Oh, sweet sweetness!




These magnificent images are from Small Magazine.

It's so exciting when another issue hits the computer. The pages are so jammed with such gorgeousness which I find so inspiring. Be sure to have a look at the short film "City Mice" - cute.

And the more I look at this particular shoot, the more I wish we had a little bit of Liberty of London in our Target stores. Check out those gorgeous pillows the little ones are lying on. Oh, and check that quilt out!


i'm coming back to credit those photos.

Hexagons






Blogger - what are you doing? I haven't even told my story yet!

These little 1/2 inch hexagons I've been working on since Easter, after seeing something similiar at MO by Brigette Giblin. They are such an addictive little habit, especially given that I was never, ever going to do hexagons, ever. But I am hooked.

Cup of Tea Required







I so love this artist. Watching her paint puts a buzz in my heart, a hum in my soul.

Kerching!

Are you ready? Credit cards poised? Anthropologie now ships to Australia! Yay.


I've done some virtual shopping.

A new dress and cardi.


And a pair of Chie Mihara's. I need a pair of Chie Mihara's in my life. I think the postage may be a little off putting though - I put a belt through to the check out and it was about $40 postage - so I'm not sure if that increases with more purchases. Anyway, it won't matter if you need a real Anthroplogie fix! Happy shopping.

The Summer Project

For some bright reason, I decided to start a new project for the summer holidays. Mmmm...let's not think of all those unfinished ones. After all, it's important and most necessary to follow your creative needs, I think I thought. So, I started a really challenging one - not real rocket science, just real fiddly.
270 blocks with a finished size of 4 1/4" square, consisting of 7 pieces in the block. Yes, yes, do the math = lots and lots of little bits = lots and lots of cutting= lots and lots of sewing = lots and lots of trimming x 2!

Some of the lotsa.


Lotsa lotsa love as I put it up on the design wall. And I'm loving it, even if it's a slow project that may become an Autumn project.

Lucky Liberty Love

These absolute beauties arrived this week from Danielle. How lucky was I to win her give away? Check out this stunning little bag.

Phoebe looked through all the squares on her own and I heard many a gasp as she found her favourites. Cute. I feel a fabric lover is in the making!


Thank you Danielle for such a generous and gorgeous giveaway!
