marimekko

i first saw marimekko fabrics on an episode of martha stewart years ago. i loved the big, bold prints. i only vaguely remembered the designer and her name was even more fuzzy in my memory. but one day, while in seattle, i stumbled across a fantastic little scandinavian shop called tuuli. and lo and behold! merimekko came flooding back to my concious mind. they sell clothes, dishes, fabric, accessories, and baby clothes. one day i will own something marimekko. until then, i will just occassionally peruse the website.
