I've finally opened my Etsy shop! And it feels like it's taken forever. And...I'm still not finished adding everything. I have a lot more initials to complete! Yesterday I picked up the giant roll of giclee prints at a fabulous local print shop called Concept Link....
Waiting is the Hardest Part…
My initial/monogram prints are at the printer right now. I am SO excited to see what they look like! I'm getting them printed at a local shop that works exclusively with The Rhode Island School of Design, also known as RISD. They are going to be giclee prints, and...
My Latest Obsession…
I've had an (empty) Etsy store for over a year, and I've been working really hard to come up with some ideas to stock it. Lots of my friends sell digital scrapbooking papers, but I didn't want to go that route. So instead, I'm starting out by selling some prints. I've...

So excited to let you know that my long awaited fabric collection, Folky-Dokey, is now available at Modern Yardage! YAY! It's been a long time in development, and I think it's worth the wait. I created this collection last year as part of a final project for a class...
