(nyk-lectic) and HydraHeart Collaboration.

Molly and I put our talents together and came up with a tote and shoe set. Perfect for the fall season coming up. You can find them in my shop and hers.

Enjoy your last few days of summer.

Pleated Clutch.

A new design for my etsy shop. A clutch with a pleat. It is perfect for those few things you need for a night out. Made with wool for the outside and lined with satin.

Hydra Heart.

I've been crazy busy lately ... but who isn't this time of year. I got a little side job and made a new friend. I am helping Molly cut out and sew together her adorable line of shoes. Have a look at her etsy shop HydraHeart.

Friday Five.

Come by the shop for a closer look.

Friday Five.

The Friday Five.

I attempted to take (nyk-lectic) to a local swap meet ... but I am not quite ready yet. I need to have papers and numbers and things I've never heard of.

So with the stash of things I made ... I am going to post five new items in the shop on Fridays. Here is the first five.

Homemade Clothes.

I painted the bottom of this skirt ... I used a stencil from the Lotta Prints book. I am going to try out a few more stencils before I try to create my own image. The fabric of this skirt is linen with a elastic waist ... my intention was to attempt a zipper but that is still too intimidating.


Homemade clothes have captured my attention. I picked up these patterns this morning at JoAnns ... they are marked down to $1.99 for a few more days.



I also want to try clothes for kids and babies. I ordered this sewing book from Japan ... For Kids Who Have Started to Walk. I can't read Japanese ... but I think I can follow the photos. I check the mail for it everyday.
