I've been wanting to get my hands on this French childrens fashion magazine Milk ever since I saw it mentioned on Rosa's blog. It finally occurred to me, duh, to appeal to my Parisian cousin and voila! here it is, all glossy and European and cool. Now I need to find something wonderful to send her in return so she'll continue to support my new habit. More pics here.
I'm loving this groovy book I picked up at the Oak Park Library book sale this year...
"Dedicated to all the boys and girls who are trying to discover who and what they are."
I think maybe I'm plaid shirt guy who kinda looks like he's trying to sneak away from the festivities...
Who are you?
Props for the first chapter of the make-a-long story are going well, locations not as well. Pesky kids everywhere!
Someone was asking me how'd they assemble the make-a-long book so that it looked nicer than a bunch of pdfs printed out and stapled together. Actually I wasn't planning on having the story photos as part of the pattern pdf. What I was thinking was that while the story was in progress it would be online only. I was going to ask Tim to set up a separate page or section just for the story to play out. Then after it's all completed I was thinking of having just the story part printed up at lulu.com maybe. Has anyone used them? They look pretty snazzy. I like that the books are printed as they are ordered and they look like they're really nice quality.
I should be working on my works in progress. I have instructions to write, props to make, locations to scout (yay!) but I've finally got Mr. I've-mastered-the-2-year-old-tantrum and Miss. cutie-newborn-feed me!-feed me! asleep and all I can muster is blog surfing and soap watching. Oh and being distracted by this page in the Walthers catalog that I'm convinced will make some sort of awesome new quilt for Oscar.
isnt' that cool?!
