I brought this fabric home from Chiang Mai just over a year ago. I still can’t believe I managed to make that trip in The Before Times. I think about it constantly, how I wondered if it was risky to fly through Tokyo since that’s close to China and “that’s where the Coronavirus is”. What a year.
I bought this fabric pre-printed (swipe for before) with the intention of adding more color and pattern with block printing. I carved this little block of X’s and I love this pink ink. For the other rows I’m thinking of doing the next pattern in orange, we’ll see!

She’s starting to look like a dress! Today’s blog post explains the technique behind the seamless lace sewing in yesterday’s video. It was slow going but a fascinating construction method.

It’s finally time to share the behind the scenes

It’s finally time to share the behind the scenes of making my wedding dress! What a long journey. So much work and so much pressure! I’m very excited to finally be sharing pictures, progress, and feelings on the blog. 💕 today is post 1: Inspiration and Design.

Happy Valentine’s Day to my forever valentine 😍 you are just the best.
It may be a made up holiday, but it’s always nice to have an excuse to tell our loved ones how much we love them ❤️ so grateful for all the love in my life (like those cuties grinning in the background!)
