Around the World Blog Hop!: SK Edition
Two SK blog posts within one 24-hour period? Without paying or naming your first born after me? I know. And you’re welcome. This time, it’s my rendition of the Around the World Blog Hop! Yep, yep, I too was clueless about this phenomenon until my lovely creative cohort Cynthia Frenette tagged me. And now here I am,…
Summer Redux
Hellooooooooooo. Remember me? I know, I know. Well, here’s the abbreviated gist: I’m working on my first book! Yup, you heard me right. Although it seems like I’ve fallen off the face of the earth (er, is that what that breeze is?), I’ve actually been fully consumed with creating and writing and creating some more. It’s…

Hey, hey, did you hear about the great Modern Traditional Mini Quilt Challenge announced yesterday over at Timeless Treasures and Dear Stella? If you thought you might enter but don’t have just the right Timeless Treasures fabric to add to your Mini Quilt entry, not to worry because here’s where I save the day like the…
No Foolin’: Recent Sewing Projects
Firstly, Happy April Fools’ Day. Secondly, I have no pranks for you today. Sold out of them yesterday and getting restocked tomorrow, so today, you’re just plain outta luck. Sorry. Now on to more interesting things… Here’s another bunch o’ stuff I’ve been up to recently. I figured it would be nice to post these…
WIP: Halloween Costume Beginnings
This is what happens when you completely sidetrack from everything else you’re working on and decide you need to get a headstart on at least one of your kids’ Halloween costumes while simultaneously using up fabric scraps that you basically hate. See, I’m that person that does not turn down a “Hey, I’ve got a…
WIP Glimpse
Here’s a tiny glimpse of something I’ve been working on recently! A pretty epic undertaking that kept ballooning…getting bigger and bigger with more detail and more detail… It was a lot of work but totally fun to make; I’ll show you it in it’s finished form once it’s ready! 🙂
Multiple Versions
When I’m thinking about a theme to morph into a textile pattern, I usually stick with my first idea. That’s often best because I can all too easily come up with multiple concepts or styles to illustrate a subject (a good and a bad thing sometimes). Although only one of those ideas will typically see…
Taking Breaks
When you’re busy working on projects and need a break, what do you do? If you’re me, you’ll consider eating chocolate like it’s a qualifying round for the next Olympics, possibly take a nap because the baby needs one and you need to keep him warm (even if it’s summertime), or do more work, but…
What’s Messier: My Studio or My Mind?
I think it’s a tie. Nope, nope, actually, I think SK Brain wins for Most Messiest Possession. I have so much going on at the moment that I can’t think straight. Designs and projects and emails and whatever else I need to keep up with. My studio isn’t in top shape yet either. *Collective gasp.*…
Weekend WIP
As the US goes into a long holiday weekend, (I don’t get one this week but will instead be trying to play catch up; don’t most of us?), I thought I’d share a quick glimpse of a WIP I’m currently tinkering with… Somebody seems a bit sour about something, wouldn’tcha say? I’d steer clear until…
