Ideas for design are everywhere if we look.....on a recent beach walk I took these pictures and just loved the shapes and pattern.  I store these things in my head and on the computer.....but alas that is more or less it!  I am not good at settling down with a design idea and seeing a project through.  My spontaneous way of working and reliance on serendipity always seem to win!!  Had a great day yesterday and went to visit my friend Jenny in her gorgeous shop Handmade Happiness in Petersfield.  If ever you are in that part of the world you must go....also visit her blog ...... everything in the shop is made by local artists - there are so many clever people out there.  Have a good day!
