Oh dear, I just read on Wikipedia that Eva Zeisel died yesterday.  Since design school, I have been in love with her work and find myself a little choked up at the news of her death.  Yes, she was 105 years old and yes, she lived a varied and (seemingly) exciting life, but still.  One of the world's stars went out yesterday.

Also, yes, I am still alive.  I'm *this* close to finishing the argyle vest and only news of this magnitude could tear me away from it.  Husband's birthday is imminent and I want to have something to offer as a gift.  I shall return with an update shortly.
