I recently decided that I like pretty things and went on a mission to find new craft/style/design blogs by women who suit my not-lame sensibilities. I like cutesy, and I like pink and sparkly, but I like them to be presented ironically, and I can’t handle middle-aged women calling themselves hipsters while living on the Upper West Side and wearing J. Crew.
So Liesi of the blog Too Crewel caught my eye, with her asymetrical haircut and her bearded boyfriend (or formerly bearded, at least) and her clever typography. Oh, yeah, and her crafting skills ranging from embroidery to crocheting to cooking, which somehow manage to interest me even though the closest I get to crafting is filling the refrigerator full of magnets to annoy my roommate.
This month, she gave sponsorship spots to Cassie and me and introduced us to her readers in this post, so I thought I’d return the favor.

Heyya babe – can’t thank you enough for ordering my book. But I’ll try.
THANK YOU!! THANK YOU!!!!!!
I’m on my way to being the caped wonder!
Your friend Liesi makes such cute stuff. I esp. love the embroidered version of her & her man. I asked whether she’d do one of my family for Christmas. Can you imagine how awesome that’d be?!

Because, yes, we ARE pretty awesome.
I have to agree. I think you’re both pretty awesome too.
Added to the ol’ Google Reader. Which, considering the ruthless unsubscribing kick I’ve been on lately, is quite an honor, if I do say so myself.
Fun blog! I love her header.
Oooh I love getting to know new blogs! Love her embroidery & I think the picture she uses of you in her sidebar is just awesome! :]
:) Thanks, Lady!
When it comes to crafting a refrigerator full-o-magnets is much better than one full of magnates, you know.
