Not long after I finally finished the lacey print I spotted these these tights from Bebaroque at Urban Outfitters, with a similar lace inspiration. The brand is run by 2 young scottish designers doing a great job with this line of bonnie leg wear.

I had to do some research for a 50's inspired print this afternoon and came across these cute little hankerchiefs, by 50's designer Tammis Keefe who mysteriously also went by the name Peg Thomas. Most of the photos are from Japanese site Fabric-things and the Tammis Keefe textile pool. It'd be a shame to add a design of your own by blowing your nose into one of these!

Every once in a while I do a print that's an absolute killer, it takes forever and sucks all my computer's memory. This is a detail from a print I never thought I'd see the end of. Thing is, once you notice it's taking far too long, it's too late to turn back because you've spent so much time on it already aargh.
