I am a visual artist with an MFA in Studio Art/Photography. Right now, I have a full-time job and use my evenings and weekends for stitching, shooting photos, and designing these little guys.
I've been making stuff ever since I could hold a pair of scissors. For some reason, my parents encouraged me so I never stopped. My husband and I live with our two cats who put up with my supplies and projects all over the house.
We just welcomed our first baby, Zadie, into our lives and couldn't be happier.
My process:
I start each piece by picking out the fabrics that will look best on the garment. I love shapes and patterns, especially vintage and retro prints. I sketch the figure out loosely on the Wonder Under paper (fusible interfacing) and let the scissors do the rest. Before I start to sew the edges, I use the iron to fuse the fabric to the garment.
I draw every character myself and work with the scissors to create the final design. Each piece is unique.
It's important to me that the clothes are well made. Poor craftsmanship is the bane of my existence.
