Happy Friday! Have you seen the latest Making<\/a> issue, LINES? What a beaut! Carrie<\/a> and team continue to slam dunk with gorgeous content, and I’m so honored that I was a contributor! Many things have changed in my life these last five years, and one of the most glorious changes is that I now get to collaborate and work with the loveliest, most amazing people all the time<\/em>. I’m sad to say that wasn’t usually the case for the 25+ jobs I’ve had in the past, though of course there were always a gem or two.<\/p>\n

Today I thought I’d do a sort of behind-the-scenes of my projects in LINES, since that’s always fun for me.<\/p>\n

Project one was the nesting fabric buckets. I realize I’m not scoring any points for originality here, though I did add flourish on the canvas fabric with fabric paint, which turned out to not only be enjoyable, but I was also very happy with the results. Quick and easy, that’s how I roll.<\/p>\n

Here’s another pretty outtake of the buckets that Carrie shot:<\/p>\n

I can’t remember exactly whether I offered or if Carrie asked me if I wanted to contribute to the kids’ section as well. At any rate, I was planning on creating an animal nesting version and made these samples:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Then I found out that there was a distinct and totally coincidental cat theme going on in the kids’ section so Carrie wondered if I would be able to make a cat version. But of course!<\/p>\n

So cute, right?? As I’m prone to doing, I squealed with delight when I finished the kitty basket.<\/p>\n

Plus, it worked out well because the bear and owl buckets ended up as gifts for friends and K fell in love with the bunny.<\/p>\n

What you may or may not have noticed if you’ve browsed through the issue is that I did a number of illustrations, which was a dream assignment. I’ve always wanted to have my illustrations in a beautiful print magazine, and I can now check that off my bucket list. Thank you, Carrie!<\/p>\n

\"\" \"\" \"\"The middle illustration was based on the supremely adorable cat made by Erika Barratt (her instagram<\/a> AND Making<\/a>‘s feed are must-sees — so much inspiration!).<\/p>\n

The entire issue is a visual feast full of thoughtful projects and stories. I hope you check it out<\/a>!<\/p>\n

Have a wonderful weekend, everyone!<\/p>\n

I’m out of practice<\/em>
\nHaven’t created haikus<\/em>
\nin a long, long while<\/em><\/p>\n

P.S. Furoku<\/em> members! The next edition is scheduled to go out tonight…I think. I hope. Probably!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
