Just as I’m sure Summer has made an early arrival…brrr, where’s my scarf?! And some cozy flannel, please. That’s okay, it just means I’ll get a little more wear out of this Nani Iro number before summer truly arrives. This is the Tova in dress length, which is really more of a tunic length for […]
When the Colette Myrtle pattern was released late last Summer, I knew rather quickly that I wanted to make one. As Michelle was stitching her knit version (and raving about it) I quickly followed behind, only I wanted to go with a woven fabric. I chose one of the cotton lawn prints from Cotton + […]

My latest versions are for my boys. They frequently use them around the house, but they’re ideal for grabbing and going - be prepared for a wait […]
Bags. I feel like I should be using a more alluring word when talking about this, but…there is something really, really satisfying about making bags. For me, anyway. I think it’s the neatly finished details. And the pockets. (Oddly enough, the same things that make me love a hand sewn garment!) The fabric love goes […]
UNWIND is back in 2015with a new project at a new location! We’re super excited to stitch up these bamboo pendants and hope you are too!
