stitch & connect.
i just had to give a shout out to designer satsuki shibuya of ZAKKA NOUVEAU this morning! i am so in love with these sweet fabrics and the adorable accessories made from them. zakka nouveau will be releasing a limited edition project called ‘stitch+connect’ where each day, for the next month, a special product will be made. 100% of the sales from stitch+connect (minus shipping + materials) will be donated to the buyer’s choice of charities satsuki has listed, who are contributing to aid in japan.
what’s this stitch+connect concept? each product will be uniquely different and assigned a unique limited edition number, and will include patchwork from remnant fabrics, which is the ‘stitch’ part + to drive home the idea that one can contribute somehow with the things that they have around them = the connect part! born and raised in los angeles, satsuki is also a blogger, and a self-described “nature-loving, kooky japanese-american girl who is ironically allergic to raw fish and sake”. love her work!
Wow, so gorgeous. Those aprons are adorable. Such lovely design work, thank you for sharing!
Gorgeous pieces, thanks for sharing them Victoria! Especially notable that the fabrics are handmade as well as the items!
these are so sweet and so inspiring. p.s. loved the gravel gray post, i say go for the gilt shoes image!
sooo beautiful! i want them all!
This is so nice! I wish Zakka Nouveau was in SF, we have lots of discontinued samples all the time – maybe she could call the Robert Allen showroom in L.A.? Tweet me @billgoose if you need help.
Lovely pieces, especially the bento bags. If Bill is looking to pass along some scraps, I’m here in SF!
so beautifuL!
Kathryn, I’ll get in touch on your blog, the trick is to come by the RA Showroom on Friday – another group comes by EVERY Monday and cleans us out. The do crafts with students.
