ABOUT

I find joy in the work of my hands—shaping, stitching, kneading, and crafting from scratch. Whether it’s sewing a quilt, molding clay, or baking bread, I love the simple magic of turning raw materials into something useful and beautiful. This blog is my place to share the projects, skills, and inspiration that come from a handmade life—created slowly, intentionally, and always with heart.
