It's Freckles.

Randomly clicking links through one blog and into another, as I am wont to do in the evenings, I came across a post about a line of fabrics and wallpapers designed by Quentin Blake. Be still, my heart! Everyone already knows how much I love these two things, but do they also know how much I love Quentin Blake?!
I learned to read when I was pretty young, and there was no keeping my nose out of books after that. Some of my favorites (in the whole world!) were Roald Dahl books. I used to get a new one or two for every birthday or Christmas. The stories were, of course, awesome, but the Blake illustrations that went along with them brought them to life in a whole different way. There was so much life and movement in those pictures. Hilarious pictures that were so evocative of the hilarious words they went with. 
As much as I loved those books, I think my first exposure to Blake was the fantastic Dr. Seuss book Great Day For Up.

                        
Such a great book!

        
Fabric from the British site Fabrics&Papers

        
Look at that happy dog! Those lumpy frogs!

   
Also, did I mention I love tea? These are from another English site McGlaggen-Smith

                 
Gasp! Wrapping paper!! (Although I don’t approve of their tape job…)

All of these super things can be found through Blake’s own website, and damn it, I can’t find a single one outside the British Isles. Maybe I should make a few small requests of my parents…
