Pipes + Drums

Each piece that I craft is as unique as the wearer and is intended to be a piece of artistry that they carry with them. Thanks for stopping by!

I use the delicate craft of hand-stitched needlework on as much recycled and upcycled materials as I can to give new life to old items. I'm just an art student trying to get by. Having been thrust into adult life I'm doing my best of finding my own way and trying to keep a good balance of work, play, and sleep. I've always been interested in making any sorts of ideas I get in my head into a reality and try my best at it. My shop is consisted of my wonderful finds and the things that I love to make myself. I have a constant fire burning inside me causing a never-ending itch for thrift shopping. This itch has caused massive amounts of wonderful and beautiful finds that I want to share with the world! I have a love for mugs and drinking glasses in particular. I also love to make gorgeous bracelets and stamps in my spare time.

Feed sack fabrics make me happy. This double wedding ring potholder happens to perfectly fit a Pyrex casserole dish, which makes me EXTRA happy.

Sardine alert! I've been having so much fun making these finned friends designed by Woollypetals that I've lost count of how many there have been!

If you're looking for one for yourself or someone you love, they are in stock now at Oro beginning August 8th! You can find a selection of these guys as well as other unique and locally curated finds, too!

As usual, I will have some with me at any market or you can send me a message for a custom one! 🪱

My big green babe is the single greatest investment in my sewing life that I have ever made! True estate sale gold. Everything that I make is done on this machine! She has NEVER done me wrong, and does it all with power and finesse. I just want to look at her all day long 😍

Not pictured- mountains of material, miles of interfacing, my iron, toddler, a good record, and of course, my coffee.

What are your favorite tools of the trade?

08/01/2026

When I'm sewing I try to make things that bring me joy to create and hopefully also brings some joy to others!

Beyond that I try to challenge myself with new things that inspire me to keep going and make it again!

What's been bringing you joy lately?
