I bought this book, Last-Minute Patchwork & Quilted Gifts, last week after my patchwork class at Gather Here. I can’t wait to start making projects from it!

The Smitten Kitchen Cookbook came out last week! It’s so inspiring to see how a thoughtful, creative food blog became so popular was transformed into a beautiful cookbook. I cannot wait to buy this book and make everything in it.

As you know, the presidential election is tomorrow. I know it’s a little last minute but if you’re looking for facts on where the candidates stand on issues, who is running on your state/local ballot, or what the ballot questions are in your state, I highly recommend clicking those links.

I recently ordered prints of my Instagram pictures through PostalPix. They have a few size options but I got the 4″x4″ squares and I really like them! They are printed on glossy photo paper and feel like the real deal. I can’t wait to order more!

I tried to pick just one entry from Curbly but I couldn’t. Every craft project on their site is amazing. You should check them out!

I’m obsessed with this documentary called Portrait: A Documentary on Instagram and Photography which explores the question: “In the age of Instagram, what sets a professional photographer apart?” It’s a beautiful look at the creative process, how the eye of a photographer can bee seen through any medium, and how our surroundings can inspire brilliant every day photography.
