Thanks for the inspiration

A peek into my workshop (dining room/living room/kitchen) lately...



Working on more special occasion, birthday crowns.  I'm hoping to participate in a Seattle show in March selling my crowns and onesies (new designs on the way).  The brown crown shown above is my take on a Forest Fairy crown (no pink, no purple, no Disney princesses to be seen).




I've started drawing.  I found a fun little Valentine's Day Contest that I want to submit something to (just for the heck of it). 

I've also got some ideas for more hand drawn onesie designs.  Scuba diving helmet.  Building block creation.  Bird house.  I've got an American Apparel order of brown onesies on their way as we speak.  Can't wait to get them and start printing!    


Tried to initiate some new pattern ideas but they just haven't taken.  I'm going to stick with the reversible pinafores for now and just keep playing with those.  Maybe adding a pocket?  Some trim?  A screen print?
