Anticraft: Knitting, Beading, and Stitching for the Slightly Sinister

This book will surely be inspirational in the crafty department (and this crafty woman who blogged it is freakishly inspirational with the sewing):

The Fabled Needle: Sinister…Who, Me?

Cafe 1001

This space sounds amazing:

Machine Shop » East London’s Well-kept Secret: Cafe 1001 + Short & Sweet

Cafe 1001 is a dimly-lit lounge with two spacious rooms, couches, great food (including an outside grill with great burgers), eclectic music and events. Odd street-art-style drawings cover the walls along with a strange poem or two. Weekday nights are not too crowded, weekends get busy.

On Monday nights, this all gets even better. In the back room, there is a screening of an eclectic set of short films. Really eclectic, Hype Machine-eclectic. It’s called Short & Sweet. Student films, famous shorts, music videos, strange animated films, you name it. They thrill you, make you think, wonder and feel, all the while you are on comfortable couches, with candles and drinks. Offbeat mix of music follows. Oh yeah, and it’s free.
