The year of the tiger

Isn't this great? A backpack from Israel! With matching pouch.
Tigers are a favourite of mine because I was born in the hour of the tiger, between 3 and 5 in the morning. I had the tiger in my corporate identity when I was a full-time graphic designer.

I'm so happy to have this gem of a rucksack. It was made by Yael. Her blog is a collection of wonderful craft + wonderful visual journeys to fascinating places of ancient heritage in Israel and other places. And she is a caring and wise friend.
The year of the tiger ends on Feb 2nd 2011. But my pleasure about the backpack will not. When I will have worn it to pieces, I'll cut it up and make a tiger quilt out of it -- haha, kidding! It is so well done that I won't be able to wear it up.
