I’m now on Bloglovin!

I absolutely LOVE how @sunnivahaldorsen's Melanie

I absolutely LOVE how @sunnivahaldorsen's Melanie Wrap Skirt turned out! It's so cute! She opted for a hook and eye rather than a button, and I love how minimal the waistband looks. She was also able to finish it in a weekend, making it the perfect project if you want to sew something quickly to get ready for warmer temps 🌞

You can find a link to the @angelica_creates #melaniewrapskirt pattern at the link in my bio!

I finally got a frame for my @clove.bird print of Sable from Animal Crossing and she is so cute next to my @babylocksewing Jubilant! If you are an Animal Crossing fan, you know how hard Sable works on producing garments all day long and is very dedicated to her craft. Girl could use a break every now and then!⁣

If you played Animal Crossing, did you get Sable to open up? What did you think of their family story?

I finally finished my super warm @petiteknit Zippe

I finally finished my super warm @petiteknit Zipper Sweater made in @cascadeyarns Eco+ Wool from @websyarn - just in time for spring! 😂 I had been working on this sweater for a while, hoping I would finish it at the beginning of the year so I could wear it for the rest of the cold weather season. I ended up finishing it last week. I won't get to wear it much in the coming months, but it was perfect for wearing during my recent trip to the Oregon Coast as it was still super chilly there! I'll be writing a review on my blog on this sweater soon, so I'll be sharing more again soon!

I'm also wearing my @greenstylecreations Inspire moto leggings!

Spending a couple days with my cousins for a quarantine style vacay at the beach! Had to pack my me-mades of course. The @chalkandnotch #waterfallraglan is absolute perfection for vacations because it's so comfy and roomy!! Knits are always vacay necessity 😍 I made mine in a viscose jersey knit from @minervadotcom!

Creativity comes and goes in phases and sometimes

Creativity comes and goes in phases and sometimes it's necessary to take some time away from the usual and even entertain other curiosities! I'm currently in Oregon spending time with family and it's been so nice!⁣

Aside from launching the Melanie Wrap Skirt and working on upcoming projects and collaborations, my list of personal sewing projects has been pretty small these days! I've slowed down a bit since we moved into our new home and I've spent most of my time and money on getting everything in my sewing room set up, which hasn't left a lot of room foor projects 😂 I've also slowed down because I haven't been able to wear a lot of the clothes I wore last year, so I'm holding off until I identify more gaps in my wardrobe. I do know that I need more activewear and am getting into lingerie sewing, so you'll see more of that soon! And I've also been SUPER into macrame lately and actually really love it.⁣

What phase are you in your creativity cycle? Are you feeling super inspired or in creative recovery mode?⁣

Thank you SO much to everyone who supported my 12

Thank you SO much to everyone who supported my 12 hour making marathon on March 27 for World Bipolar Day! Thanks to everyone's incredibly generous donations, I was able to raise a total of $880 to divide equally amongst @dbsalliance @asianmentalhealthcollective @latinxtherapy @thelovelandfoundation. I'm very happy to be supporting these organizations and look forward to continue doing so in the future.⁣
⁣
Last Saturday was a super emotional day for me. I definitely have been taking the week to rest and recuperate. It was so easy but at the same time, so hard to talk so openly about my mental health. But I'm grateful for everyone who listened with open minds and open hearts to learn more about bipolar disorder, mental health, and these 4 amazing organizations. I also thank those of you who shared personal stories with me about family members having bipolar disorder or other mental health conditions. I know it can be very difficult to talk about sometimes.⁣
⁣
I plan to continue doing this work and weave it into my blog and business. For the month of April, I will be donating 10% of my profits from the Melanie Wrap Skirt to the Asian Mental Health Collective.⁣
⁣
If anybody would like to gather and collaborate for future fundraisers or awareness events, hit me up! Would love more people to plan and coordinate with to keep this conversation and work going!

Sometimes it's nice to take a little break from the sewing machine to try something different. I've been sewing a lot less for myself over the last couple of months as we settle into our house and as my first pattern has released. Last week I got some new air plant babies from @fernplantshop_ @fernspokane for my home office and made these adorable macrame air plant holders using a pattern by @likewoahandmade. They've been such a nice addition to my space! I was even able to take the original pattern and scale it up for my bigger air plant baby. I'm now mildly addicted to macrame and am working on a much larger piece for some wall art in my sewing room!⁣
⁣
Have you tried macrame? What fun things have you made so far?⁣
