Septembers issue of Shojo Beat has another of my tutorials for any one interested! It's on making your own personalized pencil cases!
I used the lovely Sebastian as the model for mine, and can't wait for my evening class to start again so I can take this little guy out with me!
We also got a mention in the Get Japanese Fashion article which was rather cool!
On a nerdy note I was excited to see a new series Honey Hunt in there from the creator of Hot Gimmick. I loved Hot Gimmick so I was kinda excited to see this one pop up!

Actually, I was flipping through it again a few minutes ago, and was thinking of your past ones -- do you keep copies of all your past articles? I need to read your teacup tutorial! (That issue was right before my subscription kicked in, poo. Eventually I want to collect back issues, but that's kind of a daunting undertaking.) I figured if I asked nicely, you might let me read it/clue me in sometime we visited. XD
I love Shojo Beat! Even though I feel like I (and some of my friends, cough cough ;) are older than the majority of the demographic, it still feels like MY thing and OUR thing, you know? No shame in being a Cute Girl in her twenties; we can just be good role models for the younger girls. <3 I don't feel like I need to be an old lady and read old lady magazines! I love Shojo Beat.

It's funny about the age thing, A while back when I first met the editor she told me that a lot of Bookstores put it in with the kiddy magazines like My Little Pony, I had to laugh at saucy manga like Nana being put on the shelves for 6 year olds!
I know what you mean though, I love my Shojo Beat and Shonen Jump, but I'm also all about Sew Beautiful and some of the older demographic magazines. I think the only magazine you have to be truly old for is The Peoples Friend http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Pe
As for fabric we should go out to G-Street sometime and drag as many NoVa lolis as we can gather! Sue, Katherine and me went out there together to get kanzashi silk, we can make it a Sunflower (the vegan Chinese place) and fabric meetup!
As much as I like your little projects, I have a suggestion for one!
Your photos are always really nice, how about a tutorial on photography for other lolitas to best show of their treasures?
Hope it isn't too forward of me to suggest *^_^*
I have the cute book where they also teach you how to make pencil cases, but I was wondering, how did you get the bunny print on the pencil pouch. Is it something that was already on the fabric or did you do some customization in the design?
And cool tutorials and articles. xD
