This year the Easter Bunny is officially* trading This year the Easter Bunny is officially* trading in his pastel palette for Scandinavian-inspired blues and greys. *(100% not official). I’ve partnered with my pals at @spoonflower to set the Sunday brunch table with a simple step-by-step tutorial for no-sew egg cosies that coordinate beautifully with their @roosteryhome linens. You’ll find the how-to (complete with downloadable templates!) on the #Spoonflower blog - link in my bio. ✨🐣✨ And to get you in the making mood, may I suggest tearing into that bag of jelly beans and heading over to the #Spoonflower🐰 marketplace to start browsing fabric patterns!  BONUS: Save 15% off your next order of 1+ yards of fabric, rolls of wallpaper or home decor on Spoonflower with code DIYEASTER15 February 24 - April 1, 2020. ❤️
A little happy mail from this past week! ✨📬✨ Delighted to have been gifted a zipper pouch with some home state pride. Love a thoughtful homemade gift - thank you @lishdorset . ☺️❤️
Years ago I became a little obsessed with tie-dyin Years ago I became a little obsessed with tie-dying eggs (ie: transferring vintage silk tie patterns onto eggs.) ✨It’s a fun process that can yield magical results.✨ For a hot second (back in 2009!), I had an Etsy shop named Maude + Claude named after my paternal grandparents, where I sold Tie-Dye Egg Kits. I’m not bringing the kits back, nor do I currently sell them – BUT if you swipe left I AM sharing the front and back of the instruction card that accompanied those kits, giving you step-by-step instructions! #EasterEggs 👔🥚🐣🐥
As I like to emphasize in my workshops (and will r As I like to emphasize in my workshops (and will reiterate here) - when you’re embellishing an image printed on fabric - your stitches DON’T HAVE TO BE PERFECT TO MAKE A BIG IMPACT! Hand to heart, this is the truth. As a recovering perfectionist, I understand that you want your stem stitch to be stunning. Been there!  And with practice it will improve. ❤️✂️❤️ BUT here’s the thing (especially for the first time stitcher!) when you start with a gorgeously printed image on lovely fabric - you’ve already set yourself up for success - because even if your running stitch isn’t quite right, that charming photo 📸 (or vintage map 🗺 or anatomical imagery 💀) is going to give grace to your needlework and you’ll end up with a beautiful end result - every time. (✨steps off of soap box✨) To that end, if you’re interested in printing your own family photos on fabric - my wonderful colleagues @spoonflower have pulled together a thoughtful tutorial (including tips and tricks from yours truly) on how to successfully digitize and create a photo canvas of your very own. 🎉 Find the complete how to on the Spoonflower blog! blog.spoonflower.com

Hey creative campers! I’m packing my bags and he Hey creative campers! I’m packing my bags and heading north again to teach at @urbancraftuprising’s Camp Thundercraft, April 24th through the 26th. It’s a small business retreat on Vashon Island - just across the water from Seattle. This year my brilliant and talented friend @lisasolomon will be delivering the keynote and I’ll be teaching two hands-on workshops (Embroidering on the Photographic Image and Circular Weaving) alongside a number of talented colleagues. If you’re in the Pacific Northwest consider joining us for a weekend of workshops to hone your small business skills, learn new crafting techniques and connect with other creative makers.
