Proud Mary

Are you familiar with this little shop? It's just a couple girls in their mid-twenties doing something pretty amazing. I signed up for the Proud Mary e-newsletters back when their stock consisted of a few pillows and fabric by the bolt. Now, they have launched a new site, a new look and new merchandise.

yummy :)







*and feel free to buy me the Diamante Tote Bag...

Typography Class Finished

I had the wonderful opportunity this spring to teach a typography class at Stephens College. The entire experience was so enjoyable I may have a found a future career...but not for a while :)

The final project for the class was to design a gig poster. Here are few I thought turned out exceptionally well.

Spreads

The kind that go in magazines. These actually ran two consecutive months in Marketplace magazine. I'm working on a health and beauty section right now that will hit the streets in the next couple weeks.

Forgetfulness

I was recently asked to recite my favorite poem. hmmm...my first favorite poet (who inevitably will have to be my last favorite poet - due to the poeticalness of such unwavering certainty) was Billy Collins. Introduced to him my sophomore year of college by my poetical pal Perrin, I have taken great comfort in one of his poems in particular. It reminds me of the universal fate of forgetfulness - so when I cannot recall even a single stanza of this beloved poem, I smile, knowing I probably never will. ;)

Sew Sisters Logo

A logo I designed for a wonderful new group of sewers. Mainly quilters, but all thread-lovers are welcome. Along with their logo design I created a badge/patch - which also doubles as a lovely pattern for all printed materials.

Soon to be a-pickling

I should wait until the final unveiling of what this little pickle will be...but I can't help it. Everytime I look at it and think about a little pickle dance'n across my desk I giggle...




put this song on and do it right now...hehe. it's kinda funny...

Sweet Home Final Prints

This postcard design was made to showcase the little green house of a first-time home owner.
