (without the quotes) when you get a chance.
Blog Contributions:
We’re still looking for content for the blog. If you’ve got a fiber-related tutorial you’d like to share, or maybe experiences with craft shows, or anything you’d think is helpful, just let me know! Email me (merigreenleaf[at]yahoo.com) or send me a convo and we can either set you up with blog access or I can post the article for you. Also, if anyone has any ideas for the blog, please tell me.
Team Shop:
I’m slowly adding things to the team shop and will be adding goodie bags soon- the deadline to get goodie bag things to me is mid-September. You can send individual items to me at any time, and I’ll be collecting things for the goodie bags a few times a year. For more info on donating things to the team shop, check out this blog entry.
Random News:
Bonnie (BonnieSamuelDesign.etsy.com) has written up some useful and informative posts on her blog about fiber. You can find them here.
