Marimekko inspiration!

Sorry it's taken me a while to show you some pages from the Marimekko book. I'm not usually a person of routine or rules
but when it comes to the written /photographed page that's a different matter.
I am a bit Sheldon Cooper when it comes to books and magazines. There I've admitted it.
I have to have a quiet space, with no distractions or noise.....
I need to look carefully at and savour each page.....
I love the surprise and anticipation of the next page.....
If I find myself getting too excited and turning the pages too quickly I put the book down and do something else.....
I don't mind someone else looking at the book or magazine before me so long as they don't show me what's in it......
and of course I couldn't show you photos from it before I'd properly looked at it myself could I?
Is anyone else like this about books or other things I wonder?
The book is pure joy and inspirational with patterns in the bag for some of the projects and interviews with the designers.
Here are just a few pages from it I hope you find them interesting too :)

 

  

Do you love Marimekko?

Yippee! Look what arrived in the post today. May not get to work on time.... sorry Jen I'll be there soon.
I posted about this book before when I saw it on someone else's blog. I tried to get it from the Marimekko shop in Shoreditch
when we went to London last week but they had sold out and were getting more in so I ordered one and it came  superfast!
with a lovely flower sticker on the parcel.
Will save it as a treat to look at later. expect more peeks inside.

Wishing for summer !!

Some lovely things brought back by Mr D from his trip to Sweden. I'm kind of hoping he did get me this book which I hinted about very strongly and even wrote down the addresses of where to look for it. Will have to wait till the 25th!!!!
