I went though my stash of wool yarn (which I'm happy to say seems to be dwindling down) to pick out suitable colors for my crochet lessons coming up at Assemble). Of course, I didn't have all the colors needed to create my dream granny square piece (which could be a pillow cover, or bigger, who knows?) so I ran in to Weaving Works to pick out a few extra shades. I'm very happy with the color palette I've pulled together so far, I'm channeling Sandra's gorgeous work for some color inspiration. I'm envisioning a gaggle of granny squares in combinations of the blues, green, gold, lilac pink, and some grays, all framed and joined with the cream. I'm so excited to finally break this crochet barrier in my brain. (Now I just need to take control of our Netflix cue.)
Other good stuff:
Anthology, I've already ordered my copy...home inspiration in print magazine form we can hold in our hands again! I'm excited!
Pinterest- When I redid the inspiration board on my studio wall for Fall, it felt a bit empty and I realized that lack of printed decor magazines mean lack of tear sheets and scrap. (The few I still get, like Living Etc, I only scan, I can't bring myself to tear from them just yet). Luckily though, I started using Pinterest, which is very much a virtual pinboard, and can now have all my images together online. I'm still getting used to using it regularly, but if you click on the button on the sidebar, you can see what I've pinned so far.
Superchunk is back!
Aaaand, I've got some exciting news coming this week, stay tuned.
