I Am Orange, (and so is this felt sleeve)

I decided it was appropriate to make an Oregon State Beaver inspired coffee sleeve. You see, as just about all Oregonians know, this week marks the 113th Civil War game between Oregon State University (GO BEAVS!!!) and University of Oregon. Hmmm, is it hard to tell which side I am on?


This is THE game of ALL games for these two teams this season. It's the Civil War for the Roses, baby! The winner of this game will go to the Rose Bowl. It has never before in the history of these civil war games that "both teams have entered the game with the "winner take all" scenario", as detailed by OSU Beaver Athletics.

So with much enthusiasm, spunk, and team spirit, I made a stunning orange and black coffee sleeve. With hand cut letters of felt on two layers of (wait for it...) more felt that spell "GO BEAVS", any OSU fan would be proud to hold this cup of coffee!

I know I am!!!!

O-S-U! FIGHT, FIGHT, FIGHT!

Exciting New Addition to My Family

Well, sort of, a new "addition". While doing some after-Christmas shopping, I bought a mannequin! I am very excited about the possibilities and uses of her (sewing helper, photo shoot model, dog sitter, and HOV lane passenger, etc.) But now I think she needs a name and I'd like your help....Please see my poll and vote on your favorite (or if you have a better suggestion, just add a comment and I'll consider adding it to the list).
