My good friend Leigh Adams, one of the infamous “Mosaic Mafia” pointed out this story today so I thought I’d share it with all of you. It’s for the mosaic folk and fine art lovers out there. The National Gallery of Art will be installing the Chagall Mosaic Mural that was donated by Evelyn Nef upon her passing. Marc Chagall worked in many mediums and created the mosaic for his good friends John and Evelyn Nef for their garden at their home in Georgetown. The work is 10′ x 17′ and is just gorgeous!

Etsy Spotlight – The Thomas Boys Shirt Sewing Pattern
This week in our Etsy Spotlight Series, we’re loving the timeless charm of the Thomas Shirt Sewing Pattern for boys. This versatile button-up pattern is perfect for every occasion—from backyard playdates to weddings and special celebrations.
We think this pattern really shines when paired with fun, bold prints—think quirky florals, vintage cars, tropical vibes, or even festive Christmas fabrics! It’s a fantastic way to let your fabric stash shine while creating something practical and adorable.
This pattern is a must-have for any sewing parent or grandparent. The design is polished enough for formal wear (wedding shirt, anyone?) but still comfy and easygoing for everyday use.
Tip: Try sewing it up in linen or lightweight cotton for summer, or use flannel for a cozy winter version.
Whether you’re sewing for your own kids or making gifts, the Thomas Shirt sewing pattern is a classic that’ll be on repeat.
