project updates to look forward to..

so there are some loose projects i have been trying to finish that i want to show you when i'm done with- there will be pictures!

so look forward to:
-my first handmade leather bag (putting finishing touches onto on friday)
- update on the poncho project (not so hot)
- next batch of screenprinted items (a printing party is in the planning stage)
- my official debut of letterpress items (it's coming- initial paper choosing is this week)
and much more i'm sure...

i would love to hear about some of your projects you've been working on!

right now i am addicted to...

so i have just found a new love in the accesories world- brooches! i used to find them a little outdated and kitchsy- but now they are getting great again. i love the screenprinted and sewn ones (anyone want to attempt some at our next screenprinting party?)- and i just found etsy seller seealso- and they have the best brooches (shown above). i am seriously in love with the two headed girl one (middle). you can find all these on their etsy shop here.

i can't get away from lotta

so today i got my new issue of Craft: magazine in the mail (i was so excited) and guess who they featured? Lotta Jansdotter of course! I keep finding her featured in publications and i can't stop obsessing over her (and she's so darn cute!). i got hooked on the ideas of screenprinting and sewing because of her. thanks lotta! keep it up- i love it all.

p.s. if you guys don't get craft magazine yet, get it! it's totally worth it- not only for inspirations, but for patterns, etc. for projects. share a subscription of it with your friends. mine is avaliable for loan to my art group- anyone up for it?
