One-of-a-Kind Any Way is Up Bubble Quilt
***SOLD***SOLD***SOLD***
ITEM#: STAFF3





DESCRIPTION: This bubblelicious quilt in pastel colors measures 34"x 35" and is a version of the pattern called Harmonic Convergence by Ricky Timms. It is based on the Fibonacci Sequence. (You will have to look it up.)
The 100% cotton fabric is two soft shades of a polka/dot and bubble motif paired with a pink hand dyed cotton fabric and an aqua cotton batik fabric. The borders and the binding are a mix of the two polka dot/bubble fabrics. Amazingly accurate circles are randomly machine quilted over it and are mixed with a few straight lines to echo the design. (Detail available upon request.)
It makes a happy and peaceful wall hanging which could also be used as a table topper if you prefer. I see it in a child's room adding harmony and gentleness to the space.

Pair of Previously Loved Dog Sledding Books

ITEM#: STAFF2
 
DESCRIPTION: This offer is for two previously read books about running Sled Dogs,Woodsong by Gary Paulsen and Sled Dog Trails by Mary Shields.

 
Woodsongby Gary Paulsen
Gary Paulsen is well known for his book Winterdance about running the Iditarod. This small hardcover book, Woodsong, was written before Winterdance and is the story of how Mr. Paulsen came to dog racing and his Iditarod race in 1984. The parts about the race are amazingly interesting and give you a real idea of the difficulties which are hard to imagine. It took him 17 days to finish his race.
This is a good clean reading copy although it is a former school library book and includes student names in the back. (None have become famous.)
Woodsong's awards include a School Library Journal Best Book Award and an ALA pick as a Best Book for Young Adults. It has been decorated by some artistic child by inking in the last "O" in Woodsong with nice purple ink. I suspect the 4th borrower.
Sled Dog Trails by Mary Shields. (autographed by the author)
Mary ran her first Iditarod in 1974; the second year the race was run. She was one of two women who finished and came in in 22nd place. She was ahead of the second woman by 2 hours and that is how she became the first woman to ever finish the Iditarod.
Sled Dog Trails starts out telling how Mary, who grew up in Wisconsin, came to Alaska as a Camp Fire girl summer counselor while still a student and her vow to return. It explains how she started with a few dogs and the many things she learned with them. It is a gentle book and her love for her dogs shines through it. The Iditarod race is just one of her many trips with her sled dogs. My favorite part is what she does after finishing the Iditarod. The lucky purchaser of this book will be able to find out.
This paperback book was published by Pyrola Publishing and a post card was tucked inside with information about other books published by Mary Shields. Everything looks untouched although I did, of course, read it so I could make sure all was OK. ;-)

Custom, One-of-a-Kind Snowhook Padfolios

ITEM #: SDT1

DESCRIPTION: Custom made, one-of-a-kind Snowhook Padfolios with letterpress printed 5.5: x 8.5" notepad.  The Padfolio cases are made from 100% repurposed materials.  Made with salvaged exotic book cloth, faux leather and alligator print debossed stocks and high quality book board saved from a large commercial bindery.  

Each padfolio, custom made by the Turtleman, is different. He combined different colors of book cloth for the cover and liners and used high quality stocks for the spine wrap and pocket accents. A (French turned) pocket is on the inside front cover. The lightly lined pad stock was run through a press 3 times to imprint the printing press image, the From the desk of line and the 3 happy dogs.

The letterpress imprints were run on a 127 year old Golding 'Pearl', treadle driven, 1886 floor model, letterpress. Each sheet individually hand fed into the press. Hand set vintage lead type was used for the Snowhook text.

Each padfolio cover was individually hot foil stamped, Staff and Dawson assisting, using antique lead type and a variety of decorative foils. Some were ‘hit’ twice for what the Turtleman calls "that sweet 'drop-shadow' effect".

Retail price of custom items like this would be in the 50.00 range, but for Special Snowhook Supporters, the price is...ONLY $17.00.
