Before what I anticipate to be a larger post where I'm bound to ramble on about this summer's past craft fairs, some visual delights! A few things I covet for myself (even things I made for others, mwahaha...).
Once again, it's time to express my love for Repro Depot. Check out these Japanese beauties (all are just a bit out of my price range).
Japanese fabrics and crafts are quite possibly my new obsession.
And, now, for another installment of "I wish I had made one of those for myself, too": some patches I embroidered for a swap, using
Sublime Stitching patterns. Done in a little bit of a hurry, so as they were flattened out by the recipient's scanner, its imperfections are *ahem* highlighted.
Speaking of Sublime Stitching patterns...DO WANT:
Aside from some new bags I plan on making with purse handles purchased at Michaels during my weekend in Jersey, I'm actually going to make a couple bags for myself soon. And a dress. And skirt. However, if
Mellow Being and I decide to apply for Handmade Arcade and get in, not all that stuff for myself will get done before November. If you've done or visited Handmade Arcade (in Pittsburgh), was it worth it? It's quite a trek from New York City.
In my next post I plan on showcasing new items and an Etsy update. As soon as I get back to Brooklyn, where my camera awaits. Lates!

So I've been ramping up for my new upcoming website--hence the lack of posting and new, VERY PINK look. Also, you may have noticed that you've been redirected to
www.haasome.com/blog. Yay! My very own domain.
I've been forced to use a less-than-desired "classic template" by Blogger until I finish my own CSS. I'm a bit of a CSS newb (I know, I know...), so it's taking me a bit longer than average to get it all straightened out. Once the site IS up, you'll be sure to hear about it. And I'll of course welcome comments on look and usability. The homepage will be my shop, with links to this blog and other hopefully useful pages.
I have what looks to be a busy autumn so far! You know I love lists--hold onto your hats:
- This week: super secret awesome surprise for the lovely Judi.
- Finish website, and apply for Handmade Arcade by Sept. 1.
- Sept. 1 and/or 2: Mellow Being and I hope to be vendors at Artists & Fleas.
- Make a few new, extra nice things and apply for consignment at Cut + Paste before the craziness of the second half of September.
- Sept. 16-19: [Work] Conference in New Orleans.
- End of Sept/Beginning of Oct: PARIS.
- Nov. 11-12: How awesome would it be to participate in Handmade Arcade??
- Nov. 17: Turn 25. Woo!
Feels good to be present again. I have a few new posts up my sleeves in the midst of this CSSful month. Stay tuned...
