Our Name
Skye Blue Press draws its name from the inspiration found in Tasche’s beloved Sheltie, Skye Blue. While our cherished Skye girl has journeyed across the Rainbow Bridge, her memory lives on in our commitment to providing outstanding service for your projects.
In case you’re curious, the little girl in the picture is Tasche’s daughter, who has since grown up and married! It's a reminder of how time flies, and we're here to make sure your projects flourish just as beautifully.
