Pin Pals part deux

We're making some changes as the year draws closer to an end, which we think are exciting (and make us a little teary eyed) but mostly mean we're going to share new and more elaborate work with you in the future.

 We're closing the shop this Fri.

This blog will now become a forum for Sara and I to post new work and inspiration, and act as a companion to Sara's illustration site, and my tumblr.

This doesn't spell an end by any means though, in fact it's fueled us to be more creative already:

 

Sara will focus on larger scale illustration and freelance work, as well as plush dolls, and papercraft.

I'll be opening a new shop under MaudStitch after the holiday rush, that will include textile based work like cross-stitch, quilting and rug-hooking.

Thanks to everyone who has supported us over the years! You can still grab some Pin Pals merchandise at Handmade Holiday, Holiday Handmade (Denver) and City of Craft

We'll see you soon.

Miniature Tissue Box

This tissue box holds precisely 1 tissue, rendering it fairly impractical.

(but maybe that's ok)

I also finished the ladybun's with their shadows and aura balls in time for the Piecework show in less than 2 weeks

(yikes!)

What's new?

Excited to be featured in the Winter edition of Stitch magazine!

Also, some works-in-progress for the upcoming Piecework show in Toronto.
