I am giving away one of my original handcut pieces over at the {newnew} blog. Head over and check it out. They have a lot of great things going on over there as well. And if you are in NEW YORK on December 6th, you should check them out at their Handmade Cavalcade at the Knitting Factory. Pick up some gift for that special person on your list from some of the best artists and crafters in the NYC area.
Lately I have been working on a lot of repeating patterns at work and for fun. It made me start thinking about textile and wallpaper design and other ways to display the finished work. So I did a bit of research and found a 2 day class right down the street from me at 3rdward. Yesterday was the last class and although I felt teh pace of the class was slow I did learn a few new tricks. The poppy design is probably my favorite creation so far but I am really excited to create more patterns. Maybe I will turn this into a print.
