my book is here!

at long last, my book, design your own tees, is coming out TOMORROW! i can't believe it. it has been over two years since i first met with an editor at st. martin's press to brainstorm this book into creation. the book is filled with creative ideas and techniques to show you how to print, stitch, and stamp tee shirts (or anything else, really) and hopefully inspire you to spruce up your wardrobe with some handmade creations.

here are a few pictures from the book, just to give you a sneak peek of some of my favorite projects:

totem tee
potato stamping


rough edges
raw-edged applique


cherry blossom

screen printing


i am planning to be selling the book at a bunch of craft fairs and book-related events throughout the fall. if you have any ideas for a book event in your area, please let me know.

and i hope you'll decide to pick up a copy to keep or give as a gift. thanks for your support!
