2017 was a huge year for my muses and I! We started designing for Violette Field Threads and have been so thrilled to be a part of such an incredible team! I thought it would be fun to look at some highlights of 2017 and then get a glimpse at what’s coming next in 2018!

My debut pattern with VFT was Nora. She will always be near and dear to my heart and I have to admit that those sleeves make my heart flutter every.single.time.

Probably my favorite part of working with VFT has been getting to work side by side with one of my very best sepals, Alexis of My Sweet Sunshine. We had a few fun pattern collaborations in 2017:

And we finished the year off with an epic duo, Blithe and Valentina:

Phewww! What a year!!!! I am so happy to end 2017 with a heart of gratitude, joy and so much creativity for the new year to begin!

Thank you all for following along this past year. Your comments, likes and support keeps me going when the going gets tough, and sparks my creativity to keep thinking more outside the box, trying new techniques, and striving to be better and better! XOXO.
