Lately I've been obsessed with the beautiful fusion of typography and embroidery. Embroidery is such an old-fashioned technique, but I think each of these samples shows how modern and stylin' it can be. My design aesthetic has always leaned towards a mix of clean/simple/modern with a handmade quality, so these samples are right up my alley. It's got me dreaming of candy-colored embroidery floss, burlap and wooden hoops. I think a weekend trip to Hobby Lobby is in order, yes?
PS- Wondering what happened to my #Reverb11 / #WEverb11 project? Well, I'm basically weaning myself off of the Reverb prompts {although I might do one or two more if the muse strikes}. Much like last year, I feel like I get to a point where all that reflecting isn't doing enough good for me and can make me sad about all that I didn't achieve. Plus, I worry that it's getting boring to read my prompt responses everyday. So, instead of over-reflecting, I'm working on manifesting the year ahead. I've pulled out the Joy Equation guide and I'm finishing up weeks 3 and 4 of the program, which are focused on cultivating powerful habits and committing to your happiness-- perfect for my desire to look towards the year ahead. I'm keeping this process to my paper journals right now, but I'll be sure to share my big goals as we get closer to the new year.
