It’s time to work up some new farm gear! February may be the shortest month in numbers, but, emotionally, I find it desperately long. SO. Time for a new project. My TXN sweatshirt is a little worse-for-wear and me-thinks it might be the perfect time for a refresher.
This was our first go in 2009… some chocolate brown hoodies with 2 different TexasNorth logo options that Mister Alan and his purple goatee drew up for me. Alan is still the only man besides Curt and my father to ever carry my luggage for me- a true gentleman with the voice of an angel and, obviously, a wicked pen. I love seeing these hoodies around town, and friends are so kind to wear them when they come visit.
In 2010, I grabbed the logo and added a bit of word art around it to justify some spring ringer tees. Ry wore hers to school last week. I’m a big fan. I’m a big fan of having a little fun with a little farm that really only markets to friends 🙂 We look fancy, though, don’t we? I’ll say.
I’ve been dreaming of a sheriff’s badge since the beginning, and it was time to finally get Alan back to the drawing board. Nothing crazy… just a simple, vintage-y, circular logo that could rock a ball cap or baseball tee without getting obnoxious. So, we grabbed the original shadow of Ellie’s head and 2 of the original fonts. Now, it’s up to you:
Which one suits your fancy more?
option 1
option 2
Voting will be open for a week, which will give me time to pick out blanks to print on. You certainly don’t have to buy one to vote… just tell me what you think! Next week I’ll let you know what prices I’ve found.
This might be the perfect order for me to finally make varsity.

Man, that was tough…I loved them both almost equally.

Me, too. That’s why I brought it to a vote. We can’t lose either way.

My brown hoodie just came out of the wash, and I was thinking about how much I love Texas North and those who inhabit it. Cant wait to check out the new gear!
