Knits for Christmas 2010
For Christmas this year I did a bit of knitting. For my sister Nina and my brother in law Damien I made his and hers scarves with personalized embroidery. For Joe I made a beer cozy featuring his favorite football team, Penn State. It is more successful at keeping his hand cozy than his beer, but a bottle sure looks handsome in a turtleneck.
The Royal School of Needlework Certificated Course Studies
I spent the month of July 2010 at Hampton Court Palace learning new skills with The Royal School of Needlework. I studied Jacobean crewel work (left) and silk shading (right). It was an amazing experience; I met so many fantastic artisans. I look forward to completing my certificate next summer when I return.
NickCasey – Allegheny Morning Sky
I designed the album cover and poster for NickCasey’s 2006 album Allegheny Morning Sky. Dark, honest lyrics, bluesy rock and folk melodies, their music is both classic and fresh. Check them out at nickcaseymusic.com
