I'm really mad for these little scalloped-shingled cottages lately. I've been drawing them, painting them, screenprinting them...
I finished packaging the newest batch of tea towels, and I'm really pleased with them. They are perfectly imperfect, and very homey (excuse the bad pun) and cozy.
Here are a few more images:
Mine, in action:
They'll be up in the shop on Monday!
I hope everyone is having a wonderful weekend, and I'll see you soon.
And, hey! Thanks for all the Hello-bird love. It's so nice to stretch my legs a little in another direction and get such sweet feedback.

Those are super cute! I love how the outlines are just a little bit skewed. It makes them all the more charming.

Great tea-towel and I love your teapot. I just made a softie teapot red with white polka dots but a real-life one would be awesome.

Ooooh, I love both sneak peaks into 2008 Appledom. So sweet and so charming! Count me in for some hello birds and a tea-towel, if I'm fast enough in the frenzy. And if little houses with blue shingles happen to sneak their ways onto your cotton in the middle of the night, I might have to snap up the whole batch. Happy New Year, dear girl!

Boy have I got a treat for you... I just did a blog about this wonderful lady named Vicky Guile. She has some of the most interesting little minis out there and I think they might suite your style.

so sweet!! :) I love how wonderfully "imperfect" (off-printing always appeals to me) they are!

I'd like to live in a little house like that. :)

They are very cute. Love the red roof. In the kitchen shot they look a bit like gnome heads....which are very cute as well. :)
