cooking with style



just spotted this in the archives of my favorite cooking blog (I don't know when this woman sleeps!) I was tickled to see her sporting an adorable Carnival Bloom apron.

love it when I spot our prints popping up in fun ways. Here's the print; First Numbers from the First Sight Collection.
As seen in Apartment Therapy's nursery section ohdeedoh. Check out their contest this month (I first read about it on jcaroline's blog)
and what a fun excuse to use my favorite kid chairs from Ikea!

our Organic Herringbone is sooooo soft it's
the perfect wrap!

Roxa Smith Robots

Photobucket
While in Brooklyn to check out the Renegade Craft Fair last summer I stopped to browse at the wonderful children's store; Mini Jake. Roxa Smith's paintings were on display and I was smitten! Soooo smitten that many months later we're able to offer them on cotton and flannel. In case you're wondering, the robots are approx. 4 - 5" tall.

Corduroy Carnival Bloom


Carnival Bloom has been a VERY popular print, so we're very happy to be able to offer it on 21 wale corduroy! I won't bore you with all the technical obstacles but most printers don't advise doing prints this detailed and on a dark ground on corduroy because they can't guarantee full color coverage because of the surface texture..... well......they did it!!!!

Christmas Fairies Tree Skirt

Photobucket
Who doesn't love Christmas projects?
and who doesn't find themselves around mid December wishing they had the time to make all the projects we have in our well intentioned heads and hearts?!

Joanna at Stardust Shoes has come up with a great idea: a 2009 Advent Calender Sew Along. I think it's such a great idea, I'm applying it to all things Christmas (I love wrapping presents, decorating, yadda, yadda, yadda).

Sooo, with that in mind I'm going to slip in this Christmas tree skirt pattern by Marinda Stewart made from our just released; Christmas Fairies.
and just for a goof it can always fill in for last minute party wear!
