Does anybody else wonder who made the crafts Iola brought over?
Some were nice. Some were hideous. Did it ever tell?

Iola made them.

Seriously, it was stated on the DVD bonus features that Beverly Archer took cooking and craft classes to get into the Iola character more. I wouldn't put it past her that those crafts were actually made by her.

I don't think Beverly Archer herself would have made them. I would think it was the prop department.

Probably right. I was just basing my statement above on her saying in an interview that she took cooking and craft classes.

In one of the bonus features, I believer they mention the name of the woman who made the crafts.

Maybe the simple ones she did, but the more elaborate ones...I think as an actress Archer would have been too busy to make them.
