…how are you doing? It’s been a few days since I’ve written on here and the little break has been refreshing :) On Christmas Eve we packed our bags and flew from Los Angeles to Detroit. It was such an easy day of travel, and I’m sooooo thankful. We had a direct flight, and on… [Read More]

Maxwell and his supervisor.

December 17, 2013 · 13 Comments
Filed Under: Maxwell, the pup

So, this pretty much sums up our lives right now. Maxwell is into EVERY.THING and basically needs to be supervised at all seconds of every moment. I’ve found that anything cardboard (an empty paper towel roll or an empty bolt of fabric) is super cool in his book, as well as my metal whisk from… [Read More]

Filed Under: inspiration, sewing

It’s been an embarrassingly long time since I last made something for myself, and an even more embarrassingly long time since I last sewed something for myself. Our Christmas tree skirt this year?
