I love, love, love to see someone feel awesome about something they’ve done. Their shoulders square up a bit, the corners of their eyes crinkle slightly, and a hint of a smile starts to spread across their face. That’s why, nine times out of ten, I’d rather show you how to do something than just [...]
The lovely and talented Khristian Howell has challenged me/you/us to make a to do list for the summer. My to do list is typically 5 miles long, but I’m going to pluck out a few bits and commit to them this summer. Finish this tutorial series. Complete the plan for a new product I’m developing [...]
I don’t know about you, but my weekends are often just an extension of my work week. While I might not be working, per se, there are tasks that assume their place on Saturday and Sunday, leaving very little room for anything else.

This morning as I created a new folder on my computer for a new client. I was organizing all my subfolders and thinking, wow, every folder on my hard drive looks pretty much like this, and because of that, I know exactly where everything is. Kind of a self-affirming moment, really. And then I got [...]
I’ve been reading for an hour. I’d make some comment about lost productivity, but learning and growing are sometimes more productive than actual work. I have a website to lay out, a contract to write, another series of patterns to publish, a PDF form to structure, but amidst all that, I’m captivated by this blog. [...]
I am really loving this shade of blue lately. It’s showing up in random places and complimenting colors I wouldn’t readily pair with it. Bright, but sultry, a cool blue that warms up a room?
