It may have taken me 15 hours, a lot of trial and error, and many texts to sewy friends, but I created a pattern and made this classic black t-shirt 🧵 🪡

I just found these handmade gemstone stitch markers in a random box and completely forgot I made them!

A fabric (& yarn) rehoming is an emotional event for a crafter! It sounds silly but there is a lot tied to these fabrics we source and hoard. We had high hopes and wistful dreams for each bundle that came through the door! But why didn’t we get to that project? So many reasons, the main being “life” 🤷🏻‍♀️

To not put these beautiful fabrics to good use is a greater pain for me than having them take up space on my shelves, so the time has come, time to re-home! I hope you find something you love in “fabric” highlights! ♥️

The more of my studio I go through, the harder of a time I am going to have letting things go! These hot packs have my heart without a doubt. I love the different tones from dyeing with avocado pits + saving vintage (high quality!!) linens from their doom + using shibori dyeing techniques! These are a mash up of everything I love.

These hot packs are filled with 2-3+ lbs of cherry pits & walnut shells (gold standard for fill!). To use, warm them in the microwave for 3-5minutes with a splash of water and have the most amazing bed warmer or therapy pack for those aches and pains!

Found some GEMS while going through the studio! 💎

I love making jewelry! My sister bought me my first jewelry making kit for my birthday when I was like 8! I used to want to be a gemologist and went as far as applying to the GIA for a gemology degree. Not sure why the flying f*ck I decided to be an accountant instead, but c’est la vie!

In an effort to duplicate past colors I have been creating swatches with formulas … definitely harder than you’d think to find colors past, especially when most of the product has left my hands 🎨
