Happy Friday + Making Magazine

November 18, 2016

Happy Friday! This image was shot by the amazingly talented Carrie Hoge of Madder Made and Making Magazine. Don’t you just love the neutral calmness of it all? Carrie and I are completely on the same page aesthetically, and when she asked if I would contribute to FAUNA, the second issue of Making… well, the answer was obvious. Just look at this stunning cover:

I just received my copy of the magazine and it’s beautiful and charming and full of inspiring and accessible projects. Love it. FAUNA is now available in her shop and at selected locations!! Making the little tooth fairy pillow felt like a second chance since my attempt at a fox version for Sewing Happiness was a funny flop that I ended up loving enough to include in the book as a “dwox” (dog+wolf+fox hybrid).

I’m actually working on another post that’s coming up on Sunday, so I have to get back to that, but stay tuned. It was so so so lovely to dive into sewing and playing with fabric and experimenting. More soon!

Petit a petit
The block party continues
See you on Sunday!

Have a refreshing weekend, all!

Coming soon!! Actually, many things are happening Coming soon!! Actually, many things are happening so you’ll probably see me around here more, but for now: this dress!! I designed this super comfy, very easy tiered summer number (with pockets, natch). I taught a class with @creativebug to show you how to draft and make one too. June 25th!! That’s when the class drops — so excited! I’ve made five so far and they’re hot weather staples. ☀️☀️☀️☀️ in the meantime, I hope you’ll check out all the amazing classes on @creativebug!
