I can get no satisfaction...

Well, I can be satisfied, but not for long!
My appetite for Japanese fabrics is ever growing with every fabric that makes my blood pressure rise. Why, oh why Japan is SO far away!!!!

I was very lucky to receive a box full of goodies and this time I have a few more traditional Japanese prints, as oppose to only kawaii ones. I just couldn't wait, and as soon as I opened the box - my fingers just wanted to hold, cut and sew the new fabric that has arrived from the magic land Japan!
I managed to whip up a few new O - Wristlets ... and I might use the rest of the fabrics to make some new "Pursonals".

Lambs and wolfs

I'm wondering if it is some kind of a nature's law - you're either a wolf or a lamb ... well, maybe I'm wrong, but one thing is for sure - this fabric is adorable!
It has been a while since I've sewn up a PocketWallet that is not "Red Owl" or "Porcupine on green". I've been starting to miss the excitement of seeing a new fabric taking the shape of my vision, and this little one turned out great. I love it :)

It's a "Pursonal" thing...

I'm building up my confidence, writing down in English... for good or bad, at the moment, I write the way I speak :) I actually haven't been "writing to self" since I was keeping a daily diary at the age of 12 (hmmm... if I could only find this little notebook now!).

Talking of writing, I just got a surprise email from a class mate (silk screening class) in the US - which brings me back to silk - screening! I'm a total chicken... I have ALL the equipment I need and still can't bring myself to start again. I have lots of new ideas of design and color - stories, but all of it is still waiting on my computer to see the light of day (someday hopefully soon).

in the photo, the first screen - printing I did, it got great response from lots of folks - thanks for your support :)

...I guess it's a "Pursonal thing", I mean, what I have in my purse.
It all started one busy morning at my local old "Sav - On"... I was just about to pay at the cashier stand, as I quickly pulled out my "PocketWallet", and along came out (and onto the floor... and to the feet of the guy that was standing next to me!!!) pads, tampons and whatnot...
I don't know how I felt at that moment... I guess I was kinda surprised in a bad way.

Since that incident I was working out the "Pursonal" design in my head for a while. I really don't feel like picking - up my inessentials from the floor ever again, and it's a great way for me to stay organized as well.
