Many of you know my Mom, who plays a huge part in my life despite our geographic separation of about a thousand miles. Mom has attended every Quilt Market with me, heavily influenced my decision to change careers and become a clothing designer (she was happy that I ended my Wall Street episode, I think--somehow parents just know when you're not a suit, heels and spreadsheet girl), and has been a supporter of her five daughters through all sorts of adventures. She's the most patient, soft-spoken person I know.
Tomorrow my Mom starts chemotherapy for breast cancer.
Fortunately, my Mom's cancer was caught early. The chemo is precautionary, following a successful lumpectomy, and we're fairly confident that her prognosis is good. Nonetheless, the anticipation of this episode in her life has been pretty hard on all of us. Two of her daughters will be getting married this spring and summer, and we want her to feel well enough to attend and enjoy the weddings. And it's just difficult to watch a parent suffer, no matter what the outcome. I can't even imagine what it's like for her right now.
In honor of my amazing Mom and what she's about to undergo, I have a favor to ask you.
There is a little boy here in New York (a schoolmate of the child of a friend of mine) who has just been diagnosed with a rare form of leukemia. Friends of this child's family have organized a bone marrow drive to search for a potential donor. Through this effort I recently learned that there is a national registry of potential bone marrow donors. All you need to do is request a donor kit, swab the inside of your cheek with a Q-tip, and you're entered into the list of potential life-saving donors for hundreds (thousands?) of other people in need of a transplant.
Here is a link to Hope for Kai, the little boy who needs a donor. May I request that you follow this link to the national donor registration site and request a kit? Of course financial donations are extremely helpful as well, so please do what you can. But that donor registry is haunting me. I can't think of a easier way to help someone else at little or no cost to yourself. The more people on the list, the better the chance of finding a donor.
So I'm spreading the word, in honor of little Kai and his Mom (and family--his Dad has cancer as well) and also to celebrate my amazing Mom. I encourage you to celebrate your Mom in this way as well.

secret loves?
I'm having two love affairs, at present.
Don't worry; Todd already knows about them. And he doesn't seem to be upset with me.
The first one is with Muji. Are you familiar? Straight-talking, really good-looking, sexy, and Japanese. I spend as much time with Muji as I can, sneaking off whenever I can get away.
Ok, Muji is a store, actually. They manufacture inexpensive, clean designs with a contemporary, no-nonsense aesthetic. I love their office supplies (especially the notebooks and sketchbooks), housewares (the clean and simple dishes and glassware), and even their clothing has a wonderful modern-but-natural/recycled aesthetic that I adore. I'm gradually accumulating a Muji lifestyle, I think: my alarm clock, favorite washcloth, most comfortable T-shirt, and many of my favorite items in the studio all came from Muji. And while I used to have to travel to the MoMA store or their single downtown location to get my Muji fix, now I'm discovering little shops popping up all over the place: near my dentist in the Flatiron district, just off Times Square around the corner from my favorite fabric shops...it's so great! Ah, Muji, my not-so-secret love...
My second big love affair is with Mark Bittman. No I'm not sleeping with him. But I'm certainly cooking with the guy. Man after my heart, I tell you. Not only do I still adore his cookbook (he has many others, by the way; does he have little elves who staff his test kitchens around the clock? How is he possibly generating all these articles, recipes and books???), but he does his cooking in a genuine (i.e. tiny) New York kitchen and, true to the name of his New York Times column ("the minimalist") stocks it with only the necessities. Oh, and he blogs, too; how can I not love him?
I think I'm gradually cooking my way through Bittman's book, but at present I'm obsessed with Bechamel sauce (and it's myriad uses) and Korean pancakes. Try them: we all adore them over here.
My favorite Bittman piece of all time? Right here. In it, the Minimalist discusses the tools you really need in your kitchen. I've been meaning to write this same piece for sewing; really, who needs all those crazy gadgets?
Stay tuned; I will do it soon, I promise.
In the meantime, I think I'll do a good old-fashioned swoon for my two love affairs. Aren't they charming and wonderful?

clean slate
How great is this wallpaper? Once it's up, you or your child, or your entire family, can create art for the frames. I love the idea of painting or drawing directly on the wallpaper, but I'm sure you could also tape or glue onto the wallpaper if you weren't sure you wanted it to be so permanent. It could be a fun way to showcase children's school work. Or an fun alternative to a bulletin board in an office or studio.
It sort of reminds me of this Sharpie-decorated basement that you may already have seen. I seem to recall also seeing some clever Sharpie-decorated kitchen cabinets someplace recently.
I think that, personally, I'd feel more confident of my own drawing abilities than my ability to hang wall paper, so I'd probably be inclined to draw frames directly on the wall than to purchase the wallpaper. (But then, I've never wallpapered while I've certainly drawn on walls.)
You can purchase the wallpaper here. What would you do with it?

New York crafters resources
Periodically I try to update this list of great places to visit when you're in New York. It's been a while since the last update, and the list could still use some additions. But here it is in the meantime. More to come as I find time:
General Fabric
B&J
525 Seventh Avenue between 37th and 38th Streets, 2nd floor
212-354-8150,
Open Monday through Saturday
By far the best fabric resource ever. Be sure to check out the inspiration walls, where the staff has collected tearsheets from fashion magazines and attached similar fabric swatches. B&J carries everything from luxury fabrics (unbelievable silks and embroidered, beaded fabrics) to basic cotton canvas (in a plethora of colors). Also a fantastic selection of Liberty of London Tana Lawn. Schedule a lot of time for this stop; you'll be overwhelmed by the selection.
Mood
225 West 37th Floor, 3rd & 4th floors
212-730-5003
If you're willing to dig, you can find some good deals here. They carry almost everything, including luxury fabrics, and can be very helpful.
Paron West, Paron Annex
206 West 40th Street
212-768-3266
Open Monday to Saturday
I sometimes do very well at these shops and sometimes leave empty handed. You never know.
Ribbons and Trim
So-Good
28 West 38th Street
212-398-0236
The most inexpensive, and perhaps the dustiest.
Daytona Trimmings Company
251 W 39 At Fashion Ave
New York, NY 10001
212-354-1712
I rarely find what I need/want here, but many other sewers are big fans.
Tinsel Trading
1 West 37th Street
212-730-1030
A treasure trove of trims, both new and vintage. Lots of other fun things as well. Does anyone happen to know if their ribbon shop is still on 38th Street? I'm unsure, since they recently moved.
Hyman Hendler
67 West 38th Street
212-840-8393
Dusty, musty, and messy, but gorgeous ribbons. It's worth digging through the bins, although you may be surprised at how expensive a yarn of ribbon can be.
M&J Trimmings
1008 6th Avenue (between 37th and 38th)
212-391-9072
Mon - Fri : 9:00 AM - 7:00 PM
Saturday : 10:00 AM - 5:00 PM
Sunday : 12:00 PM - 5:00 PM
You've got to see this place. Now with multiple rooms carrying buttons, beads, ribbons, handbag handles, you name it. You won't believe your eyes. Another place to spend a lot of time. Bring a shopping list or you might be thoroughly overwhelmed.
Tender Buttons
143 East 62nd Street
212-758-7004
Open Monday to Saturday
Like stepping back in time, this tiny shop stocks beautiful vintage and antique buttons. It helps to have a particular project you're shopping for, and don't be surprised if those buttons you love cost more than last month's rent.
Notions
Steinlauf & Stoller
239 West 39th Street
212-869-0321
Open Monday to Friday, 8-5:30
I wrote about this shop previously. An excellend source for whalebone, patternmaking paper, interfacing, grommets, bra hooks, and anything else you might need.
Quilt Shops
Purl Patchwork
147 Sullivan Street (between Houston and Prince Streets)
212-420-8798

My favorite yarn store. Close your eyes and pick a yarn; whichever it is, I'll bet it's gorgeous! If you love luxury yarns, natural fibers, and Lorna's Laces you'll be in heaven here.
Downtown Yarns
45 Avenue A
212-995-5991
Cozy, nice selection, great window displays, and really helpful employees. And that screen door just feels so welcoming, like returning home after a long day.

1201 Broadway # 3 (near 30th St. no store front on the third floor)
Monday through Friday 9:30 – 6:30
Saturday 10:00 – 3:30

It's been a while since my last visit here, but this shop is usually a good source for affordable yarns. Really the only source in the city for machine knitting yarns (on cones), and they often carry leftover samplemaking yarns from Seventh Avenue.
Japanese Craft Books

phone: 212-869-1700/ fax: 212-869-1703

212-473-3000
M-F: 10-8, Sat: 10-7:00, Sun: 11-6:30
Be prepared to spend hours at this unusual department-store-styled exotic furnishings store. My favorite areas are the children's section (in the back of the shop and up a half-flight of stairs) and the jewelry. But don't miss the bath department, the quilts, or the furniture. Oh never mind; see the whole thing. It's all worthwhile.

nifty on-line things
I embarrass myself sometimes. For example, I already told you about the new issue of Small Magazine, but it wasn't until this weekend when I took a little more time to look closely at it that I noticed the spread on bento boxes. Sorry I didn't point you to them sooner. Great, aren't they?
We're still going strong with our bento lunches over here, and I'm starting to look for a double-decker model like a few of the ones shown in the spread. That Love an Apple box is so cute!
Ok, so random links I've been saving up to show you:
I love this site: you type in your zip code and it tells you whether you should bring your umbrella along for the day.
These file tabs are nearly killing me with cuteness. Anyone know where to find them? I'm going to keep watching for them in NY, and I'll let you know if I locate any.
And I can't wait to show this site to Tsia. Ever wonder what a cow sounds like in Japan? Now you know.
Ok, back to work. I'll be back in a day or two.

1073 Avenue of the Americas (near 40th Street, across from Bryant Park)

Their brand new location, which I haven't had time to visit yet! At the Rockefeller Center location all the books were in Japanese. So what? The photos and styling of Japanese craft books are terrific, and the directions are usually clear enough to follow even if you can't read what they say. I could personally spend hours browsing the craft books, so watch out!
Inspiration
Anthropologie Rockefeller Center
50 Rockefeller Center
New York, NY 10020
212.246.0386
Anthropologie.com
Any Anthropologie store will do, but especially the flagship is a fantasy of beautiful displays and inspiring ideas. Have someone you love hold your wallet while you browse, and tell them not to let you have it until after you leave, no matter how much you plead. Really.
ABC Carpets
888 & 881 Broadway New York, NY 10003
212.473.3000
abchome.com
Wander the floors of the home store and you'll find all sorts of treasures. Be sure to check out the children's mezzanine if you have kids.
Takashimaya
