One of the best things about having this blog has been the people I've met and have become friends or acquaintances with through our shared interests and pursuits. I was thrilled to see fellow Philly textile designer, t-shirt designer, blogger, and pal Amy Volshin's wedding in the newest issue of Martha Stewart Weddings. I was lucky enough to see some of her own photos last year, but its even cooler to see the Martha Stewart take on Amy & Leo's beautiful day and the amazing personal details they contributed. Congrats guys! Here's a sneak peek....check out the new Summer 08 issue for the rest.

I have a weakness for bowls for sure. One of my favorite things has got to be Aida Dirse's handbuilt bowls...simple, sweet, and textural. The one I have in my studio holds my unused Pantone chips...a pile of color in a bowl of color...just delightful.
