I received a graduation gift from @bonniechristine

I received a graduation gift from @bonniechristine and it’s the most beautiful notebook with my own designs on and inside it! Swipe to see the finished notebook.
It’s a bit surreal to see my first collection on a real physical product that I can hold in my hand.
This design was inspired by the PROLIFIC chives in my garden and the beautiful blooms they give off. I did take some color liberties.
What do you think of the notebook? Would you get a notebook like this?

I’m thinking today will be a 2 cup coffee day, anyone else?

I made myself a convention notebook! This was such a fun project to come up with the design and layout. I had to learn a new program to lay everything out in book format.
I didn’t put the program in the actual notebook because that’s copyrighted.
I printed this on my home printer so the colors are muddled and I sewed it on my sewing machine!
Also I don’t have a book paper cutter so the edges are a little rough (literally lol), but I’m so happy with it!! Can’t wait to use it this weekend!

It’s graduation day!
I finished out the 8 weeks of the #immersion2023 course with my collection in the books 🤩. This is one of my “hero” patterns. They are usually the most detailed and time intensive patterns to create.
I can’t wait to keep drawing and get better with my artwork and patterns.

I’ve been working behind the scenes creating art

I’ve been working behind the scenes creating artwork and working on my website. And it’s ready!! I created this art print for everyone who signs up for my email list. I’d love for you to join me over there in case social media ever breaks down. You can download this print instantly! You can click the link in my bio to get the free downloadable art print. I think this would work really well on a card to a friend 🙂 I hope to see you there!

I’m almost to the end of my surface pattern design course!
I designed a whole collection based on my love of Botanical Gardens.
Here are two patterns I designed on the produce bags! They are the perfect complement to all the fresh veggies we are starting for the gardening season.
Since I’m so new to this surface pattern design word, I’d love to get some feedback from you, my friends!
What do you think? What else would you like to see? Wallpaper? Designed notebooks? Upholstery?

Are mushrooms still a thing?
I personally will never get tired of mushrooms, drawing or eating them.
This is an art print I did in my #immersion2023 course!
I’m actually beginning to like Adobe illustrator!

I’ve been playing with some folk art styles and I really love all the different combinations!
I can’t decide what background color I like, which one is your favorite?

How have I never posted this photo? While looking through my photos for inspiration for my course, I found this pic I took in the fall while Luke and I were apple picking.
These mushrooms were growing out of an old apple tree stump.
Absolutely gorgeous.

Remember that ball gown that I made last year?
Well I’m FINALLY getting around to flossing the grommets for a cleaner finish.
Maybe I’ll get pictures done by next year 😅
How long does it take for you to finish a project?

Here’s my pull for my #puffQAL2022 quilt! The perfect autumnal ditsy floral quilt. This will be my first quilt but I feel like it will be a good “stepping stone” into more complex designs! What do you think of the fabric choices?

Also how is this my first time going apple picking?? (I did grow up with a small orchard so I never needed to go).

Im definitely more comfortable behind the camera but I wanted some pictures of someone wearing this dress and that happened to be me.
Thank goodness for Luke being willing to take the pictures!!

Throwback Thursday to one of my favorite costumes

Throwback Thursday to one of my favorite costumes I’ve ever made!
I want to remake this for Luke with updates and more historical accuracy tied in.
Not sure if I should do maid Marian or Merida so there can be two archers.
What do you think?

I love how this historically inspired skirt turned out.
Made with a linen blend brings breathability while being less wrinkly.
As hard as it is to part with it, it’s now in my Etsy shop.
Should I make more and stock the Etsy shop?
