About Me:
Hi! My name is Kerri and I'm a 28 year old stay-at-home-mom. When I'm not doodling and reading with my 2 year old daughter or watching the History Channel with my husband, I like to read new thought material and I LOVE to sew. I mostly make totes, but I also like to make raggedy dolls and other little odds and ends. It makes me happy to make things that people can use and enjoy.


I draw my inspiration from all over the place. I especially love all things strange and magical - faeries and skeleton keys, gypsy caravans...things you'd find in a haunted attic. I love faded colors and old floppy worn out clothes from thrift stores. And I love the imaginative, nature-inspired designs by modern Japanese crafters. When I make things, I like for them to be unique, comfortable, durable and really special.

While there are certain characteristics of my goods that reflect my personal style, my things are made and sold as one-of-a-kind pieces. You might see small pieces of the same fabric show up in more than one project (sometimes I just love the fabric so much I want to use it a lot!), but they will always be used in a new and exciting way. No exact duplicates will EVER be made because that's just boring! :)
