Ni hao all you Browncoats out there!
Well, things certainly have been happening here at Ma Cobb's Hat Shoppe, and I haven't had the time to update! I've been working on some very exciting new surprise goodies to send along with every hat order! I won't give it away, but lets just say my packages are looking more and more authentic these days! And all my hats will now be accompanied by some very exciting 'verse-related swag! No, there won't be any black market beagles in there, or wobbly-headed geisha dolls, but I assure you that if you are a Browncoat, you will be excited! So go ahead and order a Jayne hat, and see what you might get! :)
In other news, the Toronto gang of Browncoats are busily organizing this year's Can't Stop The Serenity screening, and you're invited! Ma Cobb herself will be donating hats for the cause. Even if you're not in the Toronto area you can support Equality Now by attending a screening in your area! Check out Can't Stop The Serenity to find an event near you! There is so much great stuff to be won folks! You really don't want to miss it! Alright, last but not least, I have also opened up a shop on etsy.com, which is website for all things artsy & craftsy & handmade. You can check me out at fadingendlessly.etsy.com to see all my 'verse and non-verse related items. I will still be selling hats at www.geocities.com/fadingendlessly, but I just thought I'd branch out a bit and share my other crafts to them that need them. So please feel free to take a look around, and let me know what you think! Also, please join the Ma Cobb group over on facebook! Ma Cobb would love to have you!
Well, I think that's all for now. Please come out and join your fellow Browncoats for Can't Stop the Serenity screenings at the end of June! It's all for a good cause!
Keep flyin!
Love,
Ma Cobb

Cedric of the Bedlam Bards, Equality Now, and Ma Cobb's Hat Shoppe!
Hey again all!
Another quick update to let you know that the Can't Stop The Serenity charity drive is in full swing, and my Jayne hats, among many other pretties, are involved!
Cedric of the Bedlam Bards is auctioning himself off for Equality Now... well... he's actually auctioning off a performance at the charity screening of the winner's choice. Check it out on ebay. as if that wasn't shiny enough for you, he also has a number of other 'verse goodies that will go to the winner including an independent flag from Firefly Cargo Bay and a Jayne hat from yours truly! The money raised goes to the Serenity Charity Screening of the winner's choice to raise money for Equality Now! This year's screenings are already looking to be a shindiggy good time!
And of course there is a lot of planning going on to get those Serenity charity screenings up and running, so be sure to check out your local screening once June rolls around and support your fellow Browncoats, as well as a worthwhile charity!
And now, for some non-screening-related news: I have updated the gallery on Ma Cobb's Hat Shoppe and added a link to a newly created Guestbook, so if you've bought one of my hats in the past and would like to praise it for all to see, please sign the guestbook!
And for those of you on Facebook, please join the Ma Cobb's Hat Shoppe group! Just do a search for Ma Cobb, and you should find me!
Keep flyin!
Love, Ma Cobb

Toronto "Can't Stop the Serenity" Charity Screening in Full Force!
hey all!
I just thought I'd pop by again and let everyone know that it looks as if the Toronto "Can't Stop the Serenity" Charity Screening is GO for 2008! The date and details haven't quite been set in stone as of yet, but it should be sometime around the 23rd of June 2008 (Joss's birthday, and the anniversary of the Serenity pre-screenings). I'll keep ya'll posted once the date gets closer. And of course you can always check the link above for more details as well.
Ma Cobb's Hat Shoppe will be donating a few hats to the cause again this year, and it looks like it's going to be quite a shiny shindig indeed, with many great door prizes, an auction, goodies, and more! So if you're in the Toronto area, please come and join in the fun! All funds raised will be donated to a worthwhile charity: Equality Now!
And don't forget to tune into Space: The Imagination Station this afternoon at 5:30 to catch a glimpse of Ma Cobb's Hat Shoppe. or if you miss that, it airs again tomorrow at 8:30am and 4:30pm.
Keep flyin!
Love,
Ma Cobb

Ma Cobb's Hat Shoppe on Space: The Imagination Station!
Well folks, the Holiday rush is finally over, but there is always more knitting to do! And my little knitting fingers are still working away, so keep those orders coming!
And in other shiny news: apparently Natasha Eloi of Space: The Imagination Station (a cable sci-fi station here in Canada) is doing a story on "geek craft" and wants to include me and my Jayne hats! Some of you may remember my brief stint in Canadian-Browncoat-infamy a couple years back when Space ran an interview I did about the hats and the Serenity fan-table the Canadian Browncoats had at SFX. Well, that footage has been dredged up from the Space archives to make a few return broadcasts! So if you live in Canada and you want to see me geek out (again) on-air tune into Space this Saturday January 19th at 5:30 pm and this Sunday January 20th at 8:30 am and 4:30 pm! "It's gonna be shiny!" ;)
And for those of you who would like to re-visit the old infamous Ma Cobb spot on Space, well then here it is for you, in all its glory:
Yes, that is me, the geek in the Jayne hat. And yes, they got my name wrong, but what can you do. And with that, I shall leave you!
Keep flyin!

Christmas Shipping dates
Hey all,
Here's the promised update on suggested shipping dates for the holiday season. These are the dates that hats must be shipped by in order to reach you before Christmas. This means you should probably put in an order with me BEFORE these dates. The following dates are all Airmail dates (Surface shipping dates have already passed):
Within Canada: Dec 11th
Airmail to the US: Dec 10th
INTERNATIONAL:
Europe/Australia/New Zealand/Asia/Middle East Air: Dec 3
Africa/Central and South America Air: Nov 26
Please remember that these are only suggested ship-by dates and are not at all guaranteed. My suggestion is order early :) and of course if you've missed these dates and you are willing to pay a bit more for faster shipping, just let me know where you are, and I'll quote you a faster shipping price.
Keep flyin,
Ma Cobb

International Shipping Options
Well, better late than never! I've finally updated my paypal buttons on Ma Cobb's Hat Shoppe to take into account the recent higher shipping costs. I've also added paypal payment options for International buyers! Yay! So that's all the updating that I can take for today. I'll be back soon enough though, with Christmas shipping date cutoffs for Canada, the US and International.

Still Flyin' Here at Ma Cobb's Hat Shoppe
Wow! I am really bad at keeping this thing updated! But rest assured, I am still knitting Jayne hats like the mad-woman that I am, so keep the orders coming my Browncoated friends!
I guess I just wanted to send out an update to let everyone know that I am going to be increasing my prices at the beginning of November in order to keep up with the soaring Canadian dollar, and increased shipping prices. It will only be an increase of a couple dollars, and I think it's a reasonable increase, in order to keep my little project going (and to keep my ship flyin'). So, if you order your Jayne hats before Halloween you'll technically be getting a discount, as well as beating the Christmas rush! So order away, kiddies! :) Once November rolls around I'll also be updating the site with Christmas shipping-by dates, so stay tuned!
Thanks for stopping by!
