Hello sew-friends! This Valentine's Day as a gesture of love to the sewing community and the world, I'm sharing a design that I created a few weeks ago.

Over the past few months, as I've attended protests and seen so many powerful art quilts online, I've been wanting to create something of my own. And one morning, the inspiration came to me. It's part protest sign and part prayer. It's all the things I want for the world. I believe that even as we grieve and fight for justice, we also need to hold onto hope and remember that love is stronger than hate.

So, it's a simple, yet powerful message. Peace, Hope, Unity, Love.

Today I have a new video tutorial to share with you. I recently drafted a cardigan sewing pattern and while sewing it, I filmed the whole process. This is a super cozy cardigan made from a thick rib knit fabric. In the video, I show the step-by-step process of sewing this cardigan as well as some tips for handling a thick knit fabric.
