Fun with crafty pals at SXSW

I went to SXSW in Austin with the fun folks from Provo Craft and Sarah from 26-Letters to screen print with the YUDU in partnership with Standard  Recording Company. The guys from Standard Recording made a fun tee shirt with cowboys shooting yarn that we screened for a couple hundred friends at the Dirty Dog Bar on 6th Street. The bands that played all day were great! Thanks Standard Recording for the great sounds. And since all crafty folks stick together we also hung out with Jenny Hart from Sublime Stitching, the gals from Austin Etsy and Martha from Sunday Afternoon Housewife. We pulled screens, shopped a bit from the other folks, listened to music and drank a little beer. The Austin Etsy folks had a lino printing and book making workshop going on. Later that night we also had dinner with Jennifer Perkins of the Naughty Secretary’s Club. Her jewelry is soooo great!

SXSW – Austin Fun

I sure had a lot of fun at SXSW (South by South West) in Austin. Arriving on Saint Paddy’s day meant beer and party people everywhere. What a great town, great music, yummy beer and good people. Looking froward to returning again.

Ahhhh . . . Austin home of live music, crafty people and the wierd proud
