What's Your Subversive Sign?

One of my favorite momisms—she said this to me when I said something TOO funny, no matter the season, emphasizing each word like YOU. ARE. OUT. OF. YOUR. GOURD! I MUST be out of my gourd, right?


A Fall Tradition!

The classic KIT, the PDF pattern, the pillow kit and the sequel! If you’re not familiar with the story, read it at McSweeney’s for a good laugh: You’re either ready to reap this freaky-assed harvest or you’re not.


What’s Your Subversive Sign?

A very old friend of ours, Melia, helps out sometimes with our wholesale orders (we call her the VP of Wholesale) who really knows her astrology and she matched these kits to signs for me. I think she’s RIGHT on the money, don’t you? p.s. I tagged all of these kits with ASTROLOGY so they’re easier to find, and most if not most are also available as PDFs. Talk about an insightful gift—it’d either be a big hit or the end of your friendship, depending on their sign!

OH, brainstorm incoming—any of these designs would be WHAMMO on our pillowcases and tote bags! We just upped your gift-giving game, BOOM!


Limited Quantities

Sometimes I buy something I want to carry, only to find out there are no more available. I’m working to get more of these but, in the meantime, here are a few things I love that are in very short supply. If they’re out of stock by the time you get there, sign up on the product page to receive a reminder when we get more!:

Dyed Aida Halloween fabric with Ghosts fabric

Polka Dot Scissors

Gingham-Edged Bookmarks in Black and Red.

Tomorrow is the first day of FALL! Time for gourds (of course) gourd season, pumpkin spice, Halloween…and for me to get my holiday act together. Also, I’m trying to get some Halloween matchbox kits together (talk about a treat!) As always, feel free to reply or comment below if there’s something you’d like to see.

I hope you have a crisp and refreshing weekend full of relaxing stitching. And don’t forget to raise a little hell, too. ;)

xoxo
