our tiny little sweatshop in pittsburgh...

the whir of the sewing machine goes nicely with hockey games. all this sewing has taught me that i need a lesson..bad. but at least I can thread that darn bobbin now. this next week will be somewhat full, as i need to print business cards and a few more odds and ends for the upcoming I Made It Market...i need to keep telling myself that it's ok if I have a small inventory...



It's all too much for Sammie, our neighbors poodle, who we were looking after, over the weekend.

I totally copied the ladies at BBB and got the custom stamp maker at Staples, for my tags. Already a new favorite toy of mine.

where was the towel fabric reclaimed from?

mornin apes! i got this big bolt of fabric from construction junction (reused building supply store)..it's sort of on the thick side (upholstery material?)...which made it a bummer to hem...and i'm not exactly sure how well it will work as a dishtowel (hence the cheaper price); but i LOVE the blue.

I think those look so great! I can't wait to see one in person. I would totally be drawn to them. Great job!
