A very talented and fresh writer, Kari Chapin has opened up a world of handmade incite like never before through her first book The Handmade Marketplace. Her style of writing draws you in and makes you say "I could totally do that!".

The other thing that I love about this book is that Emily Martin did the artwork all through out (my two favorites in one place...sigh)!!
