I’ve had these pics saved for a while, wondering on what premise I could post them on my blog, but now I have reason! My husband’s a champion, well deserving of a blog post, as the story below will illustrate: I arrived at work this morning, sans phone (again!). I quickly called home to see …

Much Better Badges, but still…
Sheesh, what poofy market photos in yesterday’s post. Those badges were totally not done justice to. I mean, justice to badges was totally not done, was it? So here’s a closeup pic, showing some of mine and some of Jesse’s too. Anybody got any ideas why my photos are so grainy and yuk? They always …

Cushions galore
I used to make so many cushions, but since my screenprint ink went runny, I’ve lost the passion.

Aw cute!
This is another post I’ve been meaning to do for a while – the baby t-shirts I made for the last HandMade Now! stall at the Neighbour Goods market. Aren’t they sweet? They didn’t sell very well though, so we’ll see what happens at the market this weekend. I’ve just got a whole bunch of …
