One of the perks of working right next to the largest Chinatown on the west coast is that I have access to lots of weird cheap stuff, like dollies and dominoes and farting pig keychains. I found these napkins in the basement of a Chinatown store, and since the difficult lacy part was already done (thank you, machine in China), I decided to add my own embroidery flair (thank you, Mom who was alive in the 60's to learn this kind of thing.)
My name is Jess. You can follow my DIY diary at www.MakeAndDoGirl.com.
I really love creating things—ads, sweaters, quilts, stories, pies, slippers, forts, t-shirts, videos, dresses, web sites, book clubs, pictures, cupcakes, and often in the process of all this, messes. I like to make new friends too.
