Noodlehead Crescent Totes

October 28, 2021

I am thrilled with how these Crescent Totes from Noodlehead came out! Not shocking since I love all of Anna’s patterns. These totes are gifts and now that they’ve arrived I can share. First up is this Marimekko version for Vienna’s 40th birthday. I used Marimekko Siirtolapuutarha fabric I scored…

Perforated Faux Suede Noodlehead Pencil Pouch

May 21, 2018

Here’s my second pieced quilt, made for my very Here’s my second pieced quilt, made for my very special bff @s.a.m.r.i.v! We met 40 years ago as tiny bebes in the park, and through the years we drifted apart several times but always found each other again at various dance recitals, school field trips, beach clubs, fabric stores, and summer jobs. The universe kept shoving us together til it stuck. This quilt is a hug from afar. I might not be able to get up to New Jersey frequently but this quilt will be there for cozy/comforting times as needed. 

I picked out my fabric, then used a quilt generator at savoreverystitch.com (the last slide), then imported it into Photoshop and colored over it (second to last slide), basically changing the whole thing, but it was an awesome starting place.
