M+C
C was the first friend of Nik’s I was introduced to. It was at his little house behind a house in Portland, and he served Thai food on bright orange plates. Towards the end of the evening, C took a little break from socializing to call M. His voice was sweeter, and his grin was wider.

A month ago, C married M!! Nik and I joined in the celebration, and as a token of our excitement, Nik gave a speech that made them laugh and I made a blanket to keep them warm. The blanket was inspired by the letterpress pattern on their invitations and the colors of M’s bridesmaid dresses.
