What's all the buzz?



My very first illustrations on fabric have come in from the Mill!!!

Several days after I made my wish that I wanted to see my illustrations on fabric, it came to pass. I drew these girl silhouettes and now it's in a zillion different colors!

The vestas say "buZZ around" but originally everyone thought it was "buGG around" because the z looked more like a g before I changed it.

I thought that was so cute! "BuGG Around". Though it doesn't really make any sense, unless you drive a VW Beetle as I do.

So now I think of myself bugging around town instead of driving.

I fly out to NYC in a week and a half to work in the office there a few days and meet my east coast coworkers. I look forward to this new adventure.

OoOh, Shawn! How great! I loOove it! I'm so glad I decided to check in on your blog.
I'm also reminded of a little over a year ago, maybe?...when you made your post about how you weren't certain exactly what would happen, but you felt like you were headed exactly where you needed to be.....and you were, weren't you?

Oh Shawn, I am so proud of you!! The fabric looks so great, and it's so YOU! I just looked and gasped and said it has Shawn written all over it. I am so in awe of the journey you've been on and how you've achieved exactly what you wanted to.

Great colors- and I really like how it looks a bit retro, but it's modern. Where is this going to be sold or used?
