Baby it's cold outside.

Good Night Everyone,
I am frozen.  I would just like to say I am sorry for not making caps with ear flaps sooner.  I'm going to make them tomorrow.  My ride home was great once my ears lost all feeling from the cold.   Really, I live in California.  I am not made for this kind of cold.  I mean really cold outside.  If only Dean Martin would sing to me into staying in doors.  But, alas no Dean for me.  But earflaps -- that is going to happen.
Yours,
Mary
PS I am featured on this nifty Flicker site: Cold Iron .  It is written by Dave, the guy at Cycle City that I got my Simple City from.  He also bought an Orange Cap from me.   Dave took this great photo of my Daruma- San bag.
Anyway he is a cool guy.  Check out his site.  I am, however, still frozen.
nite,
m

Orange Cap for Dave of Cycle City, and a Dutch Girl Cap for a lady in Brooklyn

Hello Everyone,
I can't believe ten days have passed since I last wrote to you. I have been super busy finishing the Christmas stocking for MaryBeth's grandkid Conor. The pattern was a bit complex but it is all done! Yes. We are very happy about this. I turn it in tomorrow. I hope she likes it.

Now back to alloneword's cap land. I have two orders in for caps (see title). I will be working on them in the a.m.

I also sent off 10 caps to Boston to be silkscreened by e5Charlie and his peeps. I am so excited about this. I will post before and after photos when I get them back. (FYI his stuff is more for folks than kids)

Here is a link to the e5Charlie site:


I hope you like his stuff as much as I do. My favorite is BFF. Which only makes sense, because it is my BFF.

Making stuff and hoping,
Mary E.

PS here is a link to Cycle City (FYI a great shop/site folks tall & small....)


And a query: Should I start making bike basket liners? There are folks who make fancy ones on Etsy and the net...... hummmm....
