Guerrilla knitting installation on 9th street fence - East Village. (We also spotted some street pole mosaics, perhaps from a time of "mosaic bombing")?

billy boy and mia




































My everyday bag finally hit the deck, and as I cannot find time to make one at the moment I went on a fun handmade bag search. Nothing came from the local markets so trusty esty it was and I found the bag above from talented seller billy boy & mia. I just adore the bag, down to the way it was packaged in a drawstring and the bonus keyring that came with. billy boy & mia makes items from vintage and salvaged fabrics, i look at the store and think "she makes what i would make". She has a lovely blog and can also be found on madeit.
