🌧️
A few bolts of shot cotton, a pop of color on a rainy, chilly day. Lighter weight and soft, there is a secondary color "shot" through the weave which gives a solid color more depth.

Wolf Peach 🍅
S. lycopersicum

I recently acquired this gorgeous velvet tomato pincushion. A steady companion to its owner through years of care, repair, and creativity.

Tomato pincushions are simple and ubiquitous, yet entirely personal and unique. The world wide web has plenty of origin story lore on repeat, from werewolf deterrent to luck magnet, but citations are scarce! Peppermint Magazine has a good read: https://peppermintmag.com/the-case-of-the-tomato-pincushion/

(Not for sale ❤️ but you can visit it anytime here where there's a small but growing tomato pin-poppet archive)

Check out the exhibitions at the Zillman Art Museum!

Grab a coffee, tea, candy, food!
