Snake in the grass.

Or on my hand, in this case. Also on my fabric samples.

Wiksten/Dealtry collab.

This looks to be exciting collaboration! (And how cute are Jenny and Helen?)

Farewell, Readymade.

This is sad news. Another print magazine bites the proverbial dust.

Silly old bear.

I think I may be waaaay too old to be excited about this, but I am (excited), and I don't care who knows it.

Summertime.

Summer is definitely not my season (I wilt like a lettuce leaf in the heat), but I am looking forward to evenings at the beach, when it's at its most beautiful... I mean, look at that sky!

I hope all of you in the Northern Hemisphere enjoy your summer, and to my friends in the Southern Hemi, happy first day of winter!

Ermie.

Check out this great interview (over at the Collete Patterns blog) with Jennifer Parry Dodge, the super-sweet, super-talented creator & designer of the incredible clothing line Ermie and writer of the fabulous blog also called Ermie (after her great aunt).

Jennifer also has a fabulous guest post over on Simple Lovely. She's got a great eye and highlights a load of great finds--and dig her awesome logo!

I have been following Jen's path since the days when she was working as a nurse, through her decision to leave nursing and be a full-time designer and artist, up to her current amazing new spring/summer line... I'm excited to see what she goes on to do in the future!
