It’s kind of wild what a difference a simple frame can make ✨Watching each Little Bug Club blocks come to life with these borders… suddenly they feel like they belong together 🥹

Also a reminder of what 30 minutes of uninterrupted sewing can do (rare, but magical when it happens 😅) These are all coming together into a throw-size quilt and I honestly can’t wait to see the full picture 🐞

It’s been a while since I sewed something just for me, and as soon as I got my hands on yardage of my Picking Berries print (from the Summer Homestead collection with ), I had to make this Box Top Dress.

There’s something so full-circle about wearing a print you designed 🥹 This one is one of five prints I created for the collection, and seeing it come to life in garment form makes me love it even more.

It feels surreal to say that our second collaborative fabric collection with the Sewcial Bee Collective is here 🐝✨

Summer Homestead is a celebration of late summer’s golden glow—filled with bold geometrics, soft florals, yummy produce, and those sweet memories of homegrown abundance that bring warmth and joy to your sewing.

And honestly… the timing couldn’t be more perfect because this collection has spring written all over it 🌸

There are 25 prints total (including a dreamy 108” wide back that’s perfect for quilt backs and quilty fashion 👀)

Here’s a little zoom-in of the prints I designed—tell me, which one is your fave? 👀
The jam jars one was middle of the pack for me… until I saw it in person. Now it’s 100% my favorite 🍓

The school year is coming to an end, and I honestly can’t believe Theo is just about done with his very first year of school 🥹

What started as a special piece to mark the year he was born has grown into something so meaningful to me—and to so many of you. This annual milestone flag has become one of the staples in my shop over the past two years, and it’s been so special seeing how you’ve used it to celebrate your own moments 🤍

Introducing the 2026 Milestone Flag ✨
A simple, meaningful FPP project to mark life’s milestones—whether it’s a graduation, welcoming a new baby, or celebrating a moment you never want to forget.

The 2024 and 2025 versions are still available too—so you can start (or continue!) your own tradition.
