It's so cool to see Bend-the-Rules Sewing have a life of its own over on flickr. Everyday projects made from the book are being uploaded to the group and I just can't believe my eyes! What makes me the happiest is that so many different projects are being made, not just the same one or two. Makes me so proud, man! Check out this fetching placemat and napkin set made by Meg. (That plate!) She wrote a really sweet review of the book on her blog, too. Thanks, Meg!
And look at her take on the Cat Tuffet in a Basket--total genius. A metal tub!
And more about the book. . .the Simple Tote made it into the newest issue of Bust. The article features fashions all made from patterns in new craft books. It's several pages and worth a check out for sure. And, I just got word that Bend-the-Rules Sewing is on it's second printing now. Whoo-hoo! Thanks you guys!!
I am almost done with the re-issue of the bonnet pattern (the sold out patterned from Mailorder) so I will have that available again in a few weeks. Thanks for your patience on that one. I might sell it as a pre-order because I have no clue as to how many to print. Would you all be cool with a pre-order sale on it?
