Sometimes they get it right

Sometimes Target gets it right.  Have you seen this great casual dinnerware set beoig marketed for the college set?

They are the right kind of plastic for dishwasher and microwave use!  Plus look at the great colors and patterns!  It looks like a quilt I should make.

Some pieces have these cool record and cassette tape details.

And some cool black geometrics.

They have melamine trays and bambo servers and matching silverware.

I bought some to use at work.  Im tired of ugly microwaveable dishes.

Anyway just thought I would share the retro and hst loveliness.

Its called Amish Star Power.  I'm from PA and have always been influenced by their quilts and use of color.  I wanted a twist on a traditional Sawtooth star pattern with a bolder and more modern color pallete.  I also wanted a block that would stand out in a large format on the side of the barn.

Im the first in the 11th row.  Please vote for me by liking me!  Pass the word!  Get your friends to vote!
