Just a little blast of spring color love from one of my favorite artists of all time: Over on the Erica Wilson Nantucket Facebook Page, they have been occasionally posting photos of needlework from Erica Wilson’s private collection.
So beautiful. So inspiring. Thank you, Erica Wilson Nantucket, for giving me the permission to show these images on the blog. Repeat: Keep up with all the new/old Erica Wilson on the Erica Wilson Nantucket Facebook page.

I just found 2 very similar items in my dad’s house. I am guessing my grandmother made them, but I don’t remember seeing them at her house. As soon as I saw them, I knew I needed to keep them. My sister looked at me like I was nuts and said “Uh. Yeah. You can keep those.”

I could swear I actually did a kit of that blue owl when I was about eight years old….

That reminds me of my Erica Wilson crewel project that is still unfinished from the late 80s. I better get on that.
