We did a lot more with the new printing technique - it's looking just fantastic. It means that we will soon be doing wristlet bags - photos in a week or so - and later bigger and dry-cleanable bucket bags.
Someone on Etsy - out of the blue - asked me if we'd like to try printing some of his beautiful parasol-like umbrellas. He's sending a sample. If it works out (though hmm, as yet I can't imagine how we can print an umbrella - maybe I'm being dense and we print the cover and he puts it on?) it would indeed be fantastic and fabulous. I see gorgeous, huge, parchment-coloured umbrellas printed with sgraffito and other Baroque beauties from Prague. It might even make me pray for rain.
Apart from that, the deck is going well - though all was on hold for three days while we wrestled with the new prints. Here is the Wheel of Fortune. It seems that showing a tarot reader on that card is almost becoming a Magic Realist trademark!
