Urban Craft Uprising is this weekend here in Seattle! They are stuffed full of my favorite vendors, here are just a few:
- CakeSpy, paintings, cards, cute stuff
- Crystalyn Kae, fabulous handbags
- Devout Dolls, wonderfully strange dolls
- Erin MacLeod, snap together skirts (I have a skirt of hers and it gets more compliments than any of my other clothes)
- Ex Libris Anonymous, blank journals bound from old book covers
- Idolatre, perfectly different clothing
- Jill Bliss, paper and fabric goods printed with her lovely designs
- Matthew Porter Art, childrens books, illustrations and goods (he made the poster you see above)
- My Paper Crane, adorable and fun plush goods
- Sam Trout, screenprinted t-shirts and sweatshirts
- Schmancy, handmade pins and pouches
- Slow Loris, t-shirts and silkscreens with distinctive designs
- Texture Clothing, comfy, flattering cothing (my purple shirt is from Texture)
- This Charming Candy, lollipops in deliciously grown up flavors
- Yarnia, custom DIY yarns
There are so many vendors this time around that I have not heard of, and lots of them are foods (ice cream! cake pops! preserves! gluten-free treats!).
update: See which businesses I found and loved at the show.

I just popped over here from Design Mom, and I’m so glad I did! It’s so nice to see another Texture fan. I adore Teresa and her work… Here’s my maternity pictures we did recently where most of my wardrobe is Texture.
