where the heck is time going??? june? already???
not that i'm complaining...we are really enjoying the return of sunny days :)
& a new collection has made it's debut at tarisota!
the french marketplace collection is so absolutely beautiful...& i've got a class this month with it too!
thinking of teaching my patterned paper patchwork...the patterns & colors & vibe of this collection are perfect for it...
and some other exciting tari news...our guest designer this month is the fabulous lisa truesdell!!!
just wait till you see what she's done...Amazing...
our featured product for this collection was the 7gypsies color wash dye...and since i had some linen sitting on my desk & was feeling kind of adventurous, i dyed a heart on it...it kinda became a blobby heart, but some stitching in a complimentary color kinda fixed it up...add some stuffing, some dried lavender, stripe-y ribbon & seam binding & it looks cute! i made it for a friend..hope she likes it :)
hope you are having a happy monday!!
xoxo
