Another Fifteen Minutes.

Some of you dear readers who have been reading my blog for awhile might remember this post in which I talked about being in a magazine and how that turned out.

Today my daughter picked up the new February/March issue of HGTV magazine and lo and behold, the pillow I told you about here is in there:

According to the internets, it came out today.


My daughter did some international travel today and found it in Maine.  Of course she bought a copy for me.  I opened the magazine in nervous excitement and anticipation.

I found my pillow on page 54.  Do you notice anything? Do you?  DO YOU?

Do you see my photo of the pillow?  Now look at this one again:

Why do I even bother? WHY? WHY? WHY?

All I can do is laugh.  You laugh too.  We'll be laughing around the world.  The end.

Back to Business.

Yesterday Mr LC and I brainstormed some items for my Etsy shop.  As you know, I will be featured in this magazine so I figured I better start loading up on some new things.  I decided to try some aprons.  I just wish I had Janet to model them for me!

At the very least, I wish I had one of those old style dressmakers forms.  Anyone have one for rent?

Am I Ready For This?

If you have followed my blog from the beginning, you may remember my post about my fifteen minutes of fame by being featured in a magazine.  You can read it here

A few weeks ago I was contacted by HGTV magazine.  I didn't know they had a magazine, did you?  Well they do and this is the first issue:

 I was contacted because they want to feature my red alphabet pillow from my Etsy shop!  WOW!

I am thrilled and amazed.  The pillow will be featured in an article about great pillows under $30.00.  They will be sending me a copy of the issue when it is ready so I'll be sure and let you know. 

Will I have to increase my staff?  Will I have to get a new sewing machine?  Will I be able to source enough ink for my silkscreen?   Oh, the problems I will have to deal with!  Riiiiight.

Some Sarah Love.

Yesterday I received my copy of Country Living's July/August issue in the mail.  I was pleasantly surprised to see my favourite Canadian designer featured.

The article showed some rooms from the island cottage owned by Sarah's husband before they were married.

She took a dark pine walled cabin and made it into a lovely getaway home.

I love her style.  It's always fresh and clean with lots of pattern but never too much.

If you can watch Sarah's Cottage on HGTV (Canada) you should try and see it.  The whole cottage renovation is shown in several episodes.  Sarah is lively and funny and has a great side kick in her assistant Tommy.
