Heirloom Quilt

by rosedeniz April 10, 2009 nesting

Tweet My diversion of the day has been to play around with fabric swatches in order to piece together the remainder of an unfinished quilt handed down to me by my grandmother. The squares were made by my grandfather’s mother. This is what one quilt block looks like: Originally I was thinking to use variations […]

Two hearts have wed

by rosedeniz March 31, 2009 nesting

Tweet My dear friend Catherine braved the perils of Illustrator to create this gorgeous wedding celebration invitation. Not a designer by trade, we talked about some details together, but she mastered it entirely on her own. Commissioning the sacred heart artwork from Corrina Orrico, they reworked it a couple times, and I love how the […]

So long, farewell

by rosedeniz January 29, 2009 design

Tweet Now, more than ever before, do we get the opportunity to reflect on how interconnected everything is. When one thing slips, everything tumbles. Sorry for the cliche visual.

by rosedeniz January 18, 2009 design

Tweet If other people plan their blog posts, I’m more of a fly by night blogger; when I see something that gets my attention I share it. Typically it is something that lands in my inbox with bright and pretty colors, so when I started receiving Etsy’s Get The Look email, it dawned on me […]

Happy New Year

by rosedeniz December 31, 2008 nesting

Tweet A little collage from some favorite things from 2008… a red journal in which I’ve been writing short stories, Topi and Lina in their favorite outfits, discovering my mother’s unused sewing machine cover in a box in my childhood home, a trip to The Henry Ford in Detroit, and lovely little tags by Bluebird […]

Back Home

by rosedeniz December 30, 2008 nesting

Tweet I’ve flown over the ocean and back, and am now awake at 3am reading design*sponge, clearing out my inbox and lamenting the fact that I have nothing involving pictures to blog about. My photos from our trip are all on a CD that I lent to my father-in-law because he took literally 100s of […]

Apartment 9 In Progress

by rosedeniz October 30, 2008 nesting

Tweet I might not surface for a few days because we are moving this weekend, so there is no better time to show you just what we’ve been up to in our new apartment. It’s 10pm and I’m exhausted but can’t sleep properly, and during the daytime I’m making mental lists, real lists, and running […]
