0 Comments Published by admin December 29th, 2008 in Ideas and Inspiration, Out and About, Patterns in Nature.Skiing was not in the weather cards this weekend, so my brother, husband and I went to see Tara Donovan’s work at the ICA in Boston yesterday.

A new addition to my family of comfortable, beautiful and useful stuff. Beach Stones Quilted Coasters in my classic ivory on moss, but now backed with a great vintage brown and ivory cotton.
My vintage fabrics come from tablecloths, clothing and other textiles discovered in antique shops and grandmothers’ fabric baskets. My grandmother’s house, for instance, [...]
Though it reminds me of work by one of my favorite artists, Tara Donovan can’t take any credit for this everyday-stuff-turned-art. It’s by a malfunctioning automatic dispenser which spat an entire roll of papertowel most carefully on a gray tiled bathroom floor.

Abbey should be excited about this post because it includes more photos from woodpiles in Vermont.
These amazing birch logs at my Father-in-law’s (also named Bob) have turned all metallic and pealing beautiful. You might remember my other photos of his woodpile which have made their way around my blog block.
This photo taken by BobDad (that’s easier to type) is of his parents’ wood pile. It’s a good illustration of their overall well-stocked and organized home.
And while we’re on the subject of stacks, this is a vertical collection of floral patterned mattresses back at BobDad’s.
