Sin in Linen continues to grow beyond the bedroom as we introduce our first shower curtains this month! The Skullstar print has been a big hit in sheet sets and duvets so it seemed like a great print to break into the bath with. Made with the same high quality 230 thread count cotton sateen fabric as our sheets, the Skullstar shower curtain has the standard 12 reinforced eyelets for hanging. They’re beautiful, soft, and low maintenance. Paired up with some Jolly Roger hand and bath towels, bathtime will always make a splash.

The roller derby revival continues to grow and is reaching more and more countries. This story in news.com.au hypes a new league starting up in Brisbane with their inaugural bout this week. And it looks like the ladies in Melbourne have a team as well [Grind Girls MySpace]  Can’t be long until the first international bouts take place.

A new blog covering art stuff in the northwest and beyond, with contributions from Roq la Rue, Fantagraphics and more launched this month. They post frequently so give your RSS reader a treat and subscribe to their feed. From Kirsten:

Roq la Rue and BLVD Gallery are launching a new art blog! We will be focused on the underground art scene in the Northwest but will also be touching on any pertinent national or international art news that catches our fancy. In addition to us blogging, we have arts writer Larry Reid on board. We just launched, so let us know your thoughts!

In a recent post they highlighted the Ladies Only opening at Jem Galleries [map] in Vancouver March 9th. Sin In Linen is sponsoring the show which will run throughout March.

It seems like the Sockit Wenches took home the title in the championship bout for Season 2 just yesterday, and now the first bout of Rat City’s third season is here already! The season kicks off at the Everett Events center, one of the best venues around for watching derby. If you haven’t been to a bout before, this is a great opportunity to get introduced to the spectacle that is live derby. Tickets are available online or at the Everett Event Centers Box Office. All of the details are here on the Event Center Website.

 Here’s a video preview -

If you aren’t familiar with the tragic story of the WM3, there are details in this Wikepedia article as well as the site linked above. You may have seen their story in a couple of documentaries on HBO  titled Paradise Lost. There is also some info and links here on the needled blog, helping to promote the auction.

Dreams really do come true! Ralphie eventually got his BB gun. The Whos got their feast back from the grinch. And now Evil Ninja got his Sin in Linen Viv Sheets. and they look fabulous in his beautiful exposed brick loft. It was back in December that we noticed SIL at the tippy top of his wish list. Between the stylin pad, new panther tattoo, and sultry bedding, its just a matter of time before Ninja has to start fighting off the ladies. 

Flowers wilt, the Whitman’s sampler is well, frankly a little dated, but SIL reminds your sweetie year round who loves em.

Dedicated to unique beds and bedding, this is our kind of blog. With posts featuring this pillow for your godfather and a fitted sheet folding tutorial that would make your mom proud, there’s something for everyone. Unfortunately things have been quiet at the Bed Fantastic of late, as well as at their sister blogs for clocks, rugs, lights…

While we can’t help evil ninja with the grenade launcher or dinner with the golden girls, were glad to see Sin in Linen at the top of his wishlist. And so much more stylish than a ratty Danzig T-shirt!

If you live around Seattle, you still have one more night to catch “Land of the Sweets“, a fresh, sexy twist to a Christmas tradition. A bawdy double entendre, the Nutcracker has been updated as a burlesque variety show as told through the bumps and grinds of Seattle burlesque dancers, many from the Seattle Academy of Burlesque.

Two shows at 7 and 10 PM, this Wednesday at the Triple Door.
