Gifts from Our Customers


One of the best things about making and selling fiber art tools, is the beautiful works of art we receive from our customers. This is a sample of what Dave's little tools can do in the hands of a fiber artist.

Tatsy Style Oregon Myrtlewood Tatting Shuttles














Dave has recently finished a commission where he was asked to make a pair of Tatsy style tatting shuttles. Oregon Myrtlewood was requested for these 4 1/2 inch x 1 1/4 inch Tatsy style shuttles as was our Oregon Cascade logo and initials of her and her loved one.

New Ceramic Basket Embellishments Added to Our Cache


We have the best customers in the world! I hope each and every one of you knows how much we appreciate your loyal patronage of our work!

We awoke this morning, to find that a wonderful customer had purchased our entire selection of ceramic basket embellishments! As a result, you will now find a fresh batch of ceramic centerpieces in our "Grizzly Mountain Cache" Etsy shop. We are considering putting some of our "seconds" in the Cache for use by mosaic artists. If you've ever fired clay, you know how aggravating it is to find small holes filled with glaze. Those are nearly impossible to clear without breaking, so you end up with a piece that's only good for smashing into a mosaic supply.
