Apple duvet covers + shams will be in PataPri shop next week!



I love bedding, I have almost 10 duvet covers and shams sets (4 of them are handmade by me and others are from west elm, ikea, dwell etc... I want more but they are bit pricy, someday I want to get a 100% linen bedding!!). I dont use flat sheets ( it's japanese thing, i think.) so, I change duvet cover every week. It's just feel nice, and visually refreshing.
When I started to silkscreeing, one of the thing I wanted to make was duvet cover with my own design. so I did! and now I'm happy to share my apple design duvet cover + shams with you.
I had fun printing these, took me all day to print!
It will be in my Etsy shop next week. so please take a look!

It was great to see other crafters too. I saw some etsy seller.
They also had Flatstock 13 Poster Convention!! So many beautiful silkscreened posters were there, I had hard time chosing. I wanted to get them all! I boutht 3 posters in the end.
I'm working on duvet cover finally. I will list it on my etsy shop by next week.

Gocco!


Yesterday, my new gocco came in mail!
I think i did gocco when i was a kid ( like every other kids did in japan back in 80's ), but it has been a while and I was so excited.
I made cards with my towel design and my how to cards and alien I drew last year for first try. It turned out pretty good!
