The special edition Studios issue of Cloth Paper Scissors should be on the newstand April 1. It includes my project instructions for a 12-pocket colored pencil roll. I know the pre-orders hit mailboxes this week because I’ve already received some very lovely e-mails. Thank you!
A HUGE thanks to Kelly of Whatever is Lovely and Michelle of greetingarts for testing the pattern with zipped lips, in the dark of night, under time pressured conditions. You gals are fab!
The photography is gorgeous, the whole issue a treasure. A peek at 21 different studios and 9 different hands-on projects are included. A book for the price of a magazine.
Seeing so many working studios with creative solutions to common problems is extremely inspiring. I say ‘working studios’ because the artists are in their spaces creating in square footage from tiny to really big (yes Pam, I’m totally drooling over all that space!) and it’s all real, not staged to death. It gives me hope that I too can one day be organized!

I cannot wait to see this, thanks for sharing!
It’s an amazing magazine special issue. I just got it at the bookstore today and was pleasantly surprised to see your pencil roll in it. Very cool! I’m drooling over all the great studio spaces. I wish that I could get my very own personal organizer to come over and help iron out my space too. This is definitely one of those issues that I won’t cut up or throw away. Too many pages of inspiration!
I’m so excited for you that you are getting more coverage for your pencil roll – Congrats! I bought the Patchwork Quilted Gifts book specifically for this pattern. But, as soon as I saw the color wheel quilt, also fell in love with this. I started cutting it out last night – can’t wait to see it finished and hanging on my living room wall!
YAY! Can’t wait to get my copy!!!
Congrats! Looks like a lovely article; I’ll have to check out the magazine!
So great to see your fab pencil roll published. I’ll be on the look out for this issue– looks like a good one. Congrats!!
As if the magazine wasn’t cool enough already! Congrats to you on more great ink
Congratulations! I can’t wait to pick it up at the bookstore. I’m working on my studio space now – it is the size of half my house – sort of a basement, and I am sort of stuck on best use of space mixed up with using all my ideas. I wish I could get a magazine or home organizing show to help in person! Looking forward to making that pencil roll, too. — Michele
Fantastic!! How exciting to see your stuff in print and it looks like a great mag!

Thanks for the link for on-line purchase! I was pleased that they’ll send it to Canada. The magazine looks beautiful- you must be delighted to see your work in it.
I went to the Big Bookstore yesterday and found it. Your project was definitely my favorite, though I might try my hand at the mobile, too.
Congrats! I just picked this up yesterday and was thrilled for you when I flipped to a page and had a fun “Hey, I KNOW this artist!” moment. Well, know in the bloglical sense at least… Anyway, good work! And a agree with the commenter above, your project is my fav.
Congratulations about being in the special issue. I haven’t seen it yet, but am thinking that I might be brave enough to take all the kids to Barnes & Noble this afternoon.

Finished reading my copy. Girl, you have hit the big time! What an honor! I am sooo excited for you—couldn’t happen to a more-deserving person!
Hi, Just wanted to say I picked up a copy the other day after reading this post…had to look high and low but I finally found it at my local Joann’s. I can’t wait to make a pencil holder!!!!
And just for good measure, I was totally inspired by all the beautiful studios! Thanks for the heads up on the mag. And congratulations on appearing in it!
I was thrilled to see your pencil case in the mag. Congrats! Keep up the good work.
