repeat pattern love.

Monday, April 28, 2014

honestly, there are few things i love in life like i love repeat pattern design. i know that's sort of a strong statement, but there's something about actually drawing and tracing one out on a light box that's really theraputic for me. 
since we've been working on setting up our office and organizing the closet in there, i was digging around in some boxes. i found a notebook that had old drawings from the one repeat pattern class i took in college. 
and not even because they were all that amazing, but just because i remembered how much i love it, i feel a fresh resurgence to work on some new things. 




all of the projects we worked on were only ever drawn on paper and weren't necessarily designed with printing on fabric in mind. but i've been teaching myself some screen printing and i am now determined to design some patterns that i could actually use on fabric. 


and now that i've made you look at my college patterns, i'll leave you with these: 

liberty, you can do no wrong.

baseball and birthdays

Friday, April 18, 2014


a few days ago was jared's birthday and we celebrated with a middle of the week baseball game. the charlotte knights just moved their stadium uptown, which is a bit more appealing than driving down to fort mill (sorry fort mill.) it was a lot of fun, even if the girls only lasted in the seats for about 40 minutes. 


they mostly just yelled at the dragon mascot, so winnie was thrilled when we bumped in to him while walking around. she ran over and threw her arms around him. 



there was a big grass hill that looked over the stadium where we spent most of our time. the girls thought it was so cool, running up and down. 



overall, it was a really great night. i love this little family of mine.
