Hey y'all! I know that this post is a long time coming - but here it is! How to sew with velvet. Velvet, kind of like any other fabric can have a stretch or a non-stretch property. I've sewn with both and I honestly believe non-stretch velvet is more difficult to sew with, but we're…
Hey everyone! I know it's been a few weeks since the last time I wrote on my blog. If we're being honest, I've been getting really wrapped up into creating TikTok videos and it's really been occupying time. Shameful, yes. I know.

See, my fiancée had a really awful colored arm chair. It was like....a chenille seafoam green (but very comfortable) arm chair. Bottom line,…
Well this is a Christmas that I will NEVER FORGET! On Christmas Eve, Joe proposed to me in front of our parents, plus family and friends via Zoom.

Whew! What a whirlwind the last two months have been. But, in a good way. Everything in the last 8 weeks have led to this moment! Over the weekend I moved to Jackson, MS to be with Joe! If you follow me on Instagram then you know that I have been in a long distance…
