I'd love to hear from you, whether it's related to sewing/blogging or not!

About me
I'm Andrea, a twenty-something from Louisville, Kentucky who just moved to Philadelphia, PA. Since graduating with a Sociology degree, I've worked in grants management and fund development for the non-profit world. On nights and weekends, though, you'll find me indulging in selfish apparel sewing and awkward blog photo shoots.
I began a blog on Tumblr in 2011 after I moved in my first roommate-less apartment. I thought it'd be a fun and self-congratulatory way to document my crafty pursuits in home decor. I soon switched to Blogger because my posts were too text-heavy for Tumblr and I wanted to join a more comment-friendly community. By that point, though, I was already mostly satisfied with my apartment decor (it's a tiny apartment -- how much more could I do, really?) so I began using my sewing machine to make clothing instead of curtains. That's where you'll find me today.
I took private sewing lessons as a young kiddo, where I crookedly stitched together some tote bags and elastic-waist skirts. After that I had a spotty relationship with my sewing machine until I decided to pick up the hobby again in late college. As an avid puzzler (crosswords, Sudoku, Scrabble, jigsaws, etc.), I enjoy the technical piecing process of sewing the most. I've never had a keen eye for fashion, so I mostly sew clothes that I believe flatter my body type and are practical for work and play.
Thanks for stopping by! If you don't take away any sewing inspiration from my blog, you're bound to find some dry humor or irrelevant Google image referencing at the very least. See you around, friends.
