News photographer Mikael Buck, who lives in London, used a lens attachment, tripod and his smartphone to capture the beauty of insects and frosty leaves.
One of my fondest memories as a child was racing across the beach, dodging the giant waves in search of striking shells and rocks. There is something magnificent about finding a rock hidden in the ground that hasn't been unearthed for hundreds of years. Unfortunately, the beauty of rocks and minerals found in the ocean doesn't last long; it recedes as the water evaporates from the rock. With a quick rinse of water, the beauty and memories come rushing back, and you are reminded of those moments once again. I wanted to capture that feeling of amazement and mystery I had as a child collecting rocks. Staring down at the abundance of texture, wondering how something so beautiful could be created. Nowadays, we tend to overlook the hidden details nature has to offer. This project was created to show people beauty is everywhere; sometimes, we just have to take a closer look.

Meet Granny Patch! A modern patchwork take on the traditional crocheted granny square. . I've had this design in my head and drafted on my computer for a few years now. I've played with it a little here and a little there and I decided last fall that this would be the first Lo & Behold pattern of 2023. Better yet, we would officially release it on my Granny's birthday, March 15th. This cozy, vintage inspired quilt evokes all the warm nostalgic feelings and is probably one of my favorite recent Lo & Behold quilt patterns. :) It's a mix and match type pattern so you have lots of opportunity to create different combinations and have fun with it. You're going to love sewing this together! . One thing that I love about Granny Patch (if I do say so myself) is that the blocks are strip pieced, meaning you are NOT dealing with individual squares of fabric. Instead, you're sewing strips together in a certain order then cutting them apart to create the rows of your blocks. (Can I get an amen??) There are also nesting seams so you don't have to fuss or stress about everything perfectly lining up as you are sewing. It really is a fun block to assemble! . . . I don't know about you, but I always love seeing crocheted afghans and blankets folded up on the back of a chair or at the foot of a bed. I wish I could say that I had an heirloom afghan that inspired this quilt, but after watching all seasons of Parks & Rec about 10 times, seeing one on the back of Ann's couch over and over definitely made me fall in love with the granny square. Then when we moved to Black Mountain and started leasing studio space above the Black Mountain Yarn Shop, I found myself surrounded by even more granny squares, which got me that much more excited about having a
