A little style, a lot of love—here’s to the mo

A little style, a lot of love—here’s to the moms who keep us looking sharp and feeling seen. Happy Mother’s Day. ❤️

We had the pleasure of joining friends last weeken

We had the pleasure of joining friends last weekend for a butter and cheese-making class with the renowned Sheana Davis and Ben Sessions of The Epicurean Connection. While Sonoma Valley is best known for its world-class wines🍷, dairy has long played a vital role in the region’s agricultural heritage🧀. It was a joy to be students for the day—learning just how simple (and satisfying) it can be to make delicious cheese from scratch, and leaving with the tools and inspiration to keep creating at home!

I’m a big fan of my friend Cathe Holden—as I know many of you are, too! And I’m so delighted she’ll be joining me this September for my Well Crafted Sonoma creative retreat, where she’ll be guiding participants through the creation of this champignon hand-stitched woodland coat. 🍄🏆We’re leaning into autumnal vibes with our retreat projects, and the cozy charm of Cathe’s design leaves mushroom for personalization. Coordinating classes and activities for this special week in my hometown has quickly become my creative focus this spring—and I can’t wait to share more! ❤️ (Do I think funghi puns are funny? Morel less. 😆🤪)

This past Saturday the @sonomacommunitycenter held

This past Saturday the @sonomacommunitycenter held their 15th annual Trashion Fashion Runway Show - a celebration of creativity, community and sustainability. 🙌 This spectacular annual fundraiser invites participants to dream up and design wearable art from recycled materials—and then strut their stuff down the runway in two sold-out shows! It was an honor to be invited back again this year to serve on the judging panel - a job, I now know gets more challenging each year. Hats off to each and every entry! ✨ @trashionfashionsonoma winners will be announced at the Center’s Trash Bash on April 26.✨

This past Saturday was pure Sonoma County magic. ✨ My partners at @appellationhotels do such a beautiful job pairing creative workshops with spectacular venues—complete with incredible wine and food. Warmest thanks to @rsvineyards for hosting us in the Cellar Door and pouring tastings while I shared my passion for embellishing vintage postcards with embroidery. The @chefcharliepalmer team served up delicious bites that brought the whole experience together beautifully. 🪡🍷🍴

I’ll be leading another Crafted at Appellation workshop in June in which we will embroider a vintage Sonoma County map printed on fabric. I can't recommend these events highly enough and hope you’ll join us!

It’s been fun searching for the vintage postcard
