It's a Little Sketchy

When I was at market in Dallas, I had many requests for a
Texas-themed design, and a boot design.  So, I have been
working on some sketches...working out ideas, etc.  This is
always the first step in the process!

I have been trying to decide on slogans or sayings too.  The
bags I am thinking about are a little larger, and would
make a good weekend bag.  

There is a bright turquoise bag and a good red bag.  I would like to
use them.  The Texas design would be good on the red bag,
and the boot design will be on the turquoise bag.  I would like to
get a sample bag from the company in order to match the colors well.

I will try to post the progress on these designs.  yeehaw!
I would welcome any comments or suggestions.

YeeHaw!



I am still in Dallas at the gift market, and I have been selling
lots of cowboy and Texas images.  I wish I had brought more!
I sold these two today, along with some other boot themed pieces
to a woman who owns a decorative accessories and furniture business
near Austin.  She would like more pieces like this, maybe some windmills
and barns.  I will get some done, and let her know.

I also sold some of the chalkboards today, and have some interest in more
of them also from several clients.   I have given out a lot of brochures and info
to lots of buyers from gift shops all over the area, so I should see
some online orders in the near future.  They have also given me some
ideas about what they want.  I would like to come out here again in June,
and I will definitely have some more of what they are looking for!
