Hello friends and blog readers,

I come to you with some summer reflections and fall updates!

My first summer in the PNW has been full of swimming, sewing, and visits from friends and family.

I was a vendor at 2 big markets - Bend Handmade and Portland Pride.
Taught a few classes in both Portland and Seattle - we ice dyed beach towels!

This fall I am teaching a small handful of classes at Modern Domestic - take a look at what they have to offer and consider joining me on a sewing journey!

The quilt class is full but you can join me in a one-night visible mending venture, or spend 3 weeks learning the basics of foundation paper piecing (FPP)! FPP is a very fun way to get extremely precise shapes in quilting, which allows for itty bitty, detailed squares. We will learn the process and then make a pillow!

Also, I’ve got a little shop update! A few new upcycled safety vests and my full quilt coat stock have been added to the list. Check it out here . I really love making these vests and getting to add the small details to fix them up. I hope you enjoy them too. Similarly, each quilt has a little story to it, as most of the quilts and fabrics I use have some sort of connection to me. I tried to add some of those details in the listings~

Thanks for coming to my little space of the internet, and being interested in what I’m making! I’m happy to be here.
