Inspirations

We went to Continental Corner, a Greek restaurant in Summerville, SC, for our Sunday lunch. I had rice pilaf with scallops and shrimp, fruit cup, and spicey sweat tea. I shared a baklava sundae with the hubby. On the way back to the car, I spotted a couple of 'design inspirations'. 

A manhole cover.

 

Grill and bricks around a tree. 

 

And an owl. 

 

Ok, not quite what you may have expected, but it's on her shirt. 

May God bless your weekend,

An Inspiration Piece

I saw this at the Prosperity's Hoppin' Festival on Saturday. If I had a place for it, it would be mine!

I asked for permission to photograph it and she was more than kind. So, I'm going to also put up a pic of her business card as a thank you. 

 

 

 

The piece made me think of all those lovely single pieces of cut glass that get passed down from one generation to the next. Wouldn't this be a unique way of displaying several pieces?  I didn't ask if she did commission work, but it is something I will keep in mind. 

I also am inspired to make a quilt using blocks with names like pickle dish, grandmother's fan, Dresden plate, etc. It may have to wait. I want to finish more of what is already in process. 

Time for me to go,
