My Latest Obsession

It's safe to say I'm obsessed with this fabric. It's just so perfect... great colors, beautiful images.. all on my go-to texture: linen.


This picture is from the work of Jamie Meares a la Furbish Studio.

I found these images from an Etsy listing, but the fabric has been sold:







It's called Nympheus by GP & J Baker and is to the trade (email me for info). It's super expensive but (in my opinion) worth every penny. It's like art! I am 99% sure I'm going to use it on one pillow in my family room.

Speaking of fabrics, Kirsten and I pulled out all my fabric memos last night and played like we were 5 years old. It was so fun :) I love having a fellow designer around!

We're headed to market today.. can't wait!

I'm alive!

So sorry for the silence yesterday! I left early in the AM to head up to High Point Market and didn't prepare a post.. oops.

I walked Market with Lisa Sherry and her team. I adore them!!! It was refreshing and such a learning experience to see other designer's ideas and what they were drawn to.



We also went to see Bunny Williams talk - it, too, was GREAT. She gave such helpful advice. When I have more time I'd love to write them out for the blog.

Kirsten is coming into town today and I'll be going to market with her tomorrow. Can't wait!!

Hindsight, I should have probably prepared posts for the first half of this week, but I didn't. Again... oops. Keepin' it real folks.

I'll be back soon!!

** I'm also pretty behind on emails. If you've emailed me, you're on my mind and I promise to respond as soon as I can! **

THE APRIL GIVEAWAY

I'm really excited to share this month's giveaway with you. It contains a lot of something I love very much..... FABRIC!! And there are multiple winners!






The folks at Waverly contacted me to see if I'd be interested in hosting a giveaway with their new fabric collection called Modern Essentials. As I've mentioned before, the reason I started up the monthly giveaway is to thank you guys for reading and to share products I love with you as a token of my appreciation. When I saw their new line of fabrics I really loved them and said YES they are perfect for my monthly giveaway!

Waverly graciously gave me 10 stacks of 5 one yard pieces to give away!!

The "grand prize" winner of this giveaway will win all the items above: 5 stacks of 5 one yard pieces of fabric.

I also threw in my favorite candle right now that I purchased from Home Goods and the prints I used to make my line drawings from yesterday's post. I don't know about you, but we've been having a LOT of rain lately and the colors in this post remind me of all the bright colors that are emerging as a result of the run.

Waverly will also be sending a stack of 5 one yard pieces (of their choice) to 5 other winners! So there will be a total of 6 winners this month.



I really love the Ikat prints, the circle prints and of course the purples (I loove purple if you didn't know yet).

This new Waverly Modern Essentials collection will be launching this April in your local JOANN store.
