Here they are, the answer to your yesterdays clue! They were just posted to the Black Apple Shop here and here , along with the 3 Samplers of the week, which are here! . All gone for the week already. Whew! Linking, linking, all over the place.

This is another picture of the little dunces (I'm so happy with this pattern...it's the first I've made
that I really feel good about...reproducing again).
Friday_003

I want an army of dunce girls! What an adorable/slightly terrifying thought.
The photos with the white backgrounds remind me soo much of some of the images found in many of the Japanese doll-making books...it's a funny contrast, the starkness of some of that (sterile?) imagery, with the warmth of the handmade, soft object.

A bunch of little paper-items came my way yesterday that just made me so happy, I had to let you guys seem them as well. Here is my "chart":

Postfaves

1.) The back of an envelope that came from the wonderful Becky
of The Sweetie Pie Press . Those little sock puppets/snakes/aliens singing to
each other just really made my afternoon a bit nicer.
2.) An incredible invite to a printmaking openhouse-party-whatevah that my friend Danielle
made. The wierdo thing is that some of the ink on the invite is hot pink. I mean hot, super bright folks, not the pretty pastel it appears to be. But I love it in either form.
3.) The cute little printout swatches that EQuilter sends with your order. So you can see that I'm
a very happy lady in the fabric department, as of yesterday afternoon. Maybe I went a little crazy.
and
4.) The contents of the package from Sweetie Pie Becky, these day of the week buttons! Oh my goodness, how I love these. I don't even know what I'm going to do with them, but I feel like they would be a very helpful and adorable organizational help. I just don't know how. I was thinking that maybe one day I'll be the type of person who picks out a week of outfits on Sunday night, and then these will come in very handy.

I may be back later, but today is my gigantic Post Office visit day, so I have to fly on over there. Happy Tuesday!
