Cindy got it! What you can do with a Nantucket Bagg.

Cindy couldn't wait to get her hands on a Nantucket Bagg.

 

Cindy was at a recent meeting of the Maine Entrepreneurs group founded by Kirk Hill in 2008.  The group meets monthly for networking and lively discussion regarding topics of interest for established and emerging entrepreneurs.  This week, Jo shared The Nantucket Bagg as part of the discussion.  What a wonderful, stimulating conversation full of marketing and product ideas.  Cindy – a crafter and artist – was putting her tools in the bagg before she had her hands on it.  The bag is a utility tote that fills many needs, she saw many uses beyond the artist and crafter. As a Career Center Consultant she saw the viability of using the bagg to organize the materials for your job search, briefcase or travel tote.  I had a demo bagg with me, she happily left the meeting with it in her hands with ideas of sharing it with many people.

 

If you are inspired with ideas, get in touch – I’d love to talk with you.

Poking around the Portland waterfront.

We are having a wonderful Maine fall, unseasonably warm but very enjoyable.  This weekend friends came from Northern Maine, fifteen miles from the Canadian border for wandering around the waterfront and ballroom dancing.  Sandy and I decided to poke into some of the side streets and we had been talking about our Nantucket Baggs and how they can be used as a purse or around town bagg.  Needless to say, we decided to photo share the new colors of our Iddy  baggs. 

    

Maine has wonderful light and even though it was early afternoon, we walked in a golden glow looking at fishing shacks and piers lined with lobster traps.  I’m a crocheter and my pattern design is based more on color than stitch variation.  Captivated by the overall images, I did not see the color repetition in the baggs and the landscape until I was reviewing the photos. It just all fit together from the beginning.

Portland has an incredible diversity of dining and as we move toward Commercial Street, the waterfront thoroughfare, we nose around a local bistro.  The Iddy is perfect for carrying your camera, cell phone and wallet without having to hold onto your purse.  Lighten you load for a stroll around the waterfront.  The bagg Sandy is wearing is a promotional bagg for Ball and Skein Yarn Company  in Cambria, CA.  The owners of the Ball and Skein, Oz and Chris, fellin in love with Cambria where the weather is like this weekend year round – found a yarn shop and are now dedicated to yarn and an ocean on the opposite side of the US.  If you get to their shop, tell them the folks from Nantucket Bagg said to say hello and relish in the delightful Oz and Chris and  their wonderful yarns.
