Oh my cats I love that.

Ali: That's some nice type design! I recently read Thining with Type (Lupton) which re-awakened my love for pure, well-designed text. Also, thank you for the great resource. As a newby, I had not heard of Somerset. Always a pleasure. Molly

I live accross the road from the house where this hymn was written.
I love the words and what they mean and have wanted to get them into a scrapbook somehow. I might have to use your photo!!

wow. i love the front page of the living section. might have to try and get my hands on one of those to frame. awesome.

I would love to see what you come up with for a "spirit" album. It's awesome that the newspaper put the lyrics on there.

I sung this song when I took lyrical song courses years ago (I was tenor).
Another time, with a gospel teacher who sometimes sung with the Golden Gate Quartet (I admired them when I was a little gal), we sung some other songs as "he's got a little babe in his hands, he's got a little little babe, in his hands, lalalalaaa"...
we were touched so deep into our heart to sing this without any music, wow!
I'd like to find another song course like this.
Oh my, and somerset...ohlalaaaaaaaaa!!!

I'll have to bookmark this post. The print on your newspaper is a great inspiration generator! I'm getting ideas already! TFS!

Very cool typework... I love that vintage look, it's kind of "unschooled" yet so right.

oh i love keri!...those 'skins' she made are so great...& the oregonian...what can you say about it?...always way cool stuff...hope a bit of that will rub off on it's crazy cousin the RG:)

Wow, that newspaper is just beautiful - thanks for sharing! Seeing Simon chatting with Kathy is too much!

I got all excited there for a minute that a new Somerset Studio was out, but alas, I already have that one! There should be a new one in a couple of weeks though. I always haunt their website when the next one is due out, even though it then takes a couple of weeks to reach us in Australia.
That type design of Amazing Grace is fantastic, I agree. Looks great!

#1 time that I ever heard this hymn?
At my cousin's wedding on the bagpipes - magnificient!

cool.
Love to Simon chat w/ Cathy. Are those his special Cathy glasses?

Just a note to say I'm thinking of you today. And hope you are well. Your blog has been a lovely relaxing read for me this afternoon.
Cheers,
Shawnnita

now that looks so incredible good and love those words!

Wow...I have to get my hands on that piece of paper. What great words...and what an extraordinary design with type....gotta love the combination. Thanks so much for sharing -- as always, I walk away inspired. Peace and productivity to you for this week -- I know there are lots of things on your shoulders.

We participated in this at our church today - So lovely to sing and praise and to know others ALL ACROSS the WORLD are doing the same -- supposed to also be a movie coming out on Friday entitled of course "Amazing Grace"

Thank you for sharing...that is just amazing :) Have a very blessed day!!!

Gives me chills (in a good sort of way). BTW, I love your new banner -- cool!

Ali,
yup this is a great type design! i love it as well!
I was not aware that you lived in oregon...As i just started following your blog not to long ago. Oregon is my old stomping ground...I grew up in boring, Oregon and my whole family still lives out there in various cities. I was just out there for chtistmas... :)
I'm loving your blog as i check it often(i don;t always comment though) and as so many do find you ver inspirational!
Thanks for sharing and have a great day!!

I love that song. It gives me chills up and down my spine when ever I hear it and I always tear up.
I got my Somerset earlier this week and totally thought of you when I was reading the Keri Smith article. Glad to see that you get the magazine and already got a chance to read through it!
Hope you had a great weekend!
:-)

Cool. My youngest daughter's middle name and she considers Amazing Grace her song. : )

We sang this today at our service, too... thanks for sharing, I would have been unaware of this otherwise... I find a lot of inspiration on your site and through your work! Thanks!

Ali-
Noticed that you posted about the Autism special on 60 minutes tonight. Home Makeover (ABC at 8pm EST) is also building a new home for an Autistic family tonight (5 of their children are autistic!). Just thought you might want to check it out....

This is awesome!! Glad to see the media highlight this...we celebrated Amazing Grace Sunday in our church today...an amazing song that never ever loses its meaning.
