I design and hand stitch every piece with love and snark. Along with completed pieces, I sell DIY kits and supplies so we can all create weird art together. Ultimately, my goal as a feminist fiber artist is to inspire change, spark conversations, and contribute to the ongoing struggle for gender equality. Through my art, I aim to challenge traditional notions of craft and elevate fiber arts as a powerful medium for social commentary and empowerment. This is not your grandma’s hand embroidery, or maybe it is, and then I’d really like to hang out with your grandma.”

Ian Barrett, Fuego Fermentations
Facebook | Instagram | Online
“Fuego Fermentations makes carefully composed, unique, balanced and complex fermented vegan and gluten-free hot sauces and BBQ sauces. I was fortunate to have been recently given national recognition by winning a Good Food Award. I take great care and pride in the good food I make as well as the good ways in which I make it. All of my sauces are non-gmo and almost everything in my sauces is locally sourced. I work closely with Rainbow Farms in North Perry to ensure that I use the best ethically and locally sourced ingredients possible. It is important to me that I put as much money as I can back into the Cleveland and Northeast Ohio food systems. The passion I have for chilies and fermented hot sauce is evident in how tasty my sauces are. I offer a wide selection of flavor profiles and heat levels. I have some awesome mild sauces no doubt, but the trend is that more people want heat in their sauces. I take a lot of care dialing in that balance of heat and flavor, which other brands tend to lack. A stand-out of my sauces is the way I use fruit in them. I use just enough fruit to get the layers and complexity I want, and then I cut them off. Like a vocal harmony, there is a sweet spot you can live in, but once one of those notes oversteps its’ boundaries, then it is all off. In order to keep the high-quality standards of my products, inside and out, nothing is co-packed. All Fuego Fermentations products are hand bottled, hand labeled, and hand waxed by me proudly in Old Brooklyn, the community in which we live, at the Old Brooklyn Cheese Company.”

“Oddball Press creates contemporary greetings cards and printed goods. Founded in 2007 by Kati Hanimagi, the company began by introducing wry letterpress printed products and then expanded to offer a playful offset lithography collection. Their greeting card catalog continues to grow, adapting to current trends and evolving through whims and brainstorming sessions. Vintage clipart images, original drawings, and clever quips are the main ingredients of an Oddball Press greeting. The creative process begins through a combination of doodles, first drafts, edits, and modern computing technologies. After more edits, and last-minute second guessing, the designs are ready to hit the press. For production, Oddball Press partners with other printshops and suppliers throughout the country. Founded and based in Cleveland Heights, Ohio, the company strives to be active in its local community by participating in regional craft markets, but it focuses on wholesale business to extend its global reach. Since its humble beginnings, Oddball Press products have been carried in four countries, in 45 U.S. states, in over 200 retailers.”

“Inspired by my love of foraging and bugs, I create botanical insect watercolor paintings along with prints and stickers derived from those paintings. I also make ceramic housewares (plates, small wall shelves, etc) with complementary color schemes and artistic motifs to my paintings for those who prefer their art to have functionality. My goal is always to offer a wide variety of products and price points so that everyone is able to leave with some handmade art that makes them happy, while maintaining a cohesive and visually appealing body of work across two mediums.”

“I sew, using a mix of UPcycled and new materials, to create useful and unique items. I make recycled wool sweater mittens. I take wool sweaters, wash them in hot water and dry them in high heat to shrink the fibers. I cut out all of the pattern pieces by hand and sew them together with a soft fleece lining to make the warmest winter accessory around. They are a must for northeast Ohio winters and make great gifts! I also love to add vintage quilts or fabric to new or thrifted items to create one of a clothing or home accents.”

“Did you know that jewelry creation is about expanding the reflection of light using lustrous metals and beautiful stones? It is my passion to create captivating jewelry and cut stones that are alluring, vibrant, and an expression of that light - talismans or amulets to wear throughout the day. It is my intent that this will be passed on to the wearer. Why? If you are happy, you will naturally spread it like wildfire to everyone around you. And then they will feel good too! I use captivating, natural gemstones, lustrous sterling and fine silver, gold-filled and copper metals in my designs. Why? Historically precious stones and metals have been used to imbue leaders with strength, courage, will and other positive qualities. And in today's terms, precious metals and gemstones are eco-friendly. They are healthy, naturally beautiful, and feel wonderful against your skin.”

In addition to the pillows we also create hardwood dice boxes and trays, stickers, pins, and other bespoke accessories to show off our love of tabletop gaming. I am aided in my making by the wonderful people at Maker Works Community Workshops in Ann Arbor and my incredibly supportive family and friends. Why the focus on tabletop roleplaying games (TTRPGs) like Dungeons & Dragons? Put simply, gaming brings people together and creates connections in an entirely unique way. The shared love of a game can forge connections between people from all walks of life who might otherwise never have the chance to meet. TTRPGs also allow people to experience a wide range of social encounters in a safe space where they can play with their responses, enabling them to better understand themselves and others.”

“2 ODD BIRDS is the culmination of an artist’s passion for creating unique, nature-inspired jewelry. Each piece begins with stones hand-picked directly from Mother Nature, chosen for their natural beauty and character. I complement these stones with brass that has undergone an oxidization process, giving each piece an aged, weathered appeal, as if the stones were unearthed from the ground itself. My goal isn’t to create jewelry that is shiny and perfect; instead, I embrace the raw, unique, and imperfect—much like the spirit of Cleveland itself. At 2 ODD BIRDS, I transform these elements into beautiful, wearable art, designed for those who appreciate the beauty in imperfection and the stories each piece holds. My hope is that you will cherish and love these creations as much as I do.”
