Omg I just found like $500 lying in a box! Well, kind of: I found a box of leftover pocket tees that have a retail value of over $500. So I guess I’m gonna have to host a lil clear-out sale.

My husband made me pizza with Miyoko’s vegan cheese (I’m lactose intolerant) and I might cry. I haven’t had real pizza in MONTHS.

It’s my goal to cook one homemade meal a week - and right now I wanna explore Vietnamese cooking. Any recommendations for recipes?

I love getting snail mail that isn’t bills! Makenna Kwik’s Patreon sticker club is always a highlight in my month.

Last night, a community auntie shared some of the the magic that keeps them functional - salonpas patches. That she just happened to have in her bag when I mentioned my back was bothering me.

I totally thought those things were mostly placebo, but oh, I was wrong.

Has the news got you feeling stabby? SAME. Sashiko literally means “tiny stabs” in Japanese. These sashiko kits include everything you need to make a whole lot of tiny stabs, and you’ll end up with something pretty and useful.

I’ve unlocked a new level of aging: spent too much time in bed lying on my side, and now I’ve got excruciating rib cage pain. Hurts to move…hurts to sit around.

My journal is being forced to do a lot of heavy lifting for my mental health this weekend. Not in the headspace to do real work, so I’m making new bujo spreads for the month.

My payroll provider just announced that they are increasing their base rate by 22% in March 😫 #smallbusiness

Idk what I did to deserve such a perfect dog for me. The only one who hates mornings more than I do is Sachi! I sing her dumb songs to encourage her to wake up but she’s often just like NOPE 😂

3 DAYS LEFT to register for my beginning quilt class at The Center. If you can make it to SF Japantown for the next few Monday evenings, I’d LOVE to have you there!

Please share with your friends - you know, the friends you want to get into sewing so they have cool hobbies like you do.

Obsessed with my new sashiko kits. The snake pattern is the right mix of bright and traditional, which is 100% my jam.

And then then segaiha pattern uses hand-dyed threads from Japan that are dyed with persimmon tannins!

Get 10% off all sashiko kits now thru Sunday with code SNAKE

Happy LNY! My family doesn’t really observe it, but LNY has always had a special place in my heart, thanks to my 2nd grade teacher, Mrs. Snyder. I have no idea how she was able to carve out the time to do a whole unit about LNY for a bunch of white and brown kids, but she did.

Getting ready to release my first curated sashiko hanafukin kits tomorrow! Why tomorrow? Because it’s LNY and one of the designs is Year of the Snake themed!

I’m not a morning person, so I was grumpier than I’d like to be about getting to jury duty by 8:45am, only to stand in a crowded hallway for 50 minutes and then get told that there’s been a delay and to show up again on Wednesday morning. The wheels of justice move slowly.

Courthouse security made me throw away my little stork embroidery scissors ✂️ today 🫤 I thought they would be fine because I can take them on a plane, but they said they will only allow kiddie safety scissors.
