Strange things hanging around my studio . . .

Strange things hanging around my studio?
Well, I guess you could say that . . .


"What is that thing hanging from the light fixture?", you ask.


It's "Tulsi" a fairy doll that I designed for Manhattan Toy years ago.
She was from the "Beneath the leaf" series.


Here's a couple of old Manhattan Toy catalog shots.
There was (left to right) Ushi, Nishi, Lici, Nilli, & Tulsi.

One of my many previous lives in this life. (smile)
Other previous incarnations include, Bank VP, Dog Grooming business owner, Riding Instructor, Factory worker, Massage therapist, Shiatsu practitioner, Student of Chinese Medicine, Toy Designer, Sporting Goods Designer, hmmm, What will I do next?
I'd like an answer to that question too. But for now Scrap-bags™ pattern designer fits the bill.


Lucy's Gorgeous Discharged Fabrics - Minnesota Quilters Quilt Show




-


Yesterday I visited one of my very favorite local quilt shops. Aunt Annies in Avon MN. Lucy the owner was preparing to exhibit at the Minnesota Quilters - Quilt Show, Duluth MN.

One of the features of Lucys booth will be her discharge-dyed fabrics. Each one is gorgeous and one of a kind! I just couldn't leave her shop without these two!!! I hope you will stop by her booth and say Hi if you are attending the Quilt Show.
