I’m going to spend some time over the next couple weeks updating the blog on some magazine projects I’ve had the privilege to create! Since there’s a new issue of Generation Q out now (featuring my friend Sara on the cover!), I figured it was about time to blog about the previous issue. Hah! Several…

Today, my friend RaeAnna is sharing all about a sweet gift she made for Elliot! It’s a bodysuit and pants set using the newborn line from Peek-a-Boo Patterns.    RaeAnna is participating in a pattern tour, and she asked if I could take some photos of this little guy modeling the outfit. But, of course!…

Today, I’m excited to share a project I created for the new book Kitchen Stitches, a sewing compilation of projects to make for everyone’s favorite room in the house.   I actually made three projects for this book, but I can only share one with you right now. The others may be featured in future…

On Tuesday, January 7th, I became a mom. Meet Elliot. He’s quite the looker, if I do say so myself. To say the delivery was rough would be an understatement. I had no idea that the little man inside of me would arrive into the world at a whopping 9 lbs. and 21 inches. I…

Are you ready for the holidays? I’m a couple weeks out from my due date, and have been trying to fit in some last-minute sewing projects before the baby arrives.   My local Modern Quilt Guild hosted a Secret Santa swap the other weekend, and I made this mini quilt for Stefanie. She loves Moda…

  I have another magazine project to share! Sometime last spring, just after we’d moved to Nashville, I submitted a purse design to Stitch magazine for their winter issue. I really love working with Stitch, because their design prompts are so interesting and they really get my creative juices flowing. The idea was to design…

I wanted to quickly share a project I made for Stitch Craft Create’s Gifts 2013 issue. Way back in January, I had a few sewing deadlines to meet before my husband and I packed up and moved from Indiana to Tennessee. This Sturdy Striped Tote was made with fabric I picked up at IKEA (clearance!)…

Yesterday, I got a package containing one of the nicest gifts I’ve ever received! It was a quilt-size box (what?!), and the shipping label said it was a package from my friend Sarah at Fabric Seeds. I know I’ve mentioned Sarah before, as she was one of the first blog friends I met in “real…

Hello! I hope you all had a happy Thanksgiving! I celebrated the holidays a little early with family, since Matt and I are now camping out at home to await the baby’s arrival. My due date is in early January, but we’re entering that window where you really don’t want to be far from home….
