Pattern & Porcelain

Prop stylist Carla Gonzalez-Hart and photographer Christopher Testani used a couple of my fabrics in their editorial pairing dinnerware with work by contemporary textile designers. So nice!

tupper lake

We drove 5 hours north last weekend to the Adirondacks for a wedding in Tupper Lake. Lake swimming, wakeboarding, skipping rocks. I hung out on a speedboat with a big yellow dog, it was perfect.

I'll start with Angella's beautiful apartment in Golden Hill, San Diego because it's as good a place as any to start and I was so happy to see her and Lyra, and Lyra slept at my feet and I was so happy.
We went up to L.A. shortly after, here are a couple from my booth.
Driving up the coast to San Francisco the next week: a stop to look at elephant seals, various roadside views including the bluest blues in Big Sur.
I stayed at Delaney's house in West Oakland. I liked it, it had Bushwick vibes. Junior is a good cat. We did stick n pokes. We had fun.
I met up with Julia Kostreva for a day and we went around Golden Gate Park in San Francisco. These are from the Flower Conservatory and a butterfly exhibit there.
Last night in Oakland drinks with Kaye. We took two photos and we both don't look awful in this one.
And a couple from the drive back. You're all right, California.

new stuff!

Here's a peek at some new products and patterns that are coming to the shop next month. It was so much fun taking these photos with some great girls recently. And really could Gillian and Gaby be more beautiful?! Ugh.

Everything shown above (and a zillion other things) will be with me at Renegade Craft Fair this month (details a few posts down or here if you missed it).

Models: Gillian Herring + Gaby Cetrulo // Makeup: Allison Perlstein // Photographer: Amber Byrne Mahoney

Mom's house

A couple test photos Dylan took at my Mom's house that I like for some reason. We're (finally) going home tomorrow, yay.

New Products + Kate Edwards

Here's the first wave of some new photos and new products, all thanks to the amazing Kate Edwards. You might recognize her work, and our gorgeous friend & model Gabby, from Young Frankk jewelry -- Kate shot the latest lookbook, and Gabby's modeled for it all. I only have these handful of things up now because I'm about to close my shop while I'm in California for 3 weeks, but much more will be up in early January, including lots of new dresses.

Gina & Leah Quilt

I posted these patterns a while ago in anticipation of this project I did with my neighbor/friend Gina. At the time I said we weren't going to make a quilt, but then when it came down to it that's what we ended up making. She did most of the making, really, because in real life I'm a reluctant seamstress and she's the expert quilter here. I did the patterns though!

Dylan took these beautiful photos and I'm so happy with how everything came out. We're planning on making some patchwork pillows together, likely this summer, so stay tuned if you're looking for something that's not quite as big an investment. The quilt's for sale in my Etsy here, along with some extra photos.
