Two things are happening today.
First, knit fabrics….
So often I hear people say they’re scared to sew with knits. Don’t be! They’re your friend, they’re fun, they’re cute, and guess what?…..You can sew them using a standard sewing machine. Yep, yep.
Made by Rae has been hosting a series of KNITerviews on her site, asking sewing bloggers to share tips, secrets, and expel any myths about sewing with knits. And today I get to share my thoughts! So come on over and check out my KNITerview.
Second,
I’m catching a plane in 3 hours.
I know.
I’m very pregnant and very past the “you probably shouldn’t travel” mark.
But today is also the first day of the Alt Design Summit in Salt Lake City!
Totally excited about that.
I’ve been running around like a crazy lady this week getting everything ready for the Design Camp class I’m teaching on Saturday. But I think I’ve got it all.

Pilar Guzman, Editor-in-Chief of Martha Stewart Living
Maxwell of Apartment Living
Ben Silbermann, co-founder of Pinterest
Emily Henderson of HGTV’s Secret’s from a Sylist
and about 80 more creative designers and bloggers. Seriously, I’m totally humbled to be mixed in with it all somehow. Especially since Alt just announced another new speaker….Anya from Project Runway!
This conference is going to be one big party (actually Friday night is a line-up of parties. YAY).
Now if my baby girl can just stay put….and if I have enough energy to talk and do all the things I need to this weekend, we’re in good shape.
