Evolution of the back drop

Yes, it has been a long time since anyone has updated this blog.
We are going to try harder from now on - we promise!


Heather has bribed me with a particularly striking Ginkgo bag (pictures to come later) to keep this blog up-to-date and maybe even get her Etsy shop up and running.

New photos of Heather's latest designs will be posted over the next week. So stay tuned!

In the meantime, I thought I'd show a little history of the 'Textiles by Heather' backdrops. Heather just created a new backdrop for her booth after selling the last one.
Above is the first banner which sometimes appeared above her booth or behind her display depending on where she was placed in the market.
Curiously, no one ever offered to buy this one from her.

This double panel is the one she sold/traded for.
Even un-ironed they were adorable.

Finally we have the current display.
Clean and striking, I think it's the perfect way to set-off her pieces.

And it kind of has a super hero quality to it - as if Heather uses it as a cape when she isn't at the market.

By the way, Heather has been known to create custom commissioned capes in the past. So far she has only made them for children - but I'm sure she could make an adult size if asked nicely.

It's possible Heather is beginning to regret asking me to update her blog.
