3 Square cool tees by Emma Rose..

Hi All,
My 8 yr. old house mate is designing and decorating tee shirts.  And I just gotta say: they are GREAT.   Here is a link to 3 Square.  She has an Etsy site just like me.  Emma Rose the little kid is just that good.
The Artist At work!
This little guy is my favorite

Mass props and much love to her, her Mom, and brothers.  I am sad that she will be moving out.  Glad that they found a great place, but sad I won't see her create great stuff as often.
Peace Out,
Mary

Hayward Days of the Dead

Hi Everyone,
I have been sewing and sewing and .... wait for it..... sewing.   I ordered two more BOLTS of fabric.  That's right bolts of fabric.   Each bolt equals 18 yards of fabric or 144 caps.  This will be the third bolt of Black fabric I have ordered.
I also ordered several new colors of thread--nifty variegated thread for the name tags and construction.  
My next show is in Hayward on the sixteenth of October.  Here is a link to the event 16 Days of the dead 2010   Please stop on by and say Howdy.
Cheers,
Mary
PS LOVE the Days of the Dead logo!  LOVE. m

Interbike Fashion Show!


Hi Everyone,
Exciting news!  My caps are in the Interbike Fashion Show.   Really.   I know I can hardly believe it myself.   And alloneword is included in a bike blog too, a really cool one called Cyclelicious.   I am hoping to get pictures of my caps on the cat walk (I mean cat ride).

I'll post them as soon as you email them to me.   :)

Peace out,
Mary
