(I'll feel really stupid if it's Chris doing the selling, but at least he got some free adverstising in.)

Yup, those are mine. I didn't feel comfortable hawking merchandise here, but I'm more than happy to talk about it if someone else does
I've actually made some money with this store, but I've sunk it all into buying other people's Firefly stuff so it works out. Coolest moment so far? Going to the advance screening in Tampa and seeing someone else wearing one of the Advance Screening T-shirts. I got her attention across the room and yelled, "Thank you!" while nodding towards her chest. About the time I realized that could be taken badly she looked down, said, "These are yours?" and then yelled "Your stuff totally rocks!" Then she sent over all the people who had been stopping her all night, asking where she got it.

I thought it was pretty exciting (despite your thread title disclaimer). I already sent the link over to several FireFly/Serenity fans that I work with -- in case they haven't seen this shop before...
So, do I get to say "I knew him when..." even though we've never met?
It's also cool that the only other person I know who has made actual money from a cafe press shop also lives in Orlando. Hmmm.

Sadly, they don't. I know another fan is selling patches, but I haven't seen anything set up through a servive anywhere.

kwsni, do you know anyone with a quilting or embroidery machine? They almost always come with software that allows you to convert a simple image to their file format and embroider it on fabric. I've made patches with one before, and they turned out quite well.

I don't, or I'd be all over that. My mom and I are the only people I know that even know how to run a sewing machine.
I haven't looked aorund for embroidery places around here, either. They may have some help, though I think I'd have to order in some quantity to have them not cost an arm and a leg. Hmm.
