Where has the time gone...

So the blog has been quiet for the last month. Things have been really busy around here between getting Christmas orders made and shipped, Getting a few orders for stores ready, and of course the Christmas shows. I thank everyone who stopped by to see us at one of the shows recently. Its so nice to meet everyone.

Im off to go make some infinity scarfs today for a big order, and dyes some more canvas to make some Lazarette clutches tomorrow.

But in other news, The Parade Of lights is this weekend in Annapolis, and im pretty excited about going this year because ive been invited to a waterfront house party so I can enjoy the parade from indoors where its warm!

Here are some pics from years past, Hopefully ill get so good shots to share for next week.

Fall Series

Over the weekend we were the race committee for the last races of the fall series. It turned out to be a crisp, bright and beautiful day. Im still kicking myself because I left my camera sitting on my desk. A true digital camera the new Iphone is not, specially on a moving boat. But here are some of the pictures, they didn't quite capture all the fall colors but came out alright.

Driftwood

The heavy rain the east coast had last week caused high tides and major flooded along the Susquehanna river.

Which has caused lots and lots of debris in the bay, and on our beach.

Last night while we were racing the Wednesday night series we had to dodge all the branches and logs that were poking out of the water.

After seeing a mirror made of drift wood a few years back at Anthropologie that was over $1500 I started collected the pieces that would wash up on our little sand spit or that I picked up off the beach down at the ocean.

Over the last 2 days i've been able to add a lot to my collection.



and thats just what I pulled out of the water around the dock and shoreline this morning.

Now im trying to decide what to make with all of the driftwood.

Fall Preview - Sailor Knot Cuff


I've been playing with dyeing sailor knot cuffs lately to use as accent on handbags and scarfs. The dye doesn't take quite as well as with cotton fabrics but it gives the cording a muted washed look.



Here's a peek at a Fall Organic Bamboo Scarf with sailor knot cuff
