Wanna see what I've been up to? (not quite commercial post)
Joanie Madden commissioned me to make one of my Sassafrass Whistle Rolls for her...
(see my avatar for the end shot)
This one shows the paper mock-ups of her Burkes (Thanks Mike, for helping me with the measurements)
Here it is fully open, with the business card pocket, markers pocket and the "Specially Made For" label
Half rolled
Fully Rolled and Ready to Go!
Her response upon opening it after delivery was quite satisfying.

- Tell us something.: Music has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Part of what I love about celtic/folk style music is the sound of a handful of handmade instruments that remind me of simpler times.

Looks great, Annie. THe other Weekender made me one but the thing I always wonder about is, what about other brands and makes of whistles that don't fit symmetrically. That happened on mine.
.
Is Joanie only using Burkes on tours now? That seems pretty newsworthy!

How do you prepare for the end of the world?

I wouldn't make that claim... she uses many. I just made this case for that set.The Weekenders wrote:Looks great, Annie. THe other Weekender made me one but the thing I always wonder about is, what about other brands and makes of whistles that don't fit symmetrically. That happened on mine.

I can fit specific whistles or make a generic that handles most. The generics have to be a bit looser though, as it's the circumference that tends to vary, while the length stays fairly consistent.The Weekenders wrote:Looks great, Annie.

I make a "Dozen D's" and a "Dozen Hi-Lo" that are more generic. When I get the website up and running, I'll announce it.
