You've got mail.

Well, I don't know if you've got mail. But I got some today...

You know, I am not typically a physically demonstrative person. Which is a nice way of saying I am kind of a sloth.


So it is a testament to how excited I was to get a thick Tyvek envelope with a North Carolina postmark that I actually bounded from the mailbox into the house. That's the only word for it.

So, here it is! My first yardage from Spoonflower. I am so excited that I said, Natural Light be Damned!, and took these pictures. The color is fierce! Like surface of the sun fierce. It's not for everyone, but it makes me smile. (The Blogger picture engine seems to be dampening the color [boo]--for more photos with more accurate color, check out my flickr designstream.)

These first yards are destined for pillow-dom and my etsy shop. If you're interested in snagging one (I'm thinking 12"x12", but I'm flexible.), email me, and I'll reserve some yardage. Even though I could have this printed infinitely at Spoonflower, I'm thinking it will be more special if I limit the yardage I make. What do you think?

You know what I think? Woo!

[update: In the bright light of day, I kind of reconsidered my level of ecstatic praise for the color.]
