Wax Print Pyrmont Skirt

A fun project just in time for Ankara Appreciation Week, hosted by Lena King and Juliet Uzor.

Crinkle Cotton Slub Sydney Designer Dress

It's summer dress season, folks! It's the time of year that I want to be wearing a lot of fabric that never really touches my body in any way. 

Happy Feet Quilted Sneakers

 Recently I took a fun day-long workshop at a local-ish quilt shop, Quilter's Corner: quilted sneaker making!

Turns out it's difficult to take photos of shoes on your own feet!

Ruby Overalls for Wario

Style Arc Zalia Top

And now, a series of unusually purple-y garments...

Waxed Canvas Akerfeldt Coat

Knit Things Round-up

Long time, no see! It's been a wild few months over here, not near my sewing machine. My mom had a major health emergency that we dubbed The Nightmare Before Christmas, so I have been away from home helping her. She’s recovering well, though!  Here are a few things I've been working on…
