Floto

Sometimes I see something I like that costs too much money, and I go, "Ah, well." But then I keep thinking about it. I go back and look at it again. Eventually two years have gone by, and I keep looking at it and keep wanting it. Then I know that it's worth the money.

Argyle is Cool Again

I'm old enough to remember when argyle was hopelessly unfashionable, but the linear repeat of it always appealed to me. So I'm glad it's now hip.

And I love this tutorial from Laura Howard of Bugs and Fishes --

Easy to make and great looking. And what about super-sized diamonds in crazy colors like turquoise and red, or orange and hot pink? With contrasting embroidery? Whoo.

Laura has more tutorials on her blog. Know anybody having a baby soon?
