Sewing is Believing Totes + Prints

Here they are!
Some_girls_1877

I sketched these out quite a while ago, and I'm so excited to finally be able to put them in the shop! They're so sweet and sturdy, perfect for market shopping and library book hauling. They'll be posted later this afternoon. (UPDATE: They're all sold out! Thank you so much! We'll be packing them up tomorrow)
Aaaannnndd....

There is a really great print that will be packaged with and available only with the totes! It's essentially the same design, only smaller, and with a pretty, kraft-colored border:
Sewingisprint
It's printed on smooth stock and signed and dated. The image area is approximately 7"x8",  with a white border for framing!

This will be a limited run of both the totes and the prints, in an edition size of 32.

Happy Tuesday!
We're going to bake a cake today in honor of a certain milestone in ye olde shoppe. ;)

So cute! Please please please make a knitting version of some sort! I'd be aaaaall over that.

Can't wait for your tote-I'll be the first one getting one. Maybe you can add the crochet version as well like the knitting?
So cute! Congratulations with your sale!

Oh geez, that's alot!! I wore a necklace of yours today and like Katie said, I get so many compliments every time I wear it. It really is remarkable, I think it's so tiny and secret, but people always notice it and take a closer look, which is nice =)

Those are adorable! Who does your printing for totes? I have yet to find a company with good quality images on fabric...the images fade too quickly :(
