Today is November 29.   I participated in a 2-day craft fair last weekend and The Lloyd Nordstrom event supporting Children’s Hospital the week before.

So far I have I spent the morning sorting through my various projects and taking inventory of my current items.  As always,  I  have large number of projects underway there’s never enough time to get it all done.  I really need to focus on one or two things and get moving so I am ready for another short fair next week.

I plan to upload some new photos later this week to Duds for Dogs page and I will be updating the variety of tote bags–including faux suede animal prints and coated cotton versions. These will be on my  People Stuff page.

I’ve been out of the loop for a while– too many things going on, too hard to concentrate but now that fall has set in, I’m back at my  sewing machine with new ideas and offerings. Expanding horizons and reaching beyond the tots and dogs. Check out the new items on “Tots”, “Dogs” and “People” pages.

Combining Asian inspired design with the genteel English idea for keeping the pot of tea heated, entered the tea cosy. Dramatic black and red cotton companion print panels with thermal and contrast
print linings deliciously adorned with handcrafted trim. Click on the image to see a larger picture in your browser.

Some of us love coffee to and not everyone is into high tech, electronic coffee makers. Enter the French Press “coffee pot cosy”.
This version is for the large size and comes in variety of coffee and/or French inspired prints. Lined with thermal material and backed with a companion print.
