Post-Con Report: Anthrocon 2015

Well, we're back from Anthrocon 2015!
We both had fun and had lots of visitors to our table! Thanks to everyone who stopped by and purchased or looked at our goodies and chatted with us.

Zura did quite a few Paracord commissions on-site:

She did quite a few lanyards too, but as luck would have it, forgot to take photos of any of them... Go figure...

There's a fair list of folks that we'll be getting in touch with soon for leatherwork commissions. Just gotta get over the jet-lag and get ourselves back in order. Watch your in-boxes!

Anthrocon 2015 Info

Well, it's that time of year again! Here's our info for Anthrocon 2015:

Arriving: Sunday, July 5th Departing: Tuesday, July 14th
Staying at: The Westin. We're both very curious to see how the new elevator systems handle all the traffic. Should be ... interesting.
Hanging out: Zura:Mostly at our dealer's table. Otherwise, with the usual crew.
                      Karma: A little of everywhere. Catch Zura if you need to get in touch with me right away.
Dealer info: Silverwind Studios will be at table B06/07 this year. Look for the blue tablecloths.

That's the basics! Easiest way to find me at con is to come see me at the dealer's table. Otherwise look for Karma - big guy, leather pants and black hair with red streaks.

Oh, and for anyone interested, catch Karma or FoxAmoore for details on the CD release party!
