popping in quickly to let you know that taryn of mymy.us had added some sewing stars goodies to her webshop! it is her website's second b-day, and she has all sorts of amazingly awesome items from indie crafters up for sale, so check it out!!
okay...end of shout out/self promo...you may resume your day.
meet robin. she is a burgandy/purple-ish panda, who as you can see just
loves birdies. her dress was my first attempt at making a collar &
sleeves. i am pretty happy with how it turned out! she of course has a
little stuffed doll of a birdie, instead of a tiny bear. it seemed more
fitting.
in other news, i have been creating some new patterns working out the kinks in my designs. i hope i can post some sucessful results later this week.
i want to thank everyone who stopped in the webshop last week to get some fun items. i hope i can start updating on a more frequent basis in the future.
i will leave you with a few more pics of this silly little panda:
i think i have a hand cramp from all the stuff i just uploaded into the shop! please take a moment to stop by and take a look around. i added a bunch of kitties along with all the new items i have been posting here like the raccoonn tees, queen kitty mirrors, and mr. bunny notepads, etc...
in other unrelated news, i have been working on some new patterns for stuffies. i hope i can share some results next week.
have a great weekend everyone! ♥ teresa
this is a new t-shirt i will be adding to the shop on friday. it is a light blue tee, with the raccoon design printed in brown ink. i got american apparel classic girl tees this time too.
are there any other images from my artwork that you would like to see on a tee? should i bring back tired mr. bunny in girly tee form? should i do some smaller kids clothing? what do you all think?
whew! just like that, it is all over. it was really awesome, and thanks to everyone who came out to brooklyn!
i have uploaded pics to my flickr account, but alas, my memory card for my camera is very small...so there are far less pictures than i would have liked.
here is what i bought for myself at the show:
i got to meet lots of crafty celebs in person, and awesome bloggers like michael pinto a.k.a. the williamsburg-nerd, and the adorable joi, a.k.a. stereoette.
i also want to publicly thank erica's sis & brother-in-law for letting us invade their home for 4 days, and taking us to such a yummy dinner on sunday to celebrate.
my next craft show will be Artbeat in Sommerville just north of Boston, on july 15th. after that i will be heading to the other coast for a little felt club action august 12th.
this friday, the webshop will be stocked to ceiling with new merchandise, and re-stocked items like pouches. so 1pm est (10am pst) run over to the shop to see. plus, there will be sewing stars goodies loaded over at mymy.us when they re-open june 24th.
over and out for now...
well, it is finally almost time! renegade craft show in brooklyn, ny is this weekend! i will be sharing my booth with erica of coffee-drinker.com & kristin of scrapsofpaper.net. we leave tomorrow!
i made up these goodie bags of some assorted sewing stars stuff, and they will go to anyone who mentions they read my blog when they visit the booth this weekend. of course, only while supplies last...
also, after the show i will be doing a shop update will a bunch of the new merchandise. so even if you can't make renegade, you will still get a chance to buy up some of the new stuff like notepads, birthday cards, queen kitty mirrors, etc.
have a great weekend everyone!
the notepads arrived yesterday! i love them...i already packaged up the ones i am taking to rengade last night. i also chopped my hair yesterday. it is much better than before. super short, and that means i don't have to get it cut for another year...
preparations continue...i hope anyone in the new york area will be coming to williamburg for renegade! it is gonna be awesome!
saturday night...what i am doing? dinner? dancing? out with friends for a drink? nah, i am a one-woman sewing stars factory! i also have several kitties sewn, but waiting to be stuffed...in fact, i should get back to that! later!
more new stuff came yesterday! the lovely kyle of buttonarcade.com made me these wonderful new pocket mirrors featuring the 'queen kitty'. i will have these at renegade, and i am settting some aside for the webshop too. once renegade is over, there will be a shop update with all the new stuff.
this morning when i checked my e-mail, my aunt had e-mailed me some pictures, one of which was of me around age 2. (click to see it bigger, and read my notes...)being born in the late seventies in california made for interesting childhood memories of shag rugs, brick looking linolium, 'pioneer' looking light fixtures, and lots of wood paneling. we even had a driftwood lamp, with a square lampshade on it...
well, there should be more new stuff to show off in another couple of days...stay tuned! same bat-time, same bat-channel!
when i came home yesterday the first in a series of packages i have been waiting for arrived! this package had all the postcards i ordered, plus more business cards...i couldn't decide which image of mr. bunny i wanted to make into postcards, so i , uh, did both the ice cream one and the ladybug one...and last night i also made ice cream button sets along with woodland animal button sets and cards too. i was one busy little bee last night.
all these new designed buttons & cards will be at my booth at renegade, which is just a couple weeks away! yikes!! more fun things will be arriving as the week goes...i will be sure to post pics!
