Yes, yes I know - I totally started a new thing, got you all excited, and then ghosted - and right before holiday gift giving season no less. But I had an important quest I was working on.

My best friend lost her Dad in 2025, and she commissioned me to make some memory items for her family for their first Christmas without him, and without hesitation I jumped right in.

His name is John and he was a retired crane operator, a collector of Wheel Horses (aka his "Ponies"), and a truck fanatic. Using the shirts and bandanas he poured his literal blood sweat and tears into, I was able to make 2 quilts, 3 pillows, and a dozen seatbelt covers for her family to hold and remember him by.

I had never made any of these items before, but am really proud of the way they turned out! As I was making everything I could hear his voice in astonishment "Katie-Girl, you made that?! Gol dang."

John passed one year ago today. He's soaring with the eagles now - gone but not forgotten 🤍🦅 Fly high, John 🎈

🚨🎈 Today, from Noon - 4pm // it may be colder out today, but you know what's good for that? Sweatshirts & sweaters - and boy is this market full of them. Even better that everything is vintage and broken in and soft like a warm hug. And who doesn't like a good hug? See you soon, buds.
