🎨MAY RECAP🎨
Has someone been playing The Pixies because yeah: Where is my Mind? This was a doozy of a month. My body was slowly breaking down with life events at the beginning of the month then had the epiphany/wake-up call to listen to my body and decide to take a hiatus.
The city is starting to turn over into the warmer weather giving way to the beauty and little mysteries Pittsburgh has to offer in its nooks and crannies. Everyone is out walking with their babies and dogs, feeling better with the gray at bay, and I’d be lying if the vitamin D wasnt also giving some respite.
I’m not sure what exactly I’ll do with unrestricted creative time for myself and without a selling mindset. Give me ideas or let’s hang out!

❤️‍🔥SACRED HEART DRESS❤️‍🔥
This week has been something else, and yet in spite of that it’s like a compulsion to keep experimenting and creating in the face of uncertainty. Some people are uncomfortable by vulnerability and that’s never been me. If you’ve known me, you know I’m not afraid to tell you exactly how I’m doing.
Heart on the sleeve? For me, it’s heart with my whole chest, which is why I find myself creating different iterations of anatomical hearts on clothing.
This is another experimental foray into my own version of appliqué, as messy as it is, for something for myself.
Should I continue this exploration into wearables for you all? Sound off below.

🏷️ HANG TAGS 🏷️
Did you know I print my tags by hand? Thankfully not letter by letter, but each side has its own stamp I had made.
I typically grab some Manila folder thick index cards, hole punch, stamp one side, then the other, loop them with yarn or ribbon, then add a safety pin.
Homemade, sustainable, and gives the feel that each work of art is a visual artifact of whatever mythos I’ve created, checking out a book of myths.

🌺 FLOWER MANTIS🌺
Sometimes your day off gets derailed by an a-ha moment…
My new headdress is actually made with an upcycled, deconstructed 1960s Sunday bonnet with pleated ruffle organza. With the original elastic, I positioned the bonnet from the back of the head to the face, seam ripping some of the organza to create a screen so I could see 😂, ripped off the faux flowers, attached a beat up curtain tassle holder mechanism as “eyes”, sewed layers of spiky eyelet trim I had for straps, added antique silk details, and finally hand painted with watercolors a red to pink ombré effect.
I LOVE BUGZ 🪲🪲

🎺MAGNOLIA BALL AUCTION PIECE🎺
Incredibly honored and excited to say that my piece “Hearing to See”, inspired by my experience with audio visual synesthesia, will be up for auction at the Ogden Museum’s () annual Magnolia Ball in New Orleans!
This piece was created also in direct conversation with the exhibition going on at the time centered on jazz photography.
This work strays away from my usual style but rather embraces an essence or impression of fluid music that comes from a musician. In terms of my synesthesia, there can be multiple colors present within a song but there will be an overarching color, I.e. “that song was blue” or “I don’t listen to orange music” and found the best way to encapsulate that was to use iridescent floss that looks like black from far away but actually contains 3 or 4 different colors depending on the viewers movement.
Also for scale purposes, this has been my largest hoop I’ve worked on: 2 feet in diameter

🥼MENDING🥼
While I don’t have a video showing my steps of mending my early 1900s cotton summer top I got from , I wanted to share some pictures of a mix of my own mending and the mending done by previous owners years gone by and it truly encapsulates how with some care and mending skills, clothing can last for a century—and more!
You never have to buy new, you can search, curate, mend, and wear.
Also humble plug that I can mend just about anything except leather and thick denim, but antique, paperthin textiles…yessss
