New screen printed lobster dishtowels with the lobster claw oven mitts that I made for Nate's Santa Claws Halloween outfit from last year.

Iorek Byrnison Shirt

Nate and I both recently read the His Dark Materials trilogy by Philip Pullman and became obsessed with it. I know the Golden Compass movie was supposed to be horrible (I still haven't seen it) but the books are amazing. They are like a more mature, darker version of Harry Potter. Our favorite character was Iorek Byrnison the king of the armored bears. I made this shirt for Nate and I made a matching one for myself. We are such dorks.

A custom order for Maryland blue crab dishtowels, printed in red. At some point I'll print some of these in blue as well.

Inspired by the logo on my Tony's Fish Market plate I made this print of a seagull fisherman.

I forgot to post this picture of my friend from work's twins in the onesies I screen printed for her baby shower.

They are too cute.

Flickr

This is a test post from , a fancy photo sharing thing. I finally figured out how to transfer my flickr pictures directly to my blog. Now I really should be posting more often.

Engagement

Nate and I got engaged last weekend!! Yeah!

It was really shocking. He was really good at pulling of the I'm just not ready to get married act so I was rather surprised. Supposedly my words when he pulled out the ring box were "Holy shit, are you serious?" I was ridiculously happy though, as you can see in these pictures.

He took me to the cove in Palos Verdes where we had our first date. He got the ring on etsy from LaurieSarahDesigns.etsy.com.

Funny the last time I posted to this blog was when I bought my print gocco machine. I bought it thinking someday I would use it to print wedding invitations and now I can. I'm going to attempt to post more often with wedding crafts. Maybe.
