Vacation

Going on a much needed vacation: Camping at Cape Henlopen right on the ocean in Delaware, then off to a mini island near Portland, Maine.  Be back in 3 weeks.

I love Anna Gleeson's stuff over at Bliggedy

Fashion

Sorry, I haven't visited Vogue's websites in a long time... so many cute girls with cute clothes.  I love the tunic second from the bottom, another beautiful simple top that I could most definitely use as inspiration.

Fashion

Bodkin

I love this collection, neutral tones, minimalistic pieces, knits, sheer and flowy, draped and layered- all so up my alley... this will be good inspiration for when I start trying to make some pieces.

Photo Shoot

Eeek!  I almost have all of my negatives uploaded from my photo shoot earlier this month.  My roommate shot a bunch of my knits and screen/block printed linens.  My friend Amanda took these behind the scenes photos from the shoot.  Even these look amazing! so I am pretty excited to see the film.  Will post more as soon as I get them.

Homes

I could live here.... yep, I could definitely live here.

I wonder what it's like to have money?

One of these days I am going to grow up and have money and buy nice things.

I need to stop buying things.

These images from Odette and Junkaholique make me want to go thrifting ... really, really bad.

Fashion

I think I want to venture into sewing/making clothes.  I've had some images of styles and fabrics going in my head for a while now.  How hard can it be?.... probably super hard.  I've made some stuff before but pretty amatuer.  They offer lots of different types of garment making classes at a fabric store not too far from where I work, I will have to look into it.

Bookhou at Home is one of my fave blogs to follow, she has such a great little shop which I am determined to visit one day in Toronto.  These are some image outtakes from BAH Magazine.

Teacups - Chelsea Jade's band from Willow Ships.  I love this song and this music video.

Photo Shoot

Busy busy busy busy.... I've been so busy trying to get everything around and ready for yesterdays Louder Space photo shoot.  My roommate Paul Wilson took a bunch of photos of my knits in the building where my studio is located, and then we went to the park and had a beautiful picnic scene set up to show my linens, block prints, and screen printed stuff.  I have the most amazing friends in the world and I was lucky enough to have about ten or so of them come model for me and help me do some set design stuff for the picnic shoot.  The whole day was just a huge success and after everything we had lots of champagne and a pizza pool party...  All the shots were done with film, so as soon as we get them scanned etc I will post some.  My friend Amanda snapped this lovely shot at the picnic - in Delaware Park
