It’s been kind of a whirlwind few days. The kirtsy girls came to town on Monday. We all stayed together at the Hudson Hotel. We hosted a Hands on Kirtsy session that night. Awesome. Met oodles of interesting people. Then followed it up with a Meetup. See Gwen Bell’s pics here. On Tuesday we made a field trip to Hershey, Pennsylvania. Hung out with Jesse Engle and Aaron of Tomorrow Pants. Amassed chocolate. And more chocolate. This morning — Wednesday — it was business meetings back in the city. And then I dropped off the crew at LaGuardia this afternoon. And now I’m home. In reporting mode.
One of the people I was lucky to meet at the Hands on Kirtsy session is Tina Shoulders — designer and brain behind Laidback Home. Gorgeous pillows. Hip totes. From textiles she designs herself.
And my addiction for/crush on textile designers continues…

It was wonderful to meet you! And to learn cool stuff! I feel more up to date now :) And when I got home I could actually teach my husband something internet-related, for a change!! Thanks for the excellent session! Wish we’d had the chance to chat more.
That camo pillow is sexy with the orange zipper, but not $60 Angelina sexy =(
Here’s another designer textile product you might like: Foof bags. Check my site for hands on thoughts.
I’m so glad I could make it to the Hands-on Kirtsy event–fun and informative!
Tina had one of her totes with her, and it was so yum. It’s on my wish list now.
Those are really fabulous pillows! Thanks for sharing!
Those pillows are gorgeous! I know a lot of women have shoes as their weakness, but for me it’s definately pillows. I use Alluminare to design my own decorative pillows. So much fun!!!
