It’s been a whirl around here lately, and I have so much to tell you, but to hold you over, just thought I’d share. I’ve started receiving the most wonderful ornaments for the ornament swap, and the first one’s from Kim Westad, a ceramist from the Bronx (YO!). The ornament is just precious, and you’ll get pics of that later, but I am SO IN LOVE with her work. I especially love her Whirl collection. And be sure to check her Etsy. If only I could whirl in the peaceful, organic way that these pieces do…
I have a little fashion illustration love. It’s something I’ve been doing most of my life, for me, doodles on napkins, in my sketchbooks, on notes during meetings (shhh, don’t tell).
Remember this post where I mentioned Lottie Frank? Lottie Frank is the beautiful work of illustrator/designer Lucy Claydon. Well, I don’t know if you’ve been watching, but there’s new work in her Etsy shop.
There’s more treasure to explore in her Flickr too.
This ruffled neck warmer from ForMathilda
Neck Warmer from Yokoo. Be sure to check Yokoo’s Flickr stream/blog.
Young Elizabeth Collar by Ellita
I love the versatility of this Chunky Neckwarmer/Cowl from Knittles
Ice and Roses from NandaHandcrafted
I love this yellow one with the barrel button. Pashmina Cowl. Frilly Yellow. Ruffled Neck Warmer.
Clearly – I have hats on the brain.
I love the cloche shape and this hat totally makes me want to learn to crochet. :: camelliadesigns
Great graphic hat :: KatEyez
Cute stripes reverse to a yummy orange :: littleguystogs
Vintage dots are so sweet :: twinklythings
Lovely shape, wonderful spring/summer colors :: Sookie etc.
I know it’s not very spring like – but up here in New England, this could very well be a spring hat! :: luvlugs
and…last but not least…punk rock :: Infantile
and you can get one too!
Rob is printing up a series of Sporozoan Limited Edition Ts and you can get yours in his Etsy shop.
This is the first in the series. Only a limited number available. He’s already begun work on the next…
I have been clicking around on Etsy a bit more these days, looking for presents and checking out some wonderful art:
Bead Woven Leopard Animal Print Bracelet by MistyRidgeBeads.
Drunk Circus Dress by desirapesta. I love this dress. Click over to Etsy and check out all the views. I know the perfect person for this dress (other than moi.) You must also check out the other items listed, like this Belted Katamari, The Oh Blouse.
Limited Edition Sopu Wrap Skirt by finnbiskit. More wonderful pieces in this shop.
I am so in love with this Pleated Top by treehouse28. I also love the ruffled skirt.
Makes me want to fill up my sketch book, shop and make more clothes. Good stuff out there. Buy handmade.
I love it when creative people publish their own patterns. I think before you shop at Vogue, Butterick, McCalls, Simplicity, etc – look for something cool from an independent creative.
I am thrilled about Yvestown’s pattern for the Ikea Skruvsta Chair that she recovered. Makes me want to run to IKEA, again, and buy the chair, just so I can try out the pattern and make my own cover.
I’ve been making a few of Betsy Ross‘ One-For-All Bags. I love this pattern. Super versatile.
I’m thinking I’m going to make the Charmed Dress, in (plum?) velvet, for the holidays. Love the shape.
This Hustle Bustle Skirt is cute. The pattern is available on Etsy, as well as finished garments all by Miss Twiss.
And who needs a skirt pattern when you have a pillowcase and this tutorial?
I love this Apron Halter Dress pattern from Melimade.
I think I might just have to make one of these Pockets Full of Cash Aprons from LuluKnits.
Muse has some cute patterns. I like this reversible apron, it’s such a pretty shape.
I’m always on the lookout for patterns like these – have you found any? I’d love to add them to my list.
