a little inspiration

while mooning over some pretty workspaces over at martha, i came across a house tour of joelle hoverson's brooklyn apartment. 

this office nook is the perfect mix of clean neutrals with rainbow hits of colour to keep you inspired while working. check out the spools of thread on the middle shelf. love that.

and of course, there's her fabric stash. i'm a sucker for stacked, folded + colour-coded fabrics.

joelle owns Purl and Purl Patchwork in new york. such a fresh aesthetic [both online and brick + mortar]. just look at those shelves of fabric. *sigh*

Last Minute Patchwork + Quilted Gifts [joelle's book] is one of my favourites for sewing inspiration. it also has fantastic photo styling. someday i hope to tackle this quilt. for now i'll continue with my quest for the perfect workspace.
