Q&A with 60bugs!

If you are a rad kid in D.C., it is likely that you are wearing something by 60 bugs. Debbie of 60 bugs loves the 80s, music, pop culture and DIYing, and likes to incorporate these themes into her embroidery and gocco printing. Check out her stuff tomorrow at the 3rd Annual Holiday Booty Market.

In 25 words or less describe who you are and what you make.

I am Debbie of 60bugs and I hand-stitch and hand-print fun and funny designs on things like baby onesies and accessories, t shirts and reusable coffee sleeves. I'm a bit of a nerd.

What's your favorite thing you make?

I'm really digging the hand-stitched and hand-printed reusable coffee sleeves right now ... people seem to like them and wool felt is so awesome to work with. Cozy!

Tell us about a crafting disaster/accident.

I've had quite a few disasters, most involving my inability to measure anything the proper way. I've convinced myself that I can "eyeball it" which tends to only be true about 75% of the time.

What's your favorite thing about the holidays?

Now that I have kids, it all seems so much more magical. I'm a sucker for all of it, really ... the cheesy music, the gift shopping, the decorations. If it snowed I would be deliriously happy!

Who at the Booty Market are you excited to see/shop?

I am in awe of the awesomeness that is going to be at the market! Everyone is amazing, but I'm really excited to see my pal Kim's [of Kitten Rocks Well] fabric envelopes! So cute!
