About Us
Fluffy's Compleat Boutique produces tie-dyes and fabric arts from the heart of the Cherokee Nation near Stilwell in the Ozarks Bioregion of Eastern Oklahoma. "My first inspiration for fabric dyeing was the beautiful tie-dye geometrics of Cherokee tie-dye artist Hubert Hogue when I was a teen back in the 1970s. As a quilter, I've always looked for ways to push the envelope toward more personalized and interesting color shapes. This led to hand-dying, so I could achieve unique results. I'm fascinated by off-beat, joyous, whimsical or intricate colors. Now I do more fabric dyeing than quilting." Kathy is involved with Save the Illinos River (STIR), and when STIR printed "Chicken Poop" Shirts, she said, "Hey, let's tie-dye some of these." She dyed 25 shirts. Then more... Then, I started thinking, "Maybe there is some way to come up with a tie-dye shirt for people who don't have $20 to spend on one clothing item. I want everyone to be able to get these shirts if they want one. So I started thinking about ways to make them available." Today, Fluffy's Compleat Boutique features an online gallery of things which can be ordered by email, at www.fluffyscompleatboutique.com. But by purchasing through Oklahoma Food, you can get these items for less or without paying shipping. And teaming up with Healing Herbals, Fluffy's can also be purchased at the Tulsa Farmers' Market. "I'm fascinated that each item is unique. I'm in love with the idea of brightening up the world. It's about making the world feel happy, one shirt at a time. When I retire, this is what I want to do all the time." If for any reason whatosever you are not satisfied with any product from Fluffy's, then you can request a replacement, or a refund which I will be happy to send you by check or arrange with the coop to credit your account next month upon return of the item. And I will pay postage.

Ingredients
Fabric dyes are professional quality, colorfast and permanent. By special arrangement, I can produce natural dye products, but there is some compromise in color vibrancy. That's the tradeoff. These natural dyes are beautiful in their subtlety. For instance, walnut is silvery brown and not as colorfast. But it is elegant and perfect for traditional clothing.

Practices (our standards for raising or making our products)
FUNKY TIE DYED POTHOLDERS are made from quilting scraps of hand-dyed cotton fabric (and occasionally a bit of commercial calico for contrast), and filled with quilter's cotton batting. QUILT SQUARES are made from 18" by 22" preshrunk cotton which is dyed with commercial-quality dyes and specially treated for colorfastness. You can preserve the longevity and color intensity of hand-dyes by washing seperately in cold water with minimal soap, and laying flat to dry. But I don't. I just toss them in the washer with the jeans and other tie-dyes, just in case they might be laying wet in the washer all day. Silk Scarves are woven and hemmed in China. Wash gentle, lay flat to dry and if you iron, iron on cool. Or, if you don't want to iron, wear it scrunchy. Velvets can be machine washed, cool and gentle, flat dried. Don't iron.

Order number of pairs. These are thick chunky all-cotton shoe laces. These are fine for grown-up athletic shoes, and even lace-up boots. Used to be, we wore these as ponytail bows back in the 1960s when I was a kid. Now, I've been a tiedye artist for several years and make these using professional dyes so the colors are unique and will last. Shoe laces are a little different than everything else. Because of the Physics of Laundering Long Things, they tend to hold a bit of excess dye and may run if machine washed in shoes. So wash themseperate, in plenty of water and take them out to dry, keeping the strings from touching light-colored canvas for the first few washes. (You can always hand-wash them in the sink.) In your Producer Note, let me know if you have a color preference, otherwise you'll get whichever pair I happen to like the best when I pack your order.

#12763 Click to enlarge XL Hemp Mudme Pocket Tee XL Hemp Mudme Pocket Tee
Order number of tees. This shirt is only part hemp. It is all mudme. And it is so cool that the photo does not capture the nice blended colors for a great guy shirt. Hemp is better than cotton so we should encourage hemp markets to develop if we care about water quality. This one's a pocket tee. I cannot get any more of these shirts, so this is one of a few left out of many, many ordered and sold. Mudme refers to the technique that results in circles, flowers and planets... sort of, in tie dye and it is accomplished by placing objects inside of little pockets which are dyed seperately. It is hugely time consuming and each mudme shirt takes about two times as long for the art part. This one is priced higher because hemp is expensive, and not because the art wage is higher.

If you were in Bonair, the water could be much deeper because they have great laws to keep the ocean pristine and desalinate all water used on the island. Size XL or Extra Large.

#13362 Click to enlarge Natural Cutch Dyed Silk Habotai Lightweight Copper Marbled Scarf Natural Cutch Dyed Silk Habotai Lightweight Copper Marbled Scarf
Order number of scarfs. $18. 8x52". Natural dyes are unpredictable, so the artist brings out whatever the silk and dyestuffs want to express. Coppery marbled lightweight silk came from this dyeing adventure. I used natural Cutch, derived from Indian Acacia trees in a way that was discovered 2,000 years ago. My technique is updated from the traditional way, but I still ended up with cordovan red hands in making this scarf. In Ayurvedic studies, cutch is a suitable dye for my Dosha. I'm not a learned student to know, but figure it is a good thing that I've chosen an ayurvedic companion, suited to my personality (since I do now have red hands). Its a comfort to know that the dye is also edible and used in Indian cuisine. These colours range from dark copper penny brown to peach. It is a mystery why some places on the silk 'take' dye and other places wick it away. It is very pretty. Hand wash, dry on a towel, and you may iron it on a cool setting with spray starch if you'd like for it to look ironed. Or you could put it on wet and let it dry in a way that matches your contours as you would find in Anthropologie fashion.

Or you can shampoo it when you wash your hair. Or you can wash it with a dab of peppermint soap in the sink and dry it on a washcloth.

One of a kind supercool all cotton long sleeve scoop is made using Cutch from the Indian Acacia Tree and it turned out in the color of just the sweetest slightly peachy pink. As with all hand dyed artisan items, you will find some variance in the shade and intensity. These are not irregularities but rather are uniquenesses distinguishing your wearable art from mass-produced factory vat-dyed soul-less zombie clothes. Well, OK. I am sorry that I said zombie. But you know that it is a good thing when your shirt label points you to more information about the manufacturer's ethics for fair trade and cotton which is grown using responsible practices. It costs a little bit more and the profit isn't as good, but we can pay the real price of wearing clothes and stop subsidizing sweat shops and water pollution. A very soft and fem stretchy shirt.

#13260 Click to enlarge Cedar Apple Rust Fungus Silk Scarf Cedar Apple Rust Fungus Silk Scarf
Order number of scarves. Jackie Dill asked me if those neon orange cedar apple rust fungas starballs would yield a dye, and I just had to try it. Low and behold I found some little cedar trees coming up in my old garden spot, just dripping (literally) with cedar apple rust fungus. They were *really* close to my apple tress, too. So I harvested a stock of them and set to work, using vodka or grain alcohol (don't recall) to extract the delicate chemistry, and *POOF* *VOILA* the result was this gently parchment toned buttery creamy silk scarf that would be gorgeous with a mix of ivory, white, cream and other subtle colors in your outfit. Mushrooms and funguses used for dyeing are so rare, so most people don't know that items made from these dyes are best not line dried in bright sunshine due to sun fading. However, it will hold up nicely thru hand wash and towel drying and many many wearings under ordinary conditions.

Folks, you do not have to resort to bland clothing when you can choose something unique and individualistic unlike any other scarf out there. This fun scarf almost got kidnapped for Fluffy\\\'s private collection. Its made in a slow hand-dyeing process using natural cutch-- from Acacia Trees that grow in India and has been used for dyeing for 2,000 years. I have adapted traditional cutch dyeing techniques for the silk, bamboo and hemp fibers that I use. This one is silk.

Order number of scarves. Thai mudme technique, I am learning without a teacher by observing the ways of the colors. This silk scarf was tied using a mudme technique using round stones which were then coated with soy wax for the resist, and then prepped and dyed with madder root natural dye. Madder root is currently unavailable thru my favorite suppliers and I do not know whether these roots will eventually be in stock or whether this is the last of it available in this country. Batik scarves naturally have a crisp and perky hang which is not as fluttery as other silk, but are best if you want to shape the scarf for a bow.

#13353 Click to enlarge Natural Dyed Silk Scarf- Equation Natural Dyed Silk Scarf- Equation
Order number of scarfs. This was my favorite scarf from several I made using cutch, a natural tree extract. Cutch has been used for 2,000 years. I am accustomed to using natural dyes that take a lot of hard work to set. But cutch is so refined that was like magic. I dyed this scarf and hung it to set, then put my hands into soda ash. Wow! They turned cordovan red! So I rebatched this scarf, adding soda ash, and watched as the colors transformed visibly fast, before my very eyes. The next day, I found it had taken on this mysterious streaking. So, dyeing is all about chemistry. One could describe the rate of flow and rate of chemical bond as different ph color moves thru the fabric, in some equations. Here's the equation-- reduced to the shorthand of visual. Read it like a barcode revealing the mystery of science. Colors are coppery, sometimes dark and bark-textured and sometimes fluid, faint and transparent. This truly unique dramatic piece of wearable art measures about 12 by 56, and it is made of fine silk charmeuse.

Order number of scarves. I would be a big fake if I actually thought I could write in sanskrit. But I am a fan of mysterious writings, and so this silk scarf is scribbled with swirly things. It was a long, involved process to create it. Using soy wax I wrote on it, then dyed it using natural dye which I made with sticks. Actually stems and roots from the madder plant. This is the plant used in ancient times before Christ in the Middle East for coloring womens garments. If you have spent your life wearing colors invented in the 20th century, you may find it awesome (as I do) to wear colors that are so timeless that they were around in Biblical times. Its so cool. This scarf is going to be a bit crisper than, say, the Simple Madder Scarf, because of the waxing process. It can be gently ironed on cool with a towel or tissue on both sides. I just wear them wrinkley because I like it better as a mix of both exquisite hand artisanship and natural expression of silk.

Remember when Lauren Bacall used to wear a little scarf tied at the throat? Like that. Perfect to accentuate a slender youthful neck. Hand wash, towel dry and use a cool iron with spray starch if you like 'em crisp and perky. Or dampen slightly and put it on damp if you like casual anthropologie style.

Order number of scarves. Silk Habotai scarf is hand dyed using natural Madder Root dyestuff. Light as a feather. Diaphanous. Gossamer. Delicate looking. Yet fully prewashed in a lingerie bag in the regular washer to remove all traces of migrant color. Best to hand wash in tepid water and dry flat on a towel. Then you can touch it up with a cool iron if you'd like. Me, I just wear these without ironing, because I like the little bit of added texture and contrast in the lighting that occurs when silk is doing what it does naturally. I am so Anthropologie.

One feature of this shirt is that it stretches in a shapely way, for comfort and a pleasing fit. This one's in long sleeves. Almost everyone who gets this shirt tells me it is their favorite. These were expensive blanks, and come from a fair trade cooperative in Thailand where women actually get paid a fair wage instead of being exploited. Colors are lapis, blue, turquoise, chartreuse and a bit of NSU green. Suitable for office dress.

Just throw it in with any warm or cool load and you can dry it in the dryer on Medium. This one, I've tiedyed to look like gazing into the bottom of a pool. Warning... if you fall in to a pool in this skirt, the Coast Guard may not be able to find you because you're in Pool Camo. This is the only skirt done-up, but I think I do have just a few more of these skirts in S, M and L. If there is a different size or colorway that you'd really like, just send me an email and I will try to make it possible. Hemp is a marvellous, durable comfy fabric. I may have a few hemp pocket tees listed in mens tees. And I can make you a cotton tee that will match this skirt. ktibbits@lrec.org BTW- This fabric is totally legal and bears no resemblance to industrial hemp's cousin plants, Indica and Sativa. Once you wear it, you will always look for hemp.

#11463 Click to enlarge Lightweight Hand Dyed Raspberry Tee Vee Lightweight Hand Dyed Raspberry Tee Vee
Order number of tees. Folks, this is not Raspberry Tea, it is a Raspberry Tee. And a Vee Tee to be exact. It is made from an adult guy undershirt, so its way lightweight and gives you a trim fit. Layer it with boring clothes that are all the same shade, and suddenly you will feel different from people who have on just all boring clothes of the same shade. You will feel like color is something infinite. If you have been worried about lacking distinctness because of solid colored clothing, then just wear this cool tee and you will not be worried any longer. This is my Special Blend Anti Anxiety Color designed to solve that problem. Over and over again, every time you wear it. Seems like I remember this one in the pic is a size Medium, but I will make you one like it in any size you wish, so be sure to include your size in the Producer Note to me when you click to add it to your cart.

Vee Hot Sun Tee sounds like a name in Chinese, but its really this hot vee tee that you can layer or save for hot sunny summer months, when you're not wearing it under your shirty shirt. Artisan made. Yeppers. This is exactly the very first prototype for this design which I think will be popular in the hot months of Summer as Congress thinks about laws to curb global warming. But sometimes a cigar is just a cigar, and perhaps you love it because its bright and sunny. I think this one in the pic is an adult size small, but I'll custom make yours in any size. When you click to add it to your cart, find it and add a producer note telling me your preferred size. For these, I recommend ordering one size larger than usual unless you like a snug trim fit.

This Vee neck tee shirt is called Carribean Camo, because its good camo for the Carribean but not for the deer woods. I'll post those other kind in the Fall. The shirt in the picture is adult size Small, but yours will be in the size you indicate in your producer note to me (S, M, L, XL, 2XL) and will be slightly unique.

Its soft cotton and folds up small. It has a velcro pocket inside and out. Its reversible. And it looks like a cool pool of water. I have used these totes for years, and every time I get a blank for tie dyeing, I end up keeping it and using it for morroccas, for workout clothes, for a diaper bag. But if you fly around in airplanes, you need this. Put a little pillow in there, and rest on the whole thing so your travel pillow has this as a washable cover. Carry your book, phone, wallet and lipstick in it so you will be stocked for travelling and can lose your luggage. Its hands-free. And if your cat is shy but you think you should carry her to the mailbox every day, this is the tote. It even works for an emergency baby sling if you need to go to the garden. Toss it in the wash with any load (but no bleach), and its always fresh and clean. Even if you get drippy meat at the store.

Order number of onesies. In Jamaica, I learned this technique of layering colors one over the other. See in tiedye the colors each have unique characteristics and it takes a long time to learn the nature of each color. Oh, there are about 50 main colors. When you blend you get yet another set of qualities. This one is strawberry, and I made it with my new grandson, Kai, in mind. However, when born he was 11 pounds and a baby that big does not spend very long in a 3-month Onesie before he moves up to a six month size, so my daughter has a wish list of larger onesies I'll be making soon! Colorfast... but wash it alone just the first time so it gets accustomed to your local water conditions. Aft that, it is guaranteed to be colorfast (of course, do not bleach).

Order number of tops or quils. You will be billed for exact weight (approx. 1 - 2 top or quilts) Among other things, this quilt is a sampler for Cherokee syllables. I used four-inch squares of hand dyed (and other) cottons in all different colors that I made, then I wrote Cherokee syllables on them. They say that the more ways you experience something, the better you will learn it. So, knowing it takes 10,000 hours to learn Cherokee, this is one way to add more language learning into my life. Some of these squares will contain words instead of just letters. Part of the border is also blackberries. Blackberries are an important cultural food and they come out to be picked at about Father's Day. This quilt can be bought as just a quilt top ($100) that you can finish or give to someone to finish for you. Or it can be purchased compleat ($450) and you can pick the color (or pattern) on back, the thread colors, whether it is made puffy and deep like a comforter or stiff and strong like an old-fashioned quilt from days gone by. Also, you can decide if you like original artisan free hand machine quilting or patterned quilting such as a feather, shell or fan pattern like our grannies made. Please add your email or phone number to me in the producer notes. Since finishing may take more than a week, let me know if you really really need it by the next order delivery otherwise it might be carried over to the following month. If you'd like to pay a little bit every month, email me personally before buying and I can list it for you that way.

This quilt began life as a bolt of pfd Kona, which is fine plain white cotton. Each strip was hand-dyed by me and then discharge-dyed with Cherokee syllables. If you wish to learn Cherokee, it is a good way to practice. For the completed quilt, make sure I have your correct email or phone number by putting it in the producer notes when you click to add it to your cart. I will reach you for details about customizing this colorful bit of heritage. Also, please know that it is kinda hard to do this much work in one week, so email me asap if you absolutely need it on delivery day (otherwise we will plan on one month later or by mail).

#4170 Click to enlarge Cherokee Water Bug Quilt Cherokee Water Bug Quilt
Order number of quilts. Here is a really sweet quilt with a lot of little cool sewing scribbled on to it. It is called "Cherokee Water Bugs" because it has 2 big water bugs on it. If you know about Cherokee stories, then you will know that the water bugs are a part of how land was made. It also has a Cherokee seal in the middle of it. The thing I like most about this quilt is that it is exuberantly bright in every corner. Some of the squares were purchased from sellers who represented them as Indonesian stamped batiks, but I am not enough of a fabric sleuth to guarantee anything except that they are diverse and play nicely together. I machine pieced it. Dimensions of 82x76 make this quilt useful probably for a twin bed or cot, sofa snuggler, cabin quilt or topper for a full sized bed. Make sure those dimensions work for you, because like the women of olden days, Fluffy just stops makeing them when they are finished and my quilts are not necessarily to standard sizes. Backing is solid black with black thread, and the fiberfill lining makes this a quilt that is lightweight. It will stay sort of puffy and new looking. Machine quilting is stipple with some freehand custom along the chintz border. This quilt is guaranteed to give you the most intriguing, wonder-filled, delightful dreams! Folks, if you are too far from your mother, then this quilt is the next best thing to a big loving hug.

Order number of quiltsRtops. You will be billed for exact weight (approx. 1 - 2 quilt or tops) You can choose a quilt $450 compleat, or just a quilt top for $100 in this great lively fun set of colors set off by great borders. These fabrics were selected to go together on the day that my grandson, Kai Brinkley, was born. If you just want the quilt top, you can choose your own batting, back color, threads, machine quilting pattern (or freehand) and do the quilting by hand or machine then blind stitch or stitch in the ditch to finish off the edges. That will cost you about $350 in time and materials. Or, for $450 you can get a fully finished quilt and I will carry out your wishes about the color of backing, type of batting, thread color and machine quilting style or pattern (freehand art in itself!), the binding style and more. For instance, you might see just one fabric there that would match your room for the backing. Also, many quilters can not work on solid black because it is hard on the eyes and yet in machine custom quilting this is one of the most gorgeous striking quilts when using variegated thread. In your producer note, let me know if you'd like the $100 option or the $450 option. Ordinarily it may take more than one week after orders close to do all of that, but if you have a special occasion, such as presenting a quilt for a wedding shower, I can take heroic measures to help make your order perfect.

#13106 Click to enlarge Civil War Replica Quilt or Quilt Top with Cherokee History Civil War Replica Quilt or Quilt Top with Cherokee History
Order number of quilts. You will be billed for exact weight (approx. 100 - 450 quilt or tops) I made this wonderful quilt after lots of research. It is made of about 200 four inch squares. Half of these are reproduction yard goods typical of the time of the Civil War. The other half are hand-dyed muslin which has been saddened or toned down a bit to give a more authentic aged look to the muslin. On each muslin square is a fact about Cherokee history during the Civil War Period. Typical larder supplies, numbers of orphans, surnames of warriors in the Mounted Rifles of the Confederacy led by Stand Watie or of the men in a company of the Cherokee Home Guards. Some squares contain popular quilt patterns of that time. Some contain pictures of folks like John Ross who played a decisive role in Cherokee history during the turmoil. This is a quilt top, priced at a modest $100 if purchased for you to quilt. It can be priced at $450 if you would like for me to finish it as a completed quilt with replica backing material (or muslin in any color to accessorize with your room), and batted in period 100% cotton batting which was used as the time, then machine quilted in either a typical fan or feather of this period or custom freehand (which I prefer because it proves the value of the quilt). In your shopping cart, click on Producer Notes to tell me whether you\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'d like it as a top ($100) or finished quilt ($450) and I\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'ll bill you accordingly. Also, my quilts can be purchased on a monthly layaway plan so email ktibbits@lrec.org if you\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'d like me to save back any quilt so you can pay it out in time for the autumn chill.

You will be billed for exact weight (approx. 1 - 2 quilt or tops) I am offering a little one-person quilt which is just the right size for keeping on the sofa so you can curl up and watch the birds. Here you can see it before final completion, being inspected by my Project Assistant In Charge Of Strings, Ms. Gracie Piddlewhiskers. You can purchase this quilt in one of two ways: As a quilt top only for $50. As a finished sofa quilt for $250. Please let me know which you choose by adding a producer note. For finished, it may take more than one week to complete. I will work with you to add a back color, loft depth, and finished size to fit. If you plan to throw it over your sofa, send your sofa dimensions.

#12752 Click to enlarge Sweet Big Ditty, A Special Quilt Sweet Big Ditty, A Special Quilt
Order number of quilt or tops. The idea for this quilt came about while I was still working, and it was my first creative expression as a full-time artist. (OK, and attorney.) Wish this pic truly expressed how energetic and vibrant these colors are. It has breathing room also, so you can put it all in context. To me, it evokes improvisational music as in blues and jazz. It is called Sweet Big Ditty because it is not only conversational but also physically just a really big quilt. You can buy it in either of two ways. For $150 you can buy it just as a top, as is. Its ready for you to border out to the size you want (or rip down), batt, back, quilt, roll and blind stitch. Or, treat yourself and I will take care of all of that finishing too for $450 total, compleat all the way including backing it with the perfect color, solid or print, to match your decor. I will email you to see if you like fluffy thick comforters or traditional flat quilts filled with organic cotton, and the like. Be sure and let me know if you would like just the quilt top or the finished quilt, and the size of your bed.

#12791 Click to enlarge The Outdoor Cherokee Syllables Quilt Top The Outdoor Cherokee Syllables Quilt Top
Order number of tops. Shame on me. In December, we tacked up this cool quilt top outside to use it as a backdrop for some art photographs. Well, we never took it down. This gives you an idea about how colorfast these quilts are... this quilt top weas hand dyed and has been hanging out of doors, exposed to direct sunlight and the weather, for about two months and maybe longer. Anyway, I'm prepared to mark it way down to just $40 which is about the price of the fabric. Its a top only... about sofa size and you could add a border to make it a fun twin quilt after you batt, back, quilt and hem it. I will even be your "What to do next" Hotline Lady for quilting advice if this is your first project. Have fun!

#12755 Click to enlarge Twisting Puzzle, a Quilt By Fluffy Twisting Puzzle, a Quilt By Fluffy
Order number of top or quilts. You will be billed for exact weight (approx. 1 - 2 top or quilts) Twisting Puzzle is the name of this quilt, and you can see the twists in the four panels on top. I started by using a pattern. But as is almost always, quilts have a way of taking their own direction and becoming what they want to be. This one can come to you as a quilt top ($100) so you can try your hand at the finishing. Or it can come to you all finished and compleat ($450) for an amazing wedding gift for someone really special, or for your own treasured heirloom to last a lifetime. In the latter instance please make sure to give a good email address or phone number, so we can plan the details such as backing color (to match your bedroom), loft (thickness), batting content (organic or fluffy stuffy), colors of thread, edging and final finish sewing technique, and the like. Those sound like hard questions, but they are not. And you will learn a little bit about quilting in the process.

#13250 Click to enlarge Funky Photo Creche Funky Photo Creche
Order number of creches. You found it! Here is a happy little funky box with two shelves.It is a perfect fit for 2 inch by 3 inch mini frames, if you want to add pics of two people. Or art cards. When I was making this, I sort of thought about Dia De Los Muertos and Memorial Day all rolled into one, with nice Hindu eyes (of femo clay) on top. Made of feathers and beads, with a couple of gadgety cool steampunk swirls on top. This assemblage is made from recycled bits and pieces, thrift store finds, and oil paints. It has two slots for hanging, but I recommend it for the mantelpiece, window ledge, desktop. Yes! You can put stuff in the little boxes if you want to.... jewelry, tickets, fortune cookie fortunes, dried flowers. Life is short. Do not surround yourself with all things serious.

#13261 Click to enlarge Pensil Organizer Pensil Organizer
Order number of pensil tinss. If you are a Supergirl and need to organize your Pensils then you will not want to avoid this delightful little piece of Pensil Organizing Art. It began life as a recycled tin of wafer cookie logs with chocolate in the middle. But that was just its first incarnation. Because then it was all Fluffed up with a steampunk girl with butterflies and stuff in her hair. She is, I think, a Pensil Fairy who comes to sharpen peoples pensils and make their erasers full again. Some of the things on this Pensil Organizer are so, um, noncompositional that even I, Fluffy, can not tell you what they are. Like blops of modge podge that have been painted like irises and attached to peoples hair.

#8031 Click to enlarge Funky Hand-Dyed Potholder Funky Hand-Dyed Potholder
Order number of potholders. Folks, I have just finished up a big batch of these and they'll often be similar to the quilts and quilt tops that I have listed, but individually pieced and finished. Stock up on these potholders for Hostess Gifts and Potlucks. These potholders are scruffy and fun. They are each different. Let me know if you'd like one with a hanging loop. Some have loops, and some do not. These begin as some combination of natural cotton batting, cotton prints and solids, woven hemp/cotton hand dyed fabrics, hand dyed cottons and thread. The cotton and hemp/cotton dyes are hand-dyed using professional-quality dyes which won't run, fade or color your laundry. Just machine wash them and dry them in the dryer on hot or whatever, like you would any other item. Like all colored laundry, do not use bleach. They just get better and scruffier and more funky than ever over time. You will receive a random choice of color and pattern. But if you have your heart set on one particular one, send me a note about it and I will try to match you up. These are great addition to any made in Oklahoma kitchen gift or food basket.

#10997 Click to enlarge Ultimate Kitchen Towel or Beefy Dinner Nap Ultimate Kitchen Towel or Beefy Dinner Nap
Order number of Napkinss. When you order, tell me which ones you want in the producer notes. These are fine cotton dinner naps or kitchen cloths. (Um, don't feel bad if someone in your family claims one for a do-rag though, because they're great for open-wind head coverings.) In the notes, give me some clues about the colors you'd like and whether you'll be dedicating these for kitchen and dining use. They're Sooo much better than paper towels because you won't be killing trees for an ephemeral use! Durable and sturdy. I've only an eclectic assortment and no matched sets of 4 at this time, but if you order 4 and give me a color scheme in the producer notes and say you want them to match, I'll make you a custom dinner nap set.
