sachets and journals::early spring update

Your responses to my post on Friday were so thoughtful... so insightful! I'm very lucky to have you all in my life, and I encourage you to go back and check out the comments.

I got right to making several sachets with that coverlet, and I wore my new bag all weekend long! I'm so happy with it, but am refining the design in my head with each wearing. So to answer a couple of your questions: is it my pattern and will they be for sale in my shop? Yes to both. When? After I perfect the size and shape a tiny bit. I plan to make them in various materials: from burlap and ticking to more of the spring green tablecloth. For now, I've put the sachets up in my shop and even printed up some more Moleskine journals.

I can't live without mine! I always have several going at once: one in my bag, another on the kitchen counter (that's where I am most of the time),and a little one by my bed. I used them long before I started selling them, but am so proud to say that my hand stamped versions are now filling up with thoughts/sketches in several countries around the world.
In fact, the latest Sew Hip magazine from the UK just featured them in their "Things We Love" section. Yay!
p.s. I think this is my favorite sachet from the weekend and almost didn't put it in the shop, but I'll make more for me ! The little loop is Parisian lace from Sonia's wonderful shop.
Sonia just happened to be making her own beautiful Moleskine journals this weekend also! (I have one of hers, too... it's the one tucked in my bag!)

Hope you had a great weekend and for those of us that had to spring ahead... let's enjoy adjusting to the longer afternoon daylight!
