music monday: fade into you (& pit bulls)

fade into you by mazzy star is this week's music monday song!

i thought i should take this time to talk about an issue a lot of you know about-and that is terrible stereotyping of breeds. we used a pit bull (one mr. nestor pants) as our model, and when we launched this new pattern, we received such a loving reception from the people of the pit bull community-it was almost unreal!

there are a LOT of great organizations working to bring awareness to the slogan "it's not the breed!" thanks to groups like bad rap & stubby dog, the message is getting out there & helping these lovely dogs!

in honor of their hard work, we would like to donate 10% of all web sales from today through the end of this friday to these 2 rescues. please help us spread the word!!

(pattern is here on our site!)

music monday: the soundtrack of my life

so you may or may not know that all molly mutt patterns are named after songs (*gasp! it all makes sense now!)

one of the first patterns when we first opened for business was "your hand in mine". it remains, 2 years later, one of our most popular patterns.

since i first heard this song, i knew i would include it my life's soundtrack. it's absolutely perfect for that great transition scene-where each image blurs into the next one, in that muddled movie way. (i can seriously picture this down to the pictures i would use. yes, i am nothing if not a nerd.)

for your listening pleasure, here is "your hand in mine" by explosions in the sky!


(*thank you sarah beth photography for the lovely picture of gracie on the your hand in mine pattern!)
