National Crafting Month Bingo Card 3-1-22

Here is my card for the National Crafting Month Bingo Fest and my entry in the National Crafting Month Meet and Greet over in allbingo. It has several different categories. I have made a mixed card. The fest runs from March 1-30. (See all my 2022 bingo cards.)

If you'd like to sponsor a particular square, especially if you have an idea for what character, series, or situation it would fit -- talk to me and we'll work something out. I've had a few requests for this and the results have been awesome so far. This is a good opportunity for those of you with favorites that don't always mesh well with the themes of my monthly projects. I may still post some of the fills for free, because I'm using this to attract new readers; but if it brings in money, that means I can do more of it. That's part of why I'm crossing some of the bingo prompts with other projects, such as the Poetry Fishbowl.

Underlined prompts have been filled.

Poetry Fishbowl Open!

The Poetry Fishbowl is now CLOSED.  Please keep an eye on this page as I am still writing.

Starting now, the Poetry Fishbowl is open! Today's theme is "Artistic Endeavors." I will be checking this page periodically throughout the day. When people make suggestions, I'll pick some and weave them together into a poem ... and then another ... and so on. I'm hoping to get a lot of ideas and a lot of poems.

Note that I'm working on memorial projects for my mother, so shorter, less-plotty prompts would be helpful.

I'll be soliciting ideas for artists, sculptors, woodworkers, quilters, scrapbookers, artists in residence, Applied Arts majors, Municipal Art majors, Studio Arts majors or minors, Generalist majors, Hobby minors, art collection curators, gallery owners, art shop owners, makers of arts and crafts supplies, crafters, philanthropists, an anonymous benefactor, activists, volunteers, teachers, parents, superheroes, supervillains, other creative people, painting, sculpting, woodworking, quilting, teaching art, volunteering, making donations, supporting creative people, offering crash space, yarnbombing, discovering things, improvising, adapting, cooperating, bartering, sharing, fixing what's broke, changing the world, accomplishing the impossible, art schools, art classrooms, arts and crafts studios, artist colonies, arts and crafts farms, hobby rooms, homes with a giant space for arts or crafts, yarn stores, fabric stores, arts and crafts stores, unfinished furniture stores, upcycle junk shops, fiber fairs, street fairs, art shows, Triton Teen Centers, community centers, intentional communities, clubs, fibercraft circles, sewing circles, quilting bees, sketch fests, Thalassia, the Maldives, makerspaces, other creative hangouts, art movements, art history, ethnic arts and crafts, folk arts and crafts, historical or archaic crafts, endangered crafts, still life featuring cultural artifacts, landscape art, art movements, wabi-sabi, Feel and See Art Movement, Touchy Feely art books, edible art, arts and crafts media, multicultural art supplies, creme pastels, Paletta durable art media for making visual-tactile art, zetetic arts and crafts supplies, game design kits, ColorADD, Feelipa, diversity, inclusivity, trial and error, teamwork, found family, complementary strengths and weaknesses, personal growth, and poetic forms in particular.

The Bear Tunnels includes historic crafts.

Daughters of the Apocalypse requires creative use of remaining materials.

In the Calliope thread, Calvin works at an arts and crafts store. There are multiple artsy places such as Yarn Over, the Recycle Bin, and Woolgather Hill.

Birdfeeding

Today is sunny and warmer.

I fed the birds.  I've seen a flock of sparrows, a flock of mourning doves, a pair of cardinals, and a squirell.
