Learning to Sew

Saturday, February 13, 2010

I have always wanted to learn how to sew… granted I played around on my mother’s sewing machine as a teen but never actually learned how to follow a pattern and make something from scratch. Once I get a hold of that, I plan to learn how to create my own patterns so I can make some of my own clothes. Wish me luck!!!

This is was the product of my first project (a pin cushion) as I learned how to use the new sewing machine my husband bought to kick start this adventure. He is even interested in trying his hand at it, in pursuit of making his own costumes for Halloween and Comic Con.

I am now attempting to make some flannel PJ bottoms for him and myself, I’ll post when those are done!

Officially Email Newsletter Month!

To announce her new website (which we also designed) and kickoff  her promotional push for the 2010 wedding season, we designed this custom email template that allows Suthi, Picotte Photography’s owner, the autonomy and ease of use to create future mailings on her own.

Over the past 2 weeks, we have designed and pushed out 8 email newsletters and have 5 currently in production!

Recipe Ranch Identity

A new idea that we have been batting around for the last few years is finally starting to come together. The first stop, identity of course. I virtually cross stitched for two days to accomplish this look which starts to bring our aesthetic for this project into focus. Stay tuned for further developments in the coming months!
