I came across the work of Karen from Eco Inspired on the DUST forum and was instantly taken by the striking simplicity of her work. I love the beautiful colours in her range, not to mention the fact she uses eco-friendly fibres.
From her profile: “I screen-print nature/coastal inspired designs onto hemp/organic cotton canvas. The fabric is available to be purchased by the fat quarter or larger quantities by yardage.”
Karen also sews a selection of homewares from her fabrics for her shop.
I found this lovely new blog via Whitney. Oh my! Handmade Goodness describes itself as “a community for independent children’s retailers & the hip parents who support them” but the blog also focuses on helping small business.
The blog features a lovely, clean design and their posts on “what we know for sure” are a fantastic read for small business operators. This site promises to be a great resource.

Hubby and I celebrated our wedding anniversary this weekend where the traditional gift was steel. As we both like to cook, I surprised him with some pans from the Scanpan range. I expect him to be cooking up a storm in the near future. So today, steel yourself {ha, ha} because sunday zest is all about gifts to celebrate that milestone.
Another round-up of interesting tidbits from the www this week.
ps. 74 Lime Lane reached 500 posts and there is a little giveaway to celebrate here. And in a moment of numeric serependity, Jess became the 1500th commenter!
Today marks a milestone here at 74 Lime Lane ~ 500 posts. This is number 500 and to celebrate I’m going to giveaway a little surprise package. Mainly a surprise because I don’t know what maybe in it yet, but also a surprise because I think i will tailor it to the winner as well. But it will include some photos {natch} and perhaps some linens, and some other goodies I found while cleaning out the linen closet. Maybe a magazine. Whatever it is, it will {hopefully} be a lovely little package for the winner to receive.
All you have to do is leave a comment here to go in to the random.org draw. But also to celebrate, I have included a little download of a pdf of two notecards with the above photo on them. Just print, trim and fold. Get them here.
