Bio
This journal is for the purposes of documenting my sewing projects, though there are some personal notes as well. Because of this, I welcome any and all new friends interested in sewing, historical clothing, or history in general. Please do add me.

About Me

I have been sewing since early childhood and have continued to do so all my life. I enjoy a variety of crafts projects including researching and creating historical clothing and quilting. My eras of interests are vast and including many periods. I do however have a favorites: the 16th and 12th centuries. Most of my work has been with Renaissance era clothing, but I am beginning to explore more.

On a personal note, I am a recent graduate of San Francisco State University where I just earned my BA in history.
