Design

Cottage Industrialist textiles feature patterns with bold colors and organic forms. They are available in my etsy shop. Many of these patterns and other wee drawings also make appearances in free printables featured on the blog.

Food

Whether hunkering down alone with a bowl of soup or swirling about preparing for a big gathering, there is pleasure in the small details, meditative calm in a well-stirred pot, and satisfaction in an emptied plate.

Craft

life

Winter blossoms, singing in the rain, sun on the water. Laughter and inspiration are all around. Blogs, poems, and stories ensue.
