Sheltering bottoms
Underwear for you and underwear for someone in your hometown!
This November and December, I'll be matching every purchase from my Etsy and korijock.com shops by sending a new pair of Upitees to a women's shelter in your hometown/region for every pair you purchase.

Are you a crafty person? Creative? Sometimes I feel that way, especially when sewing or with textiles, but there are lots of things I feel too scared or clumsy to try.

Not Your Average Granny Panties: A Tale of Custom Underwear
January and Gwen had special plans for Grammie's nightgowns
Have you ever had a good idea, and then someone else piggy backs on it into the stratosphere? Best feeling ever!
I love the nostalgia of making your new favorite underwear out of your old favorite tshirt, but twin sisters Gwen and January reached out with an even more touching and special idea.
Gwen explains: "In late July [of 2012] my dearest grandmother ("Grammie" as we called her) passed away. My entire family went up to say our goodbyes and go through all her belongings. We sat in a hotel going through her pants, shirts, and nightgowns crying as we looked at each piece.
"When my sister picked up one of Grammie's favorite nightgowns and cried because they still smelled like her, I knew we had to hold onto these special pieces of clothing. My sisters and I remembered her wearing these special garments and just could not part with giving all of them to Goodwill. But they were old fashioned nightgowns and not a size that we could wear."

Filling clotheslines with undies!
Exciting things always seem to be a afoot these days, but this past week I got one step closer to offering you, Dear Reader, my Underwear of the Month Club. The official launch is set for Tuesday, October 9, and you can hold me to that. The stars are aligning for it. Until then, I just want to leave you with a few exciting details and some fun photos from this weekend's photo shoot in my friend Mallory's back yard. Chickens and all! You'll be seeing some more of these as part of the launch. As a card-carrying Underwear of the Month Club member, here's what you can expect:
- A card. For reals. How else will you be a card-carrying member? This is legit! :)
- A new, fabulous pair of underwear in your size every month that you're a member;
- Limited edition screen prints that won't be available anywhere else;
- And much more! :) Got keep some secrets for the launch!
I introduced the chickens to some undies that had a chicken on them. They weren't impressed, but I'm pretty sure it's only because the undies weren't shiny... Now there's an idea... :)
Sweet September Summer

To look forward to what's coming this fall and winter, and looking back on what has happened this summer, underwear-wise :).
Therefore, dear Reader, with many thanks for your devotion, I now share my Super Exciting Fall Preview:
