  1. Wanted to experiment with printing on fabric rather than paper so I carved a few of these round badges for patterns and shirt pockets. Got any suggestions for short punchy phrases that could be added to this collection? (max length two lines of 6 characters each, shorter better)

  5. I can't sew but my grandma sewed for Ceil Chapman for decades. I used to tear out ads in the NY Times for dresses from Saks Fifth Avenue, hand them to my grandma, and she'd consult with me about the fabric and give me the dress in a day or so.

    Have I told you guys about Fit2Stitch?

    This is my favorite episode - a dissection of a Christian Dior dress:

  13. Made a little fabric collage for Secret Santa. This will be for my mother-in-law who holds a special sentimentality towards blue jays.
    First time doing anything like this, so I’m very pleased with the result!

  31. "Fukusa (Gift Cover)," Unknown artist, 1840-70.

    An old Japanese tradition was that gifts would be presented on a tray or in a box, and would be draped with a fukusa, a showy cloth, usually embroidered, that would show off the giver's wealth and/or social position.

    Here we have a fukusa of blue satin, embroidered with cranes in silk and metallic thread. Cranes are a symbol of longevity in Japan, as they were believed to live for 1,000 years.

    I can imagine this being used to cover a gift from a younger person to an older relative or parent, perhaps, communicating a wish for a long life. The fukusa tradition has all but died out in Japan, which seems a pity, but at least we have examples like this to keep the memory alive.

    From the Victoria and Albert Museum, London.

  37. So, is there a patterned fabric you can use to make a shirt that is anti-optimized for modern video stream compression, such that your meetings totally bog down for all participants because everyone’s client-side code is working so hard to encode/decode the wildly demanding images of your shirt every time you shift slightly in your seat?

    Asking for a friend.
