BoPeep Dress and Tunic Pattern Giveaway!
As mentioned in this post about PAINT! I’ve totally redesigned my BoPeep pattern, and I’m in LOVE. it’s super clean and reversible, and, best of all, my daughter LOVES it.

SockSack Pattern update
after getting lots of requests, I’ve revised and updated the SockSack pattern to have multiple sizes! (The Small size was the original sock size, Medium is perfect for cowls and scarves, and the Large is the right size for sweaters. 2-at-a-time sleeves, anyone?) My lovely friend Elisabeth made a Medium sample for me, and it’s […]

KCWC finale: Vintage patterns….
C and I had a morning date to the antique flea market, and while he was busy inspecting and buying a vintage cash register (seriously, for work), I stumbled upon these gems. Priced at $2-3 each, I absolutely could not resist. none of them are the right size, but I can grade the size 1’s […]
Another bag…
This puppy needs a name. I made another one to test my pattern, and I LOVE it. (BTW, if any of you love this bag as much as I do, I’d love a pattern tester!) My sister’s birthday is coming up, and that blue is her favorite color, so I think it’s headed her way, […]
name hunting….
Sorry for the extended absence, we went to SF last weekend, and I still haven’t figured out how to email pics in… but I have lots! Starting with these: The night before we left, I whipped this one up, and it looks SO cute on her! It’s the same idea as this shirt, which […]
Ring Around the Rosey grows up.
