Hello guys! maytel and I are cracking our skulls trying to figure out what needs to be done for the galleries for the Gallery Makeover Project, so you may see a few of these tiny journals popping out. I will address specific topics on each one and we need your input and feedback on them. If you want to give your opinion about any other topic, please check out this journal.

The Artisan Crafts gallery doesn't belong to me, maytel or any other volunteer. It belongs to YOU, the community. Neither of us would dare make anything the community is not happy with. We are not the leaders of the Artisan Crafts community, we are your humble servants. So please don't be afraid to share your opinion!

Here's the current Needlework gallery:

Needlework
          / Crochet
          / Cross Stitch & Embroidery
          / Knitting
          / Other

A couple of proposals have been made, please let us know your opinion about them!

A hard one for sure, since amigurumi is both needlework and a plushie. Some people suggested to move it to the needlework gallery. Is this a good decision?


  • Create a Needlefelting sub-cat under Needlework.

Felting, and particularly needlefelting, have become increasingly popular, and it may be time to create a gallery for them. We have two options here: create a Felting gallery under textiles, a Needlefelting gallery under Needlework, or both. Creating a needle felting gallery will house the increasing amount of submissions, but creating just one Felting gallery will make less clutter and keep all kind of felting together in one place. Your thoughts?


We are really eager to read your comments and suggestions, so please don't hesitate to write!

I'd keep amigurumi with plushies as they are basically plushies.

Yes make a needlefelting gallery but not under needlework as that would imply that it's been sewn (using needle and thread) and needlefelting is anything but sewn work.
