Meet me in Washington, D.C. over the holidays!

December 12, 2017 by Tasha 16 Comments

I couldn't resist a title riffing on one of my favorite old movies, Meet Me in St. Louis. But it's true! If you're in the Washington, D.C. area over the holidays, let's meet! I'm very tickled to announce I'll be at Three Little Birds Sewing Co. in Hyattsville, Maryland (suburban D.C.) for a retro holiday Meet & Greet on Friday, December 22nd, from 7-9pm. Cocktails, festive music, and sewing chatter. Come ask me ... Read more »

Refashioning my own Christmas knitting

December 11, 2016 by Tasha 23 Comments

In the spirit of Make Do and Mend, I did something recently that I've done only once before that I can recall: refashioned my own knitting! Six years ago, I knit Susan Crawford's Perfect Christmas Jumper pattern. It's a gorgeous, classic novelty holiday sweater. As an aside, if you're familiar with the pattern, you can see one major difference: the design is a lot bigger because I knit it in worsted weight yarn ... Read more »

Merry Christmas, my friends!! It's been a busy several days and I apologize that I've been remiss in replying to comments on my last couple of posts, I promise I'll get a chance to do that soon now that the holidays are cooling down! :) I'm having a lovely Christmas day at home, following a Christmas Eve celebrated with good friends and lots of good cheer. When we were in Portland in August, I fell in absolute love ... Read more »

Novelty felt Christmas skirt

December 22, 2015 by Tasha 45 Comments

Merry Christmas from... my skirt! When Technicolor Cutie announced early in December she was going to do a Christmas novelty felt circle skirt sew along, I knew I was IN. It was just the excuse I needed to be ridiculous during the holidays, and I love to be ridiculous during the holidays. I think she ended up getting delayed with the sew along but I plowed on full steam ahead because I just couldn't stop myself ... Read more »

Thank you, {Secret} Santa!

December 19, 2014 by Tasha 6 Comments

Well, we're off to my mom and step-dad's for the holidays tomorrow, and I'm in a particularly cheerful mood! Mostly because I'm excited to see family and friends, but also because it meant that today, I got to open my Secret Santa gift! Jessica from Chronically Vintage organized a Vintage Secret Santa swap this year. Several days ago, this amazing-looking package arrived on my doorstep. I may even have heard the slight ...

Merry Christmas!

December 25, 2013 by Tasha 25 Comments

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays! We are home for Christmas this year, and celebrated a wonderful Christmas Eve last night with friends. I thought to help spread a little good cheer, I'd share a few holiday photos from around the house. I hope you all enjoying a happy, healthy and safe holiday time full of people and things you love–friends, family, pets, a favorite Christmas ... Read more »
