apples & aquamarine & chevron



Some new pieces for the shop. The chevron navy and rust picnic blanket is a new favorite. Sometimes we collect vintage pieces of fabric and odds and ends that we're not sure about - and sometimes they turn out so beautifully when they are properly sewn up.


This bag is made with soft, textured organic beige canvas, It's an ode to Johnny Appleseed.




Haven't listed this last picnic blanket yet - it's Marimekko, a reprint from 1965 we bought from Finland. So very gender neutral (refreshing!) and just right for an autumn picnic.

What are your favorite autumn picnic foods?

  2. These make me want to go apple and pumpking picking! Love them :) I'd like to eat a big hunk of pumpkin bread on one of the blankets!

  3. Thank you! I'll definitely have a (big) piece of that pumpkin bread... that reminds me about a wonderful pumpkin muffin recipe I've made, from a REBAR cookbook (a wonderful vegetarian restaurant in Victoria, B.C)... hmmm...

  4. The chevron blanket is insanely cool! And you know? I've never had a picnic in autumn. We ate applesauce in the park today, does that count? ;)
