This is a picture of a pin cushion I created a few months ago. Not the cleanest sewing job but I think it looks nice. It kind of reminds me of those strawberry hard candy wrappers :)

Sunday afternoons are the best
Sunday was nice . . . I had a great time at church in the morning and came home for a session of soup and granola-making while watching the rain pour down outside.

New print
New print carved on linoleum. I tested it out on newsprint, and will try to show a picture of the one I printed on mulberry paper (with two colors!).

Art show

I'm taking a few minutes to post an update from the weekend as I eat lunch at my desk. I made a bean, kale, and sweet potato soup and brought it to work in a Thermos. It's definitely a nice way to slow down mid-day.
But back to the weekend, I was in another art show with DR96 Gallery. This time I created a linoleum print and printed out more cards, and styled them using a hand-woven mail holder from Turkey (a gift), a thrift store stool, Ikea rug, and Bells of Ireland and eucalyptus. It was a very relaxed and laid back show.

Stocking up on basics
I have loved wearing patterns for almost a decade but I realized that I lacked basic essentials in my wardrobe as a result of all my patterned clothing! I've decided to take a break from patterns for the time being and stick to neutrals (well, and stripes--my current pattern of choice these days).
I've been looking to Land's End Canvas (hipper, younger sister of LE) and Land's End (which just mailed me the cutest catalog--love the cover art) to help me restock.
