Thesis update

just got my yardage back last week, and they are a little bigger than i thought. but then again, 3 yards is 3 yards... 9 ft... 108 inches. oh yeah, and they won't be pooling on the ground. i plan on suspending them from the ceiling so the bottom just hits the floor. 

so here i am starting to embroider the yardage. it's definitely going to take a long time, but so far i have two colors done on my west philly print. yay! still a lot to go though...

some details of the embroidery done so far. 

soooo, i absolutely have so much more work to do, BUT i'm in a good spot!

a preview of stock prints for S.P.S.

i really just wanted to put up some of my freelance designs i did this summer. these are only 3 out of about 160 or so that i did for a new website called Surface Print Source. even though some of these are not necessarily not aesthetic i really enjoyed just busting out all types of designs this summer (and school year) for S.P.S.'s stock print collection. more to come in the future!

my new best friend has arrived!

 

yeah, maybe i am a technology geek or whatever. but c'mon, every girl should get excited when her wacom bamboo tablet arrives (especially when she is an avid photoshop/illustrator user)! my baby tablet arrived yesterday and i can't stop using it. i call it my baby tablet because its actually a lot smaller then i imagined and from what i saw on wacom's website. size doesn't matter though, its how you use it
