Looking at a lot of print designs, while working on our new product line, I have found so many interesting colors and patterns. Print and Pattern is a great on line resource for such things.
This is Rachael Taylor,her layering of pattern and whimsical hand drawn look is a favorite for me.
It is Fashion Week in NYC. I always like to focus on independent designers in the shop and here on line. Since I have been into yarn lately I love how this designer uses touches of crochet with here great mixed fabric pattern designs.

I have been working on a big new project at the Red Thread. My friend Sasha is joining me in opening the Knitting Knook inside our existing shop. I has been work and a learning experience for me. I am not a real knitter, I play with yarn for embellishing my fabric work. I do love all the texture and color, and it feels like this is going to be a great addition to the studio with all the slow down of the economy in this area. We have been successfully selling a small line of hand spun yarns and will now be offering more classes and studio work space for artisans and design.
I love the inspiration found in the web world. The new issue of Mankind Magazine is out. Find out more at Design for Mankind, great new issue from Erin.
