Tasha Could Make That is now on YouTube!

January 18, 2023 by Tasha 1 Comment

Hello friends! It's with a lot of excitement and just as much (or more!) nervousness, that I'm announcing today that I'm finally on YouTube! I've had a lot of requests over the years to do more video content for vintage sewing and knitting. And though I have done a bunch of Instagram stories, mainly talking through sewing projects, it's not nearly as 'official' as a dedicated channel for things! But particularly ... Read more »

Inspiration finally, two years later

April 26, 2018 by Tasha 11 Comments

I'm back from vacation and I'm INSPIRED! Two years ago, we went through the looong process of transforming a large part of our basement into studio spaces for ourselves. Back then, I did a few posts on it—sharing the dirty 'lil before photos, the planning and build-out phase, and creating my dream cutting table. But I haven't shared anything about it since. The truth is, I absolutely love my sewing and craft space ... Read more »

Creating my dream cutting table for sewing

June 22, 2016 by Tasha 51 Comments

Hello! I'm back from a relaxing vacation in the Southwest, where it was so relaxing, in fact, that we spent more time enjoying ourselves than bothering to take photos! But I may be able to cobble together a post from phone photos, so possibly stay tuned for that in the future. Now I'm continuing my basement makeover posts! When last I left things, you got to see the planning and build-out phases. And today *drumroll ... Read more »

Basement studio makeover: planning and “build-out”

June 9, 2016 by Tasha 24 Comments

I thought I'd continue my basement studio makeover posts (catch up with the first one here) with the planning and the "build-out" phase where we actually assembled and moved everything around, both of which took ages! Not necessarily the most glamorous topics, either. But I feel like many people just do "before and after" shots and you don't actually get to learn much about the nitty gritty along the way, and how they ... Read more »

Basement studio makeover: dirty little “before” photos!

June 1, 2016 by Tasha 37 Comments

Hello, everyone! Boy, have I been busy these last several weeks! We've been knee deep in giving our basement studio spaces a BIG makeover. And suddenly the weather went from marginal spring (great to seclude yourself in the basement) to summer (oops, would rather be out doing fun things) in about 10 seconds flat, and I feel like I'm behind on literally everything. With a vacation coming in mid-June I suspect I'm going ... Read more »

Starting to plot my corner of the basement

April 5, 2012 by Tasha 20 Comments

Thanks for all the lovely comments on our new house! We are super busy unpacking and figuring out all the stuff we need to do or buy, but it's been awesome. ♥One of the things I'm daydreaming about now that we've moved is my sewing and craft space! In our condo, my sewing "area" (and I use the term loosely) was the dining table. Not a very useful setup and annoying when we actually wanted to dine at the dining table.Now ... Read more »
