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.
What is it with cats-in-the-box? I have an all orange tabby, too. His name is Tigger (that's original, I know). He's around 11 years old now. Somehow, he always manages to find even the littlest box to sit in! LOL! Mine was getting fat and started developing diabetes, so we had to put him on a diet....now he's healthy again!

Aww, what a cutie! Mine love a box too...or an empty basket...I have a picture somewhere of one overflowing an empty flowerpot!
I love that face! Really adorable.
he looks a little pudgy in that box, he must find a thinning box! Cats should never have their photos taken in 'large' boxes :)
