new skirt kits in my etsy shop!
Okay, it only took me months, but I've posted skirt kits in three new fabrics (red and pink stripes, brown and tan stripes, and a black, red, and tan floral print) in my etsy shop--yay! I'll be adding some more fabric options soon, along with new vintage lace and trim variations, too. Here's a new photo of everything you get in the kit (black fabric version shown), including the new ball-point sewing machine needle and pink page of skirt sewing tips.
I'm also super excited about my DIY articles in the new Venus! I just got my copy of the summer issue (Amy Sedaris graces the cover) and I love it, start to finish--it covers everything from guerilla drive-in movies to an interview with Joan Jett. As for my pieces, I couldn't be happier. Chas Bowie contributed his luminous photographs to my Yard Sales 101 article (page 69), and my Aunt Susan provided the stellar advice in the sidebar. I also got to review Leah Kramer's new book, The Craftster Guide to Nifty, Thrifty, and Kitschy Crafts (page 74).
Other treats: Stacy Elaine Dacheux's feature on Artifact in San Francisco (page 78), Amy Sedaris's cupcake recipe (page 55), and a beachy keen how-to project from Crafty Chica (page 68). I heart Venus.
