i was one of 365 artists who participated in this year's diary project 2009.
each artist was given one page to design anyway they wish. these diary/journals will be for sale later this year. i'll be sure to post when they are available!
see more artist entries on the flickr group!
i really knew nothing about kanye west until i went to bonnaroo last month and heard everyone talking of the kanye west fiasco. rumors of what happened the night before filled the campground on sunday. everything from "he said he wouldn't go on stage unless phil (lesh) got off stage" to "he wasn't even here until 4am". i almost felt a little sorry for him.
fast forward to the day before yesterday when i picked up a miami new times and saw the above advertisement in the first couple of pages. wtf?! i totally don't get it. i even went as far as going to the website and i still don't get it. maybe that is the entire intention. there's even an infomercial on youtube. maybe it's because i don't have tv and don't get pelted with advertising and pop culture and thus don't have a clue.
can anyone enlighten me?
i spent last weekend with some of miami's craftiest ladies as part of the miami artisans guild's sunday crafternoon. beanblossom was the host and chose the project of the day.
ok. so there was no contest but wow(!)... i came across loranscruggs's etsy store in my evening perusal of the time machine numero dos and quickly fell in love. one of my favorite things is finding completely unexpected shops on etsy. sometimes it seems like everyone is making the same things... but not in this case. (although i haven't actually done a search on penny whistles... i doubt i would find a zillion sellers selling them.) in the enitire store there were only a few things in the store that i could see myself not buying. everything was just so flippin' cute!
I've been busy working on lots of custom work for i love yoga.
today i did some shirts for the duncan wong collection.
i'm having fun experimenting with different ways of sewing patches on t-shirts and doing decorative top stitching.
i love yoga is having a workshop/celebration at the omega institute in rhinebeck, ny this weekend!
we like soup.
This is one of the new wrap tops i made this afternoon!
i'm really happy with the rose floral fabric i added to the front. i also ran many rows of stitches lengthwise on it to give it a quilted effect (see close up below).
i haven't yet decide if this one is finished yet. i feel the need to 'jazz it up' a bit with something but i'm not sure what that something is yet.
i was also able to upload some more new superpower wrist cuffs to my etsy store today.
yeah!
go me!

Oh my goodness!
It's like a miracle has happened. New items appeared in my etsy store as if by magic, overnight. I love it when the etsy fairies come down, photograph some groovy goods and then post them in my shop. It's a wondrous day the whole world round!
These are some lovely hand stitched wrist cuffs I made during the tepid late winter months and are finally made available to you! So go on.... don't be shy.
Maybe I'll sprinkle more magic dust around my crafting space and see what happens tonight!
Get yours @ ragamufyn.etsy.com
*note to self*
even more amazing, it seems, is that i wrote most of this post using correct capitalization. what is up around here?
hooray for threadheads inspiration!
i was sewing up a storm having the most fabulous time as people would come by to see what was happening. as one wonderous wrap creation came off the machine, someone would try it on and parade it around the party. it was fabulous and i made sales right then and there.
