Here’s the new image for this years NL Folk Festival t-shirt.  The original art is a hand coloured lino-cut

 created by Caroline Clarke.  We’ll be printing these on a variety of  t-shirt styles. And - if any one would like to

pre-order a sweatshirt we can accommodate requests up until August 1st.  Hooded pullover sweatshirts

will be $35.00 tax included.  E-mail us your request.  See you at the festival - August 6 to 8 in Bannerman

Park in St. John’s.

One further note about our Crazy $5 T-Shirt Sale…

We sold all of the rest of the “While Supplies Last” t-shirts we had posted in our on-line store. That category

is now empty. We’ll probably add a few more to this category at the end of the summer.  Stay tuned.

Well - the crazy $5 t-shirt sale took place last Saturday… and it was a bit crazy. A few people couldn’t grasp the concept of first t-shirt free and every other t-shirt $5.00 but for the most part people could accept it.  A lot of  friends stopped by - good to see you all - and a lot of new people too - welcome to you too.  In the end a lot of t-shirts were distributed to new homes and we cleared out a lot of somewhat moribund inventory. All good stuff though. I think we’ll do it again sometime.

By the way…if you think it’s odd that we’re only talking about the crazy $5 t-shirt sale after the fact let me assure you there are no ulterior motives here.  We weren’t trying to exclude people by keeping it a secret ( We  had Patrick do a flyer run downtown).  We were simply without web tech assistance for a while and we didn’t know how to update our website.  Thanks to Mark Bennett the secrets have now been revealed to me and I can at least type messages here.

So stay tuned - we’ve got the Lantern Festival this weekend (shirts by us) and the Folk Festival starting  August 6th (also shirts by us). We’ll have a booth at the Folk Fest and will be featuring a few new shirt designs. Perhaps I’ll post them here in the next day or two if I can figure out how to paste (post?) a graphic onto this page.
