So the fabric came in! It turned out so great, too. It's a really nice cotton fabric and the printing is very soft and doesn't feel stiff at all. I'd definitely recommend using spoonflower.com. My friend Amanda is going to use it to make labels for her children's clothing she makes. We're going to put her logo on the fabric design and voila, labels!

I will probably make a little knitting project bag out of this fabric. It is fairly thin so I'll line it with a different print. I also though of making a pillow for "your face." :) xoxo

Happy 1 Year Smoochiversary to us!

Yay! The Pinkster and I have been together for one year this weekend :) I'm calling it our Smoochiversary. Hahaha...

To celebrate the lovely occasion we're heading to nearby Asheville, NC for a nice little weekend away. Pinky's been before, but just briefly and I've never had the pleasure of visiting this lovely artsy town. I'm so excited! I think the leaves should be just gorgeous out in the Blue Ridge Mountains right now. We're of course going to tour the Biltmore tomorrow and definitely stop in a yarn shop or two. I'm looking forward to wandering around and exploring the town. I love going to new places with Pinky...we travel well together and are super easy going about our trips. Well, except for the fact that I always have to plan our accommodations WAY in advance :)

I will post pictures when we get back. I hope you all have a lovely weekend too, whatever your plans are. Be sure to enjoy the lovely fall colors and cool weather! xoxo

Create your own fabric!

This is an awesome site...you can upload a design and they will print it on fabric for you! I just ordered a fat quarter size piece with my little Your Face! birdie here. I think I'll make a knitting project bag out of it. The possibilities of what to make with this are super exciting! Don't ya think??
