Tangerine Pie — if that sounds good, check it out!

Well, I finally decided to purchase some fabric tags to up the “Branding” aspect of Haley Studio.

And I love them!  They will appear on the newest batch of Cat Head Dolls, matzo covers, and other sewn items.  I think they’d be too large for the Pocket Lovecats though — I don’t want them to look overwhelming.  Click for a larger look.

Check out my upcycled tote bags, now on Etsy.  I bought gently used tote bags and covered the words printed on them with folksy applique.  I’m tempted to keep a lot of them for myself!  Find them in the Bags and Purses section of my shop.

Wow, 100 Etsyans like me!  Thanks, everyone.

I visited the festival last weekend and came home with 4+ pounds of roving… 3 pounds are variations on “gray” and the fourth is a deep rose.  The “+” was my door prize –  a blue/gray/mix blend of wool, mohair, and silk.  Unfortunately I lost the tag for that one, so I’m not sure the proportions.  Sad.  I think I’m set — at least until the Jefferson County Sheep and Wool Fest in September!

I’m in a treasury with a lot of beautiful folk arts! Thanks to wildhare who is also a spinner!
