It's Friday with new and exciting news!

First off, TGIF :) I'm very excited as tonight's the big night - the first time I will be showcasing my work in an in-person vendor type setting! I've sold online for some months now, and I can't wait to put my face and words behind my work and interact with customers - I'm a people person so I think this will be great for business :)

Now, for the news! I have added a Shorely Chic pillow collection to my shop! I love pillows and everytime I see a fabric I like, I think about making pillow covers for my old and tired pre-existing pillows. I recently went to NYC and picked up all these awesome fabrics , mostly from Mood Fabrics, which if you haven't been, is definitely worth the trip to NYC!

I have so many ideas and so many fabrics, so this is a small start, but here they are!


Turquoise Ikat (front)




Luxurious in Blue




Beachy Pink




Glistening Linen (front)

What do ya'll think??

More news: Over the past few months, I have met so many awesome people through starting Shorely Chic: this blog, my etsy shop, twitter, facebook, etc... Through Craigslist, I met an amazing artist who has become someone I can call a friend. She has so much more experience than I, living in just about every city in this country and someone who has been working in the arts for years, so I learn a lot from her.
Love ya, Jole!!

Jole has recently launched a jewelry line, Designs by Jole (www.designsbyjole.com - coming soon), and has started an exclusive collection for Shorely Chic!!
More details to come!!!

Yay for Shorely Chic!!

  13. Lovvvvee the ikat pillow! I've been on a bit of a pillow bender myself...now that I (kind of) know how to sew, I can't stop myself. There are a few good fabric stores on 39th Street between 7th & 8th, too...that I need to stay away from, lol!
