New fabric patterns sneak peak


Hi all. So I've decided to design a fabric collection based on my embroidery pattern characters. Here is a sneak peak of the first design in three colorways. I'll be hunkering down this week to finish all the rest of the patterns in the collection, so check back the end of this week to see the rest (or at least my progress). Let me know what you think, or if you have any ideas for supporting patterns!

Artist: Victoria Webb





I'm loving these bright paintings by Victoria Webb. Many of Victoria's paintings reference landscapes. The first image is my definite fav. It reminds me of where my brother lives/works in Washington; in the mountains, getting to see the morning light after a night of grooming the ski hill. Gorgeous! See more of Victoria's work on her website, blog and etsy store.

Remember this post of the amazing cookies from Lori's Place? Well, Lori sent me a dozen of these amazing heart cookies! Eeeeeee! I gotta tell ya, they are even more gorgeous in person and are super yummy too (notice there're only six left on the plate, heh heh). And they arrived wrapped really well and in perfect condition. How fun. Thanks so much Lori!!! See more of Lori's cookies here.
