Every Day is like Saturday


I wrapped up ’07 with two huge opportunities that knocked on my perveribal door: A Swiss publishing company asked permission to reproduce an image of my Lorraine Lunch Bag for an upcoming student design book! I am always skeptical of these approaches at first; thanks to my childhood that had me ready to put up my dukes at any time. So, being the thinker that I am, I took a day to mull it over and decided yes, I would accomodate, on one condition; the copyright symbol would appear after or near Dos Chicas. They agreed. We signed the contract. Expect a report later this year as the book is slated for publication in August. I get a copy. woooooweeeeee

The second amazing thing was a surprise phone call from SELF magazine in NYC. They were doing an article about healthy lunches and wanted to have a few “samples” of the Lorraine for a photo shoot. !!! Again, I had a day to think it through, and decided yes. I had one day to get them made and shipped to make the deadline. Done. Look for that beautiful bag in the March issue coming up here pretty soon. Very Cool.

I am ordering oilcloth and cutting and sewing to get ahead for what I hope will be a lot of orders. Wish me well and send me good energy vibs. Maybe I should go have coffee with my cousin!

  1. Congratulations!!! I’m so proud of you. You rock out loud, actually, and yes, you really should have coffee with your cousin. Wanna meet halfway??

    I’m so impressed – your product in a slick NYC magazine?? I hope your email is flooded with orders! Keep me posted.

    Thumbs up,

    Rhonda
