I saw an amazing glass sculpture this morning that was posted on Facebook. It was by glass artist Janis Miltenberger. As soon as I saw it and then her web site, I had to share her with my readers. She works in borosilicate glass and creates these fabulous cage-like sculptures that are beautiful and delicate looking. On her web site she shows a bit of the process she goes through for a goblet. Check it out. And be sure to look at all of her various sculptures. There are wall hangings and cages and houses and goblets…the piece pictured here measures over 5′ tall. Amazing!!

Viral Crochet Prodigy Story Takes Dark Turn — But We’re Staying Focused on the Craft
Yes, we know — it might seem odd to say “we’re not commenting” while… saying something at all. But here’s the thing: when a name so closely tied to the crochet world makes headlines for something this serious, not acknowledging it could feel like we’re sweeping it under the rug. And that’s not who we are. We have numerous posts and patterns that link to Jonah’s hands; these were all published PRIOR to any allegations. At this stage, we have not decided whether to remove the content.
We’re not here to speculate, fuel drama, or chase clicks on someone else’s pain. We’re here to clarify where we stand about Jonah’s Hands.
– This is a police matter.
– Jonah Larson is still a minor.
– We will not comment on the case.
We’ve always believed that crafting is a safe, supportive space. That doesn’t mean ignoring real-world events — but it does mean handling them with care and responsibility.
Let’s continue to support one another and keep this space kind, creative, and community-focused.
