My friend Åsa Dahlbäck makes the loveliest patterns. A while ago I had the honor to photograph her Master’s degree project. Blogged here and here. Now several of her patterns are availble as wallpapers, at Photowall. Look here and here!

Do you remember “Makkara Piruetti”, one of our most beloved books in the book shelf, blogged here. The illustrator, Matti Pikkujämsä has such has such a good sense for details and whole. I called for his web page, I still don’t think he have one but I did get a message about his work for Kauniste. Handprinted textiles in Finland. Great looking kitchen towels by Matti and Leena Kisonen, see more work by Leena here. These are sketches by Matti and paper cuttings by Leena, the mushroom towel by Matti. See the other towels here.


Something happens when you blow up textile/weave details like this. Beautiful, isin´t it.
There is a lot of huck weaving on internet, here for example.
