excitement!
First I was so excited to see Kim has a new blog, True Up, devoted entirely to fabric. Woo! But then how even crazily more excited am I about her current post about the new custom fabric printing outfit Spoonflower! My mind is racing. I wonder what the quality will be like. I wonder how soon it will be available! I'd love to try it out on the printed dolls. And I need to make some labels. And how cool would it be to make little prints for patchwork kits for doll quilts. I've actually got Tim working on some little drawings right now for something else that would be sooo cute as fabric. Arh! I'm going to stalk Spoonflower until they open their doors. hello... are you open yet... hello...
oh, and the shake it pattern. I always wanted to make myself a shake it pillow...
hello....

Spoonflower's venture sounds fantastic! Very exciting. I have to say again that I loved your printed dolls so much. My Little Bush Princess would love one of your wonderful creations - Jen

Do you remember those old Mervyn's commercials, with the lady's nose pressed up against the window, saying "Open, open, open"? That's who you remind me of... :0)

Hi Hillary,
A little while ago I was inspired by your search of clips to stay in little ones hair. My daughter cannot keep a store bought clip in her hair for love or money. Come on over and have a look at what I did. Tell me what you think! Have a great day - Jen

I know, I've been anxiously awaiting the advent of Spoonflower since I heard about it a couple of months ago! I think that it has amazingly cool potential. Open, open, open...
