POSTS STORIES REELS

EDIT: ONLY QUILTS 3,4 AND 6 (FROM THE BOTTOM) ARE LEFT.

For the whimsical, one of a kind clothing enthusiast!

Quilted jackets up for grabs. These are hand made from second hand quilts, and will be fully reversible. The main side also has two front large pockets. Meant to be worn oversized and open, but the jacket does have hooks all down the front.

These are handmade by me from second hand quilts, so the material is worn and has a lived in feel. Also, they take 2-5 days each depending on how much material I have to scavenge from other sections as this is very labor intensive. They will not be in perfectly new condition, and that is part of the charm.
I make sure to cut around any imperfections, but if it is unavoidable, a hand added embroidery element will be added to cover it up.

Other vendors I've found sell similar quilted jackets for $600-700, I'm selling mine for $295 + shipping.

These are the quilts I have in stock. Some are already spoken for. So DM me quick before they are gone.

About last night....

By the end, the hair was up and I was sweating.
Dancing is the best.
Exactly what the doctor ordered.

Let's do it again next weekend.

There is no reason to speak to people without respect.

We all have pain.
We all have been hurt.
We all have a story.

Your story does not overshadow mine. It's not a competition.

Speak with respect.
Else do not speak at all. by @joannahaughton

Taking thrifted yarn, and a top down sweater pattern and turning it into a fun Fall sweater dress.
And of course, adding a touch of embroidery. Perfect for this time of year.

It was an honor to attend the Gatehouse fundraising gala for survivors of child sexual abuse. Wonderful evening filled with some inspiring stories. The resilience of survivors is something beyond compare. by @joannahaughton

I know I may be alone on this, but I don't get the slow motion running in a ball gown videos. I'm not exactly sure what the point of it is.
Are you being chased by someone?
If so, run faster.
Is it dinner? An afternoon snack might help.
Did you realize that you wore the wrong shoes?

Maybe I'm too practical. by @joannahaughton

Sometimes people are exhausting.
Honestly.

Why are people proud of never having read a book?

An influencer (Alix Earle) proudly declares she's never read a book.

Since when is illiteracy and a lack of reading something to be proud of?

Hand me down yarn in a color I adore = and fun 1940s meets renaissance sleeve sweater.

Happy Thanksgiving, Loves! by @joannahaughton

Sick and tired of people calling themselves an empath. If you have to tell everyone all the time that you are an empath, you aren't one. You know who's an empath? A feeling human being. There are many of us.

Thanks for coming to my Ted Talk. by @joannahaughton
