I think about it constantly, how I wondered if it was risky to fly through Tokyo since that’s close to China and “that’s where the Coronavirus is”. What a year. 
I bought this fabric pre-printed (swipe for before) with the intention of adding more color and pattern with block printing. I carved this little block of X’s and I love this pink ink. For the other rows I’m thinking of doing the next pattern in orange, we’ll see!

I’m very excited to finally be sharing pictures, progress, and feelings on the blog. 💕 today is post 1: Inspiration and Design.
Happy Valentine’s Day to my forever valentine 😍 you are just the best. 
It may be a made up holiday, but it’s always nice to have an excuse to tell our loved ones how much we love them ❤️ so grateful for all the love in my life (like those cuties grinning in the background!)
