Polish Pottery and Dream Studios

After our lovely weekend at Lisa's mom's house, I wanted to make a thank you card for Jeannie.

Cream and Sugar

She has the prettiest collection of hand formed and decorated Polish Pottery in a variety of patterns. She also had the teeniest crystal salt cellars passed down from Lisa's great-grandmother. I loved the little spoons.

Steady progress is being made on my Drops Jacket 103-1. The back and 3/4 of the front is completed. Isn't the moss stitch lovely?

I've been thinking of my dream studio lately. Working in facilities, I miss the more creative part of interior design. So tonight, I went back to my roots and did a quick conceptual sketch of one version of a dream studio. I forgot how much fun it is to create a space with no rules...or budget (wink).

Sketch for Dream Studio I

Old school roller skates were included for extra efficiency, and to glide on the imaginary ebony stained herringbone wood floors...dream on!

There is an image that has stuck with me for many many years...in the Freanch movie "Diva" there is a big loft space with a girl roller skating around + I always dreamed of a space big enough to skate in. I would sketch my perfect studio with this in mind.

Mummy is going to flip over that card. It's so gorgeous!

I like the idea of roller skating around...if I could stay on my feet.
