Bon Voyage
These lucky guys are flying off to America tomorrow for a little working holiday. They are very nervous because they are having their very first photo shoot for a book. The craft book, featuring many other fun and funky toys (jam packed with patterns), will be available just before Christmas (what an awesome pressy). Most likely they will be available from a good craft shop near you (I will keep you updated). The puppy and bunny pattern will be included.... maybe you can do a better job at them than me!
I have had a few questions lately regarding where I get inspiration from... and besides the mountains of talent on the internet, I would have to say fabric inspires me. I was having trouble getting into the mood for elephant making today and came across this new Kaffe Fasset fabric...well need I say more, that was all the inspiration I needed to dress that elephant for a wild trip to the US.
Other exciting news: the postcards arrive tomorrow from the printer YAH! about time....
*UPDATE*
Thank you to all those who enquired about the exhibition and requested a postcard... they are being sent off today. Due to the amount of requests, I am sorry to say I can't afford to mail out any more as of today, those of you who have made requests prior will get theirs in the post soon I hope :D
Congratulations on the book!!!! And how could one NOT get inspired by those awesome fabrics?!

Heyyy...I'm sorry to say that I don't own a Penguin Donkey - the bookcase/magazine rack - but I do know they're made by http://www.isokonplus.com/ and you can buy one at http://www.twentytwentyone.com for £340,-450,-
Take a look, it's a great shop!

I will be on the look-out for textile designers for you (and me!). I don't have any favorite and I never seem to notice any because they tend to be so pricy. I love these textiles for kids though...http://www.pernittengryn.dk/frame.html
You might enjoy this http://www.lynfabrikken.dk/ (check out the shop and studio) and this http://www.wendtdesign.dk/english/default.html too.
