Labels, Names & Logos


I chose the name blackcap to represent my bags after the Eurasian blackcap bird. Blackcap rolls pretty well with bags too! Recently my cousin gave me the idea to put a hat on the c in blackcap, so we played around with it a bit and settled on this simplistic label. I'm sure with time this may change and take new shape as I come across new ideas.






Poor Dog Farm




I came across an Artist named Sam Georgieff of Poor Dog Farm from Pennsylvania. Sam does watercolor painting of beautiful landscapes and animals wearing hats and other accessories. What perfect then a bird wearing a black hat! His painting are great. I look forward to enjoying them on the walls of my sewing room. Thanks Sam!


Sam paints under the Etsy shop, Poor Dog Farm named after his Southern Pennsylvania farm and studio.
