I've been dyeing, sewing, painting, drawing, beading and felting in Denver, Colorado for quite some time. I especially love starting with a blank piece of paper or fabric and coming up with my own designs from scratch.
I've been making art dolls for several decades and out of this evolved my cloth pins and ornaments. Each one is like a miniature version of my larger art dolls.
My pins and ornaments are first sewn of good quality white cotton fabric and then stuffed with polyfill. Then they're hand dyed, hand painted and finally beaded. A pin back is sewn securely on the back of the pins. Because of the nature of the hand dyeing, no two are ever exactly alike.
My spouse loves to spin and weave, and I dye warps for his beautiful handwoven scarves.
I've been painting my entire life and especially love to paint in a celtic or medieval style, but pure fantasy is also great fun.
The well fleshed orange kitty that my shop is named after is Donovan who has his own web site.
This morning I thought I'd share a picture or two of Eric, the ten pound tabby, doing what he does so well - snoozing in a box. If there's a box around, Eric will sleep in it. Sometimes he doesn't fit so well in it, but he always tries.
Simply adorable. I love kitties and all the mischief they can get into. BTW I've listed in My Favorite Blogs, blog. http://theseaconnetloft.blogspot.com/
Wow--now that would make a wonderful gift--what an absolute cutie! I have a cat who likes to hang out in boxes (or any small space he can cram into) as well.

That's an especially nice one, as boxes go! I can see why Eric likes it!
Cute picture. :)
awww, I want to give him a big fast squiggy hug which he so would not appreciate :)
Allie likes to sleep in odd places (like the crock pot!) We think that box is a pretty comfy looking snoozing spot!

Actually, Eric probably would appreciate the hug. He really loves affection and would purr loudly.

Awesome place to have a relaxing Sunday nap. Chica prefers the shopping basket ;-)
Haha, cats and boxes... always a good combination! This is a nice box, my Freyja would love it too!
It's looks so very snuggly :)
It's especially cute the little end of his tail playing peek-a-boo ;)

Eric looks adorable! A cat can fit into any box, just ask him!
