I have been working on this wall hanging for the last two months, partly with my mom and partly on my own. It is a double wedding ring quilt for one of my best friend’s marriage.
The four-squares where the rings intersect are red and blue, to match my friend’s and her new husband’s living room. [...]
Last weekend, I finished the bridesmaid bouquet to match my friend’s bridal bouquet (seen here). It couldn’t have happened any later, since she’s getting married this weekend! This will be the one I get to carry since I’m the maid of honor and coincidentally the only member of the bridal party.

I was recently commissioned to make 13 table runners for a wedding coming up soon. Each 13 inch wide, 7-foot runner will go on a 5-foot round table, so it will drape 1 foot over each side.
Here are three draped over my banister.

I have finally finished the bouquet for my friend’s wedding, with its flowers and experiments seen here and here. I am so excited for her to receive it (not to mention the wedding itself)!

From the side:
And the bottom:
How to make each petal is quite simple. Cut out a [...]
Recently, I’ve had a chance to work with a photographer in DC while consulting for Little Black Dress Weddings (website and contact information is forthcoming). Since then, I have realized I should promote the work of two photographers I admire. Both of these people are warm, receptive to their customers’ visions, youthful, energetic, and very [...]
A friend of mine, in whose wedding I will be maid of honor next year, requested that I try to make a fabric flower bouquet for her and me. Here are my attempts using scrap fabric (i repeat: SCRAP fabric…i would never use this kind of print for this kind of project).
Here’s my first two [...]
