Have you ever walked by someone famous? When I was flying back from saying goodbye to my grandmother who was passing away, I saw a young man at the Denver International Airport. I didn’t know who he was. I still don’t, actually. But when I saw him, I did a double take. There was something…
I have been searching for a good jumpsuit pattern that not only fits my hips, but is somewhat easy to make with a simple design. It’s been hard to find! Jumpsuits are not made to fit a short curvy Woman’s body – but the GIA Jumpsuit really does check all the boxes. With the versatility…

For some reason or another, our body seems to be of particular interest for attack from mean voices within. The mean voice is surprisingly convincing. It starts early in our lives. It is not invited inside, but it finds a way in. It cleverly twists things you hear or experience into unhealthy comparisons with girls…
This interview means alot, since for the past four years Rima and I built up the tutorials section of The Thread together, me trying to make sense of what editing and sewing meant, her learning the skills and craftsmanship of a seamstress and pattern maker, but underneath it all, Rima has been a friend for…
