Poland inspiration

This summer I travelled around Poland. It’s a really fascinating country with many of the beautiful town squares painstakingly rebuilt as they were before their destruction in World War 2. The pastel colours of the buildings were particularly inspiring.

The Neon Museum was one of the best places that we visited and the history of neon signs during communism was fascinating.

Food and drink was also a source of inspiration from the autumnal colour palette of the beer tasting platters to the traditional crochet table centre pieces.

Finally, the Solidarity Centre in Gdansk built on the site of the shipyards and out of weathered iron had some amazing textures (a photograph of textures is how Salt Stitches creates all her work).
