Did you know Saturday, September 22, is the start of Autumn? That’s in a couple weeks. And sure enough, temperatures are dropping just as kids have returned to school.
I have busy getting ready for Fall/Winter with upcoming craft shows and such, and a big focus on my pillows made from Pendleton Woolens.
I live near the Mill End store so in addition to a decent selection of fabric by the bolt they also have what has become a favorite; mill end scraps by the pound, brought in weekly and dumped into large bins on wheels. Along with other craft-makers, artisans, fashion and interior designers, I rummage through the heaps. Its fascinating to see what other people are drawn to and what they intend to make. I have been able to find gorgeous blanket fringe, large plaid remnants with raw industrial seams and can glimpse the new releases and forever classics straight from the mill, being prepped for the next season. All fodder for new and one of a kind designs.
I have a crew of talented folks and here are some recent creations. Pouches in a range of sizes which are great for gift cards or coin purses.
And a newer idea…tell me what you think of these. Plant holders or tidying bins some call them:

With all these products coming in I need to make room in the studio. So, I’m having a BIG SALE – 20% off for the last 20 days in September (including many already marked down items). Watch for the next post to see what’s included. Almost everything that is ready made with the exception of Pendleton wares and made to order items.
Thanks for reading and enjoy these last warm and sunny days of Summer!

I wanted to share a few snapshots from an article recently published in Apartment Therapy featuring Kristen and her husband Ken Naffziger’s lovely home in North Portland. Check it out.
A former PR executive who went back to school and is now working as an interior designer.
She took this picture of her living room days after the photographer was there from Apartment Therapy and I think it is one of the best. She scored that amazing coffee table at the Portland Flea market.
Kristen had asked me if I had anything that would work with the artwork by French Artist Paule Marrot, that she had found at Jonathon Adler. The Walking Rock fabric from Pendleton Woolen Mills came to mind right away. What do you think? I think it holds its own pretty well. We also paired it with some solid black cotton and creamy fur pillows.
Here are a few other great pictures:
Love the brass wallhanging from Pottery Barn and Ikea hanging pendant
Leopard Pillows from STUDIO TULLIA with lovely Asian prints in guestroom.
Pillows from STUDIO TULLIA look great with the animal throw from Restoration Hardware. This picture was before Kristen found that amazing coffee table in the picture above.
Kristin in the kitchen with her pup.
Chiang Mai Dragon pillows and Blue and White Shibori pillow, also from STUDIO TULLIA. Love the sectional and coffee table.
Lovely artwork by Lane Van Doren, an artist from San Miguel de Allende, Mexico.
This happens to be one of my favorite spots in their house especially with that large Design Legacy print featuring botanical artist E. A Seguy! I just picked up an incredible book recently called BOTANICALS Butterflies and Insects published by Assouline. The book was assembled by Leslie Overstreet, Curator of Natural-History Rare Books at the Smithsonian. What a beautiful book. I highly recommend it:
Available from Amazon
