Well, here they are: Zelda, Link, Maggie, and the little known Fishman. We were so excited when our friends at Jolby asked us to participate in the Tri-force tribute show. But which characters to choose? There are so many awesome possibilities, especially when this game spans so much time, and has countless of interesting creatures. Not to mention that the array of talented people contributing to this show, was in truth a bit intimidating! Thank goodness for the Zelda Wiki site.

We’ve recently come off of one of the most exhilarating and intense projects we have worked on in our short careers. Two months ago we received a phone call from Jeffrey Zeldman, web designer, author and industry icon. He was being inducted (the first inductee) into the brand new Interactive Hall of Fame that is being established in Austin, TX.

We’ve been invited to take part in the TriForce Tribute gallery show in Portland during March. In case you’ve been lost for the last 20 years, the TriForce show will focus on everything Zelda, the amazingly fantastic video game that has rawked our lives for decades. The show is being put on by our wonderful friends at Jolby and Always With Honor, and promises to be an amazing event.

We’ll be doing four plush pieces for the show (two main characters and two sub-characters), but we’re keeping the specifics under wraps for now. We’ll be trying out some new techniques and some new detail effects on these, though, so they should be uber-awesome.

Here are a few specifics for the show:

The Triforce Tribute is an epic multi-medium show celebrating all things Zelda. Curated by Jolby & Always With Honor. The show will run March 9th to April 21st 2012 at Land Gallery in Portland, OR.

We’ve just confirmed our holiday schedule, and apparently we will most likely be dead by the end of December. We’ve just had our retail shops place re-orders for the holidays, which means we have a ton of sewing to get done… Right… NOW!

Hooray for Right NOW!

We’ve also booked almost all our shows for the holiday season. In November we will be doing a first-time appearance at the Abernathy Art Show, while in December we are once again attending our much loved local crafter get together, Crafty Wonderland, AND we will be making a first-time appearance at Urban Craft Uprising in Seattle. The exact dates and times will pop up on our shows page once we get all that information together.

What it all amounts to is, “Crap, we’re busy!”

Hooray for, “Crap, we’re busy!”
