LISTENING TO

This is not a podcast I would normally listen to, it has a bit too much of a 'Lifetime' vibe, but it came to me when I was heavily focused on production so it grabbed me. It's quirky and almost seems scripted, but it isn't, it's a real true crime about a romance author and her chef husband. It was a good binge while sewing Hunter Jean Jackets.

READING

Before Anna Wintour there was Diana Vreeland. This woman is an absolute legend in the fashion industry, she created the fashion editorials that we have become accustomed to. This read takes you into Diana's world, from living in Paris to jumping into the fashion industry at Harper's Bazaar and then Vogue, and finally bringing her wealth of fashion knowledge to her exhibits at the Met. I love learning more about the Empress of Fashion.

WATCHING

The beau and I needed a good laugh and HACKS hit the spot. This dramedy brings two comedians together from different generations and honestly, it's hilarious. Who hasn't had a frustrating conversation with a grandparent about certain words or terms no longer appropriate? Well, it's that, but both are pushing each other to grow and do better.

DOING
September is always busy. I am wrapping up Fall production, ramping up shows, loading new products on the website, lots to do, and no matter how ready I am, it always hits hard because it really means the end of summer. Thankfully I love my studio and being in this space more is easy to get used to.
WORKING ON
My scrap babies will always be my favourite. Whether it is jean scrap or quilt scraps, I love sewing them back together and creating magic. Each one becomes a whole mood and it brings me much joy to see who ends up with each scrap baby.
