A crafty little atelier in a grey city

Happy Friday + Geometric Top

September 14, 2012

Can’t believe it’s Friday already! Above is a little top I made for K from this book (isbn 978-4-529-04894-1). I LOVE IT. I desaturated the image a bit for a vintage-y feel, so the color is a much stronger fuchsia in actuality. The images below are a better representation of the awesomeness of the top.

The cute blue and white striped button is from a dear friend, who brought me back a packet of adorable buttons from Amsterdam. They’re from a store called HEMA, which is like Target, but because it’s european, way better. Check out their fun site!

The linen-blend shorts were made last year and still fit. Comfy yet stylish, that’s the way we roll around here.

**P.S. For some reason, K insists on wearing band aids all the time. For months, I don’t think I’ve taken a single picture of her without one slapped on somewhere on her body.

Happy weekend, all!

Happy Thanksgiving to you and all your loved ones! Happy Thanksgiving to you and all your loved ones! I’m spending time with family in the Midwest and there is much to be grateful for, not the least of which is the slower pace this week. Sending big hugs to you! 🧡🧡🧡🧡 Incidentally, this ikebana floral arrangement is one of the illustrations that didn’t make it into my book SHIBUI — I painted a lot of extra illos!
