Happy Friday! Happy weekend! Happy almost-Mother's-Day! (And also happy not that, if you don't have one or yours inspires complicated feelings. I suggest baking something for yourself or buying a fancy pastry. I'm making a cardamom-and-rosewater layer cake with pistachio buttercream!) Here comes a bevy of bright, beautiful prints and panels: full of colorful, textural hand-drawn patterns, it's Serious Whimsey by P Carter Carpin!

And I'll beg forgiveness again, see if I don't. Sorry for two emails in a row! Our marketing system was on the fritz again. Otherwise I would've said: MICHELE IS BACK FROM CHICAGO with loads of fun stuff, such as the bittiest wee box de crayons de marquage you've ever seen, hon hon. (Chalk pencils. I mean chalk pencils.)![]() I am crazed, mad, absolutely possessed by Tiny Versions of Larger Things, and so they enchant. Soooo bitty: 10.3cm is European for 4 inches tall! |
Meanwhile there are as ever things occurring at Treadle. Check our calendar for classes and events! First, though, I encourage you to sign up for another round of SEW GOOD GOODS, our monthly charity sewing event. We're making the Anti-Ouch Pouch, a wedge-shaped pillow worn under the arm after breast surgery or radiation treatment.
