she always was the softest thing's photostream  

when we spent the day on the couch together
cuddled up in the light of the sun and moon
breathing and beating two hearts together

sometimes her nose goes white. she had just woken up in her usual spot on the back of the sofa, and she had quite the look on her face.

our dear doll of a pal stopped by for an impromptu catchup and mustard. she's always a joy, and she happened to be wearing this adorable dress which called for a pose with a red cap mushroom.

one day an introduced me to the anthropologie catalog. it's been our shared weakness ever since. anthro is synonymous with an's birthday, as it's been our annual tradition to go shopping and have parmesan garlic rosemary fries and mochas and tell each other to buy things we "need". this year for her birthday i made this reusable anthropologie-inspired bag for her shopping trips et al. it was a fun endeavour and though i hit a snag halfway through and had to reverse everything, thus making visible things that should've been invisible, i still was quite pleased with the result and think anthro should pay me for the idea of making their iconic red handled bags reusable, fabric totes. instead they will probably sue me, but whatev. it was worth it.

i made the bag to spec, including insert. i used linen on the outside and inside with stiff stabilizer in between, satiny red cord for the handles, and plastic mesh, stabilizer, and an insert from an anthropologie bag for the fabric covered insert. i drew the letters and squiggles by hand and embroidered in silver floss.
