I am also anxiously awaiting the arrival of the new 3 strand floss & pearl cotton collections from Valdani. If you haven't tried the Valdani threads yet you really do need to give them a try. They are beautiful! The collection is call "Heirloom" and there are 12 new dull & tarnished colors in this group. The new colors are as follows:Rust, Withered Green, Blackened Teal, Nostalic Rose, Ancient Gold, Washed Orange, Darkened Blue, Forgotten Lavender, Khaki Black, Melancholic Purple, Blue Black & Faded Brown. I can hardly wait to "play" with these new colors....have I mentioned a box of new Crayola Crayons was my new toy of choice as a child?? Some things never change!

Last but not least, we have two new color collections of wool felt that will be arriving soon. Watch our website for their arrival.
Until later,

Coming to Gordman's this fall....


I received some exciting news today....Boo Jack & Jack-in-a- Hat have been picked up by the Gordman's stores. These are reproductions of original pieces that I hand sculpted from paper mache with wool trim. Also picked up are two long skinny screen printed pictures will wool applique accents...both with a Halloween theme. All items can be found in Gordman's Department stores this fall.
