Blake and I went to the Scottish Fair this Saturday and I was able to buy a couple of lovely handmade items. The mug is a pottery piece from Patty's Pottery. I've visited with Patty and her husband at several fairs and this was the first time I was able to get a piece for my own collection. She usually works monochromatic, so I was really excited to see this multi colored piece with the dot details.
The bear was from a vendor called "Frugal Corner" and they make kilts. When I asked if they made these from the kilt fabric remnants, they said that they send the fabric "down to Texas" to have them made. I'm not sure what that means exactly, but I could tell they were handmade and Texas is still US made so it counts to me!
I love being able to find handmade goodies when I go to fairs like this.
