Through each stitch, I discovered my love for textiles and the incredible artists behind them. They brought color, meaning, and purpose back into my life. 🌈💖 Now, three and a half years later, this...

A little personal update... We are all human, and we go through challenges together. While the shop is incredibly important to me, my family is too.

I don't write fabric requirements for FPP patterns, as I tend to make them with scraps, however, this pattern needs a lot of background fabric. I happened to have 1/4 yard of black Ruby Star Society "Acroma" fabric that was left over from another project that I used for the background here, and it was plenty,...
