Weekend Favorites

I’ve been off gallivanting a lot this week. And while this has spelled neglect for my own projects (and my house work in general), it doesn’t seem to have impacted my ability to flip through Instagram. Lots of pretty photos to look at. I still seem to be kind of stuck at the beach, though, as you may notice…

Images

The mosaic below represents other people’s pictures that spoke to me this week on Flickr and Instagram. Click on the titles below the mosaic to get a better look at the images and see more from the photographers who made them.

Here are a few interesting things from around the web that grabbed me this week:

  • Thousands of Albums. Completely Free. Completely Legal. – at NoiseTrade. Do you know about NoiseTrade? They’re a terrific source for new music. It’s all free! If you like it, you are encouraged to leave a donation for the artist, but it’s not required. My favorite thing to download is samplers that include a wide selection of artists – I’ve discovered some great new-to-me bands this way.
  • How to Choose Your Next EOS Camera – a detailed guide from The Andrew S. Gibson photography blog. My Canon DSLR is nearly 4 years old, and while it’s still working fine for me, I became curious this week as to what the next step would be if I wanted to replace it. This thorough guide to camera models and differences between them has pretty much confirmed for me that I should not upgrade at this time. My wallet is relieved. If you’re thinking about a new camera, you’ll want to read this.
  • Hey Loom Knitters, This One is For You! Loom Knit a Blanket with Good Knit Kisses – from Lion Brand Notebook. I’ll admit I’m not a big fan of loom-knit blankets in general, but the stitch pattern on this one is really nice. Plus, it looks like you can use the same pattern to make a wash cloth, if you’re not ready to commit to a blanket size just yet!
  • Pieced Napkins – a sewing project from The Purl Bee. You probably know I love LOVE using cloth napkins on a daily basis. You may not know, though, that I am pretty lazy when it comes to stitching them: the quicker and easier the better. That is why I will not be making these pieced napkins, but I do love the way they look and I hope a more patient sewist among you will whip of few of these up sometime 🙂

Have a great weekend!
