"This Town Ain't Big Enough for Both of Us"
At least, that’s the line that inspired my latest tapestry pattern. Here in Texas, spring means rodeo season, a time filled with western themes, cowboy culture, and that classic old-town feel. So, to honor that southern spirit, I had the idea to create a tapestry that mimics the look of a wanted poster, something that feels straight out of a western scene. Mix those sentiments with my personal style you get "Texas' Most Wanted" Tapestry pattern. So if you’re looking to show off your Texan pride, or if the concept just caught your eye check it out here.

Now that Spring is in full focus I'm excited to announce my Picnic Blanket Concept. This blanket is the perfect companion for spring and summer days. Plan a potluck picnic with friends or lounge by the beach. Wherever you go, you can count on this blanket to be a great backdrop for your adventures.
The design features alternating red and white solid granny squares with a red trim. Don’t feel limited by color though. This is a beginner-friendly pattern that can be customized with any color combination or layout to fit your style.

Charts, Charts, Charts
If you’ve been keeping up with recent updates, you’ve probably noticed my ongoing Zodiac Sign Chart releases on Pinterest. The collection has continued to grow and now includes several signs, with Aries being the latest addition.
Each sign comes with two chart options: one designed to be simple and approachable for beginners, and another that leans more artistic, drawing inspiration from the symbolism of the sign itself.
In addition to my zodiac series, I’ve also started a new “NHL Series” for my patterns. As of now, only the Dallas Stars designs are available, but stay tuned for more.
Refresh the Old
n my latest video, I show you how to refresh old crochet projects. Nothing is more frustrating than finishing a piece only to realize it doesn’t look the way you wanted, or seeing your favorite cardigan end up with a hole or tear.Instead of letting those pieces pile up unused, this video walks you through how to give them a second life. If that sounds like something you need, give it a watch.
Patterns & Pinterest posts that spark inspiration
I've said it before and I''ll keep saying it. I love tapestry crochet. What started as a simple dip of my toe into a new concept (colorwork) ignited my passion. Something about each color and strand working together to make vivid pictures...truly awe-inspiring. I didn't think I could get anymore intrigued until I saw these crochet ties featuring colorwork. I usually make tapestries and hang them as decorations. I forget that much like art as a whole, the possibilities are limitless. The best part is that the small size means they won't take forever to make. Whilem I probably won't be doning my own crochet tie anytime soon I will be looking into other small accessories featuing colorwork.
Simple but effective crafting tools and tricks to work smarter not harder.
A while ago, I took up sewing and, of course, went through the inevitable beginner fails. With those came plenty of fabric scraps. Technically, I could just throw them in with my yarn scraps and call it a day, but the scrappy (pun intended) crafter in me refused. Luckily, as I was looking through Pinterest I found this hack for making tape from fabric scraps. I think it would make a great alternative to washi tape in journals and even scrapbooks. I can finally say goodbye to those pesky fabric scraps.
My own personal "Best of" for projects of the past, present, and future.
Ah, painting. Throughout my creative journey, I’ve had an on-again, off-again relationship with it. I love the vibrant results it can produce, but I’ve always struggled with the level of patience needed to really nail the technical side. Recently, I decided to stop letting that hold me back. Enter this piece, my “Back to Basics” leaf painting. It’s the result of a self-guided two-week painting fundamentals bootcamp. It’s not perfect, but it’s a start, and I love the message it represents: we all start somewhere.
