Three sweet Mother Mayhem dresses I made this spring. The first two are custom made for one of my Favorites, F! All are sold! But I am gearing up for a drop of several of these yoke dresses! Featuring textiles I got at and my Gurl ! I’m feeling like I’m living my best life in this crumbling facade, and I hope you are too!

A fungi’s best friend is always a little snail guy. I really like the imperfection of hand drawn and freehand sewing. I love using vintage fabrics and thread to paint little pictures! Every piece of clothing you wear is handmade! Mine is made to last, and if it fails I offer life time mending! I hope to be releasing all new summer creations soon!! Stay tuned!

I had such a great time at the Oak St Art Fair! Their 10th, my first!! Here’s the tops I made and then sold last week! I just want them documented!!! These turned out so great and I love using a part of my stash I don’t get into very often! All these loved textiles and linens! A perfect use for my collection of ribbons and 30” laces!! I’ll have the last of the tops THIS Saturday at The Thrift Shop!!!! Many of these are from local estate sales but also scored a bunch from who is having her weekly vintage linen sale TODAY!!!!!!!!!

A friend bought this Rainbow Brite Hoodie I made and she requested I put a zipper in! I had to do a little thinking but I figured out how not to cut Rainbow’s face in half!! Made from sweet sweet sleeping bag and rainbow of blankets I collected over a few years to match! This alteration was part of the thousand cost December I had.

Soft Armor pattern Release Day!! A joy to make this simple and magical armor. The pattern calls for the use of an upcycled quilt or can be leveled up for more adventurous knights of the sewing machine. 🖤🤍🖤I made mine with fabrics from the scrap box and added a few appliqués. I made a size up a 5X with loads of room for a nice puffy sweater underneath. I could not take it off after I tried it on! A quilted hug for these end times. A must for the revolution!
