Announcing Pigtown*Design, the Magazine

For the past few weeks, I have been working on a top-secret project – Pigtown*Design, the Magazine. Tada!cover The inaugural issue features stories about my recent treasure hunt, some of my favourite places in Baltimore, 5-30 052 my French Ivory collection, spoons 006 textiles and fabrics, and a glimpse of Wales. donats2 I work to integrate my professional life and my creative life, with a lot of overlap. One thing I’ve been investigating for Woodbourne is doing an on-line only version of our 2010 Annual report. Instead of printing our annual report, I’ll just send a post card and an e-mail with the link to it. It’s a green alternative and a huge money-saver!

Please take a look at Pigtown*Design, The Magazine and let me know what you think!

  11. I. LOVE. IT.
    It's like your blog, but in more detail.
    I am planning my trip to Baltimore right now.
    In your next installment could you highlight a neighborhood and tell us about it? I know NYC's neighborhoods, now I want to know Baltimore's. Pigtown would be a good start...
    And brava on a job well done!

  14. wonderful, meg, not that i expected less (well, i didn't know to expect anything at all).

    but your new magazine is afternoon tea with you, and even seeing things i'd read on your blog, i felt like i was hearing them from you for the first time and all together during our visit.

    i hope conner has his new reading glasses so he can enjoy too.

  19. Meg,
    This is great. I seriously can't wait to get my first copy. I would love for you to add a few trusted upolsterers and custom drapery makers to take the great fabric finds and yard sale pieces to get redone!

    Preppy Player you should visit www.baltimore.org for a great section on all of the neighborhoods. I'm partial to Hampden and as Meg says, Woodberry Kitchen is a MUST do while you are in town. They have a great brunch.
    xoxo,
    Nelle

  22. Wow Meg! There's so much going on here -- where have I been? I LOVE the mag...is there a way to get a copy? And I completely LOVE that you're making a Baltimore Toile.

    I just cannot WAIT to buy some of that from Spoonflower!

    Great to see what you've been up to...I was not online for lots of the Summer.
