This week I was completely mesmerized as I read about the Mayes family and their unique home. This family of six lives within 250 sq ft inside a converted school bus, and the interior is unbelievably beautiful! I was delighted to see that they own a couple Cotton & Flax pieces, too, which just adds to the minimalist charm of their cozy living quarters.
I spy a Grid tea towel on their oven, and a Hills + Valleys pillow on the sofa!
See the whole tour of their home on Apartment Therapy!
So inspired by the gorgeous black and white decor in Lauren Memarian‘s home. Her ability to keep her plants healthy is admirable, too. As if I weren’t already in love, I spy a Cotton & Flax Zig Zag pillow on her bed!
A few other things that sparked my imagination this month:
Loved seeing the NY Times feature Justina’s recipe for a feel good home.
Are you doing any spring cleaning? Ashley from The Gold Hive KonMari-ed her closet, and shared the process on Instagram Live.
Listening to Jessica’s Marbury Mix in the studio as we speak.
Really transfixed by the connections between quilters and abstract expressionists! If you live in NYC, I’d recommend going to see this show before it closes this weekend!
Picked up a copy of The Secret Lives of Color at the library, going to dive in this weekend!
I continue to be impressed by the amazing Arroyo projects popping up in my Instagram feed. It’s amazing to see how many talented makers have used my fabrics in their work in the year since Arroyo has been released! Here’s a few of my favorite recent projects:…
If you follow me on Instagram, you may have noticed that I occasionally post inspiring quotes from women I admire. I gather these quotes under the hashtag #cottonandflaxinspiration, and I return to them often when I need to be lifted up. In 2018, I’m hoping to expand this series more, featuring more quotes, images I find in my research, as well as the art of friends who I admire. Follow me on Instagram to see the series take shape.
Happy new year! Here’s to a creative 2018!
Now that Arroyo has made its way into retail fabric stores, I’ve been excited to see more projects made with Arroyo fabrics popping up on social media. One amazing project that caught my eye is this gorgeous modern quilt, made by Meghan Buchanan of Then Came June.
Want to see more photos of this gorgeous quilt? I know I do…
