Oh my gosh, I feel like this gets said too flippantly on Substack but this post has sparked SO many ideas! Love the tiling and bedspreads as a couch cover!
This is my most favorite of your Substack articles that I have read! Thank you so much for sharing all of this! So much fun to read! This stuff is your “special sauce” :)
I am saving my daughter’s t-shirts from preschool, camps, school outings, her school plaid, etc to make a blanket when she graduates high school in 3 years (cue tears) I love your love of nostalgia, preservation and making a house a home! Thanks for the bright spot posts I so look forward to.
I love this post so much and always in awe of your creativity and talent when it comes to DIY! ❤️❤️❤️ And that quilt… how special and tori kids are so lucky! Remember to tell them that! 😆
Haha! Well I find old sewing machines are SO much higher quality than the crappy new ones. The very old machine my mom had was so much nicer than all the crappy plastic ones I’ve had that have broken. I finally bought the PFaff one because I was so sick of the cheaper ones breaking.
I've admired the swimsuit quilt for a while and have been saving my kids' suits to do the same one day. What a great, sweet idea! And perfect for the beach.
So creative! Loved learning about all your projects. Do you mind sharing which rod you used for the under sink skirt? Contemplating doing something similar for open shelves in my bathroom.
I got this really cheap thin curtain rod at the hardware store. It’s very poor quality but I kind of love it because it basically disappears. I will try to look and see if I can find a similar one online.
Your kitchen is a DREAM and I love that bathing suit quilt ❤️

The quilt! My heart! Dealing with a big move this year and think my boys will love a keepsake like that <3

Such a sweet project.
I love all your DIYs especially the swimwear quilt…I plan on covering my sofa with bedspreads I can’t part with! ❤️
Hello from Vancouver - I adore your style! And I don’t think your tile looks like a pizza 🍕 place in California!
Haha! Thanks 💙
Love this!!! The coffee table skirt is sooo pretty! For sure adding that to my project list!!

Love you Cath!!
I absolutely adore Svenkst Tenn! The fabrics glow like jewels in person. Your projects are all so beautiful and personal :)
Thank you so much 💙
it is SOOO much cheaper to re-purpose fabric items than it is to purchase new yardage.
it is SOOO much cheaper to buy unembellished curtains and trim them yourself.
and one thing I hate - my sewing machine is a cantankerous old sow...

So inspired! Would love to learn how to sew and use a sewing machine. Any recommendations for courses/resources? Thanks! Love your substack. 🤍
Where do you live? I know some good places in nyc. A course is such a great way to get started. Lmk.

Crafty goddess! You’ve inspired me to pull out my sewing machine
