Camel Toe Shall Be My Own

Inspired by Sailor Jerry's bizarre and prolific use of camel toe in his tattoo flash, Randi hand painted and constructed this fine specimen. It's also a nod to our home town, Newark, Ohio. The ladies there feather their hair with combs stuck in the back pockets of camel toe jeans, and they apologize to no one. This one's for you.

Linen: Good for the Soul

I've spent a couple days working this design out, and I'm pretty happy with it. I am especially fond of the boxed/patch pocket treatment, and I think this particular design element has endless possibilities. The front pockets snap, the side ones zip, and are just big enough for my cell phone. I added a zippered pocket in the lining, but I set it higher, and designed it so it created another pocket that things can just slide into. I had my JoAnn's ad in mind here. This bag is mine. It's a prototype also.

I also sent in my 500 Handbags entry last week. I've been nagging Randi like an old lady to get hers sent, because she hasn't done it yet.

I think I might become a Shintoist. They seem to have their shit straight.
