New Happenings & The Modern Sewciety Podcast

Grainline Studio | New Work Studio

I'm sure you guys have noticed there's a lot of stuff going on over here, especially if you follow me on Instagram, but if not I thought I'd fill you in! I'm so excited that I've finally moved my work space out of my apartment living room and into a dedicated studio! I've been dreaming of the day I wouldn't walk out of my bedroom in the morning and be at work and it's finally happened! Or happening...we're in slight construction mode getting everything set up, etc. My goal is to be done by next week so I can get back to work but we'll see how things go. It seems like things always take so much longer than you think they will.

Anyway this new studio is the first step towards bringing you patterns on a more regular schedule, rather than the here and there I've been doing since I started. Whooo!! I cannot wait, I have so many ideas and just haven't had the space to get them done, or the time really. I found that when when you work out of your living room in a space that's about 10x smaller than what you need you spend a lot of time cleaning and tetris organizing things so that you can move around and not feel totally overwhelmed by stuff. I'm glad that now everything will have an actual dedicated place and my kitchen table and counters will now be free of patternmaking supplies!!

Another thing that's happened recently is I was interviewed by Stephanie for the Modern Sewciety podcast which was really a lot of fun. I'm in a really great episode, Carolyn Friedlander guys! Seriously, she is so awesome and when Stephanie told me she'd be on my episode I was totally excited. Anyway if you're looking for something to listen to while you sew, want to hear me get weird talking about what I do, totally embarrass myself, and hear some other amazing ladies talk about their projects this is right up your alley! Also I'll be going to Berlin in a short bit, if you have any recommendations of things I need to check out let me know!
