It’s here it’s here the day is finally here! You can now purchase your own copy of Ravenna! When I decided on a whim last May to sign up for Lauren Dahl’s Pattern Workshop (affiliate link) course I never could have imagined I would actually get to this point. I had absolutely no knowledge about …

Today I am teaming up with Indiesew who last week launched a curated collection of 6 indie patterns that be mixed and matched to create a fall wardrobe. These pieces are all amazing in their own right but when paired together you really are set for the fall and beyond. Who doesn’t love a great …
Blog Hop
I was asked by the lovely Annika of Nah-connection to take part in a blog hop that has been making it’s rounds through the blogoverse.

Comfy Running Around Shorts
Growing up with 2 sisters all I ever knew was girls. When I got pregnant with Sophie I knew without a doubt that I was having a girl. I just always pictured myself with girls, at least 2 but maybe even 4. Clearly that was the no kids person talking, because reality is 2 kids …
Sewing Room

Straight Stitch Designs
A few months ago I began to think that The Nest Creations didn’t quite fit the direction that I was hoping to move in. When I signed up for Lauren’s course, Pattern Workshop, I wanted to create something that would not only encompass a blog about sewing and crafting but also pattern design. After months …

Somehow I managed to delete or move my entire contents folder last night. Thankfully my husband is brilliant so he figured out how to get the website to actually display. I managed to only lose the photos uploaded in July! …
