We'll be posting some new designs in <a href="http://babyleila.etsy.com">our shop</a> this week - look for our new puddles pants, some new mobiles, new dresses, and more! Spring is definitely here! I found some delicious japanese fabric that I hope to incorporate into some designs - I've already used some of the dinosaur fabric on the new Puddle Jumping Pants. What little kid doesn't love dinosaurs?<div><br /><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgL8XKM0efIuUtXw9EIxl5AI7SPWl_qdf2N9X6x_hRktKiZG50AOf50YY2hvAVGfKXrVVTecuAvXWUlcM25sjqJGl0HdrPzllw2MBtg1PzVqIin_EhXx_LCGOprvrA7uvYnr06Pf1am8iiE/s320/puddledino3.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5184436089835103490" /></div>babyleilahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05226071115911621305noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1435344129887655932.post-83273401860563821142008-03-31T09:20:00.003-06:002008-12-13T15:39:01.567-07:00Lotta Jansdotter<div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj8260KcNH37lYcXijt8WQAZ_NfRLExkEyCbFyOogxEIO7FYZ-rgDh8FDmZQYLYhsrRdlKvbWRrcbmjKEfx03dtW3QITpc_VnCXb7yAFit7CmK7kOgZ083kLeDlBfr4muTjaO371il_20eL/s1600-h/mar31blogpost1.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj8260KcNH37lYcXijt8WQAZ_NfRLExkEyCbFyOogxEIO7FYZ-rgDh8FDmZQYLYhsrRdlKvbWRrcbmjKEfx03dtW3QITpc_VnCXb7yAFit7CmK7kOgZ083kLeDlBfr4muTjaO371il_20eL/s320/mar31blogpost1.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5183927157685363922" /></a><br />I've always been a big fan of Lotta Jansdotter. Her simple style mixed with traditional and modern Scandinavian form is simply fabulous. I thought I'd do a little posts on one of her great books: <a href="http://jansdotter.com/shop/item.php?serial=501">Simple Sewing</a>. Filled with all sorts of sewing projects, from totes to to things for the home, this book is great for not only expert sewer, but also aspiring sewers.

Based in Coquitlam, Canada, they have a modern pet line that would make any dog smile (or at least wag their tails). I especially love this <a href="http://www.vurv.ca/pages/mainindex.htm">raised feeder</a> - who knew dog bowls could fit so seamlessly in the modern home? And their <a href="http://www.vurv.ca/pages/mainindex.htm">ellipse dog bed</a> would be right at home beside my (future) Eames Lounge Chair.<div><br /><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgTibmSDT74d310jTJuhSKh3x2ARd9-D8RJokXjV6FN9RRTMRDLSeI5w-st39yxcFrE5RTFRaJK-7mMnHz0-9kKhsTJA-YJecZhDFY_ZxFN1z9aYEiTPAphRrbTw0t6_AYy5H7zycW7tDjV/s320/mar3blogpost2.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5173722025231138178" /></div>babyleilahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05226071115911621305noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1435344129887655932.post-76329597203036697382008-02-29T08:43:00.004-07:002008-12-13T15:39:02.631-07:00Beautiful Bird Prints<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhGO0oX3nYUaEACmO9yjNTDWthAQROMu4VIiooE0F-59GxxCBAKRNjc9xbBkEFqBg0tE5V-jVq1IyV9i4Tkf9fHuOOIeq_heAyLesmOxQ2yX9YT2oDuhDdQzsIiM5Qa3fk-K8Cc6tLPwpyN/s1600-h/feb29blogpost1.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhGO0oX3nYUaEACmO9yjNTDWthAQROMu4VIiooE0F-59GxxCBAKRNjc9xbBkEFqBg0tE5V-jVq1IyV9i4Tkf9fHuOOIeq_heAyLesmOxQ2yX9YT2oDuhDdQzsIiM5Qa3fk-K8Cc6tLPwpyN/s320/feb29blogpost1.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5172429615220200594" /></a><br /><br />I found these gorgeous bird prints from Kareem Rizk of Austrailia via <a href="http://www.designspongeonline.com/2008/02/kareem-rizk.html">Design Sponge</a>. Wouldn't they look amazing in a nursery or kids bedroom??? So modern and full of interesting detail, they're also affordable at under $25 a print, and 10% of every purchase goes to Starlight Children's Foundation Australia.
