Getting Back Out There...At My Own Pace

This season is looking a little different for me. After having to step away from outdoor markets and events for a while due to health considerations, I’ve been much more intentional about what I add back to my calendar.

The good news is, I have strategically added several upcoming events!

I’ve spaced things out and chosen events with the hope that the cooler weather and my body will cooperate. I may still need to make adjustments along the way, but I’m excited to start getting Naturally MelissaMade back out into the community without overloading myself in the process.

You can see all of my upcoming events on the Community Calendar or visit my Where to Find Me page for the latest details about where I’ll be popping up next.

I’ll also continue sharing event announcements on social media and in my newsletter, especially if plans change.

And, of course, Naturally MelissaMade isn’t limited to in person events! You can still find handmade creations, crochet classes, free patterns, blog posts, and our growing Hook Nook community right here online.

I’m learning that showing up doesn’t have to mean showing up everywhere, all the time. Sometimes it means choosing where I spend my energy a little more carefully so I can truly enjoy being there when I do.

Whether we connect online or you stop by to see me at an upcoming event, I’m grateful you’re along for the journey.

Here’s to cooler weather, cooperative bodies, handmade adventures, and creating confidence one stitch at a time.

Custom Crochet, Made for You

October 2026 • Big ideas and little makes welcome

Have something in mind that you haven’t found on a store shelf? Let’s talk about making it just for you.

I welcome custom orders big and small, from dish scrubbies and everyday household favorites to cozy afghans, wearables, and meaningful gifts. Whether you’re imagining something practical, playful, or personal, your idea is welcome here.

This month, think cozy colors, cooler weather comforts, and thoughtful gifts for the season ahead. You don’t need a complete plan to get started. A favorite color, an inspiration photo, or a simple “Could you make…?” is enough to begin the conversation.

Let’s Bring Your Idea to Life

Submit your Custom Order Request to share your idea today.

I’ll review your request and contact you to discuss what’s possible, pricing, and a timeline before your order is confirmed.

Timing depends on the project, materials, and my current schedule. If you’re planning a gift for a special date, reach out early so we can explore the possibilities.
