As one of the Blog Coordinators, she helps things run smoothly, assists with the Friday Feature interviews, and keeps the info up to date here at the blog. She says, "I'm a Philly girl who recently relocated to San Francisco! Kelly Drive is the name of the windy road behind the Philadelphia Art Museum which exudes classic and magical beauty. My shop is a homage to this strong, yet whimsical feeling experienced by so many. I love building clothing; the challenge and the excitement." Her favorite item in her shop is this lovely Scalloped Petal Top in Cranberry:

Her favorite item in her shop is this BOOBS Calculator Cover, about which she says, "It's incredibly silly and kind of represents my sense of childish, nerdy humour."

Dorothy took a seminar on making ribbon roses almost 2 years ago and she was hooked. She started turning out fabric flower pins and hair clips and opened an Etsy shop in January of 2010. She appreciates all the support that the SF Etsy Team provides and is glad to be able to make a contribution.

Stephanie of SinceSass is the crafty mind and writer behind the article Tuestorials. Her favorite item in her shop is this Glitter Vinyl Zipper Pouch:
Stephanie says, "Born and raised in Las Vegas, I moved to San Francisco 10 years ago and find myself constantly inspired by the people, landscape and opportunities. I started sewing when I was 11 and this has always been my main source of creating things. My shop, SinceSass, is retro style mixed with a dash of sass to make unique accessories for everyday use. I believe an item I make should last a long time and make you smile every time you look at it. I'm excited to be part of the SF Etsy team and look forward to sharing many crafty how-tos!"
