scraps

Unused bits and pieces from a stitching-- I'm kinda digging how it looks like a Stuart Davis.

I think I might be making this thing in the near future. Regardless of how well I set up my desks for stitching, I always end up working on the floor. Buy the original here at Design 'Within Reach' (not sure who's able to reach that price for a floor pillow) or go for the more sane option and make it yourself.

I was pretty into Milton Avery in college- but since then his monograph has sat on the shelf... Looking back at these is a bit of a treat. The palettes are incredible.
