Knits and Cuddles


Today I finished up all the knits for DevonRose's SP2014 collection. She's wearing our thermal top
which is part of a set of the only two unisex pieces in this particular group. I'm going to wait to post
the rest of the range after our vacation in Bodega Bay, where I'll be photographing it in it's entirety.

Shooting with Devon and Bik together made me reflect on how far their relationship has come. This
is from the beginning, and now they sleep together:)

Roo Pocket







It's so much fun designing the new children's collection with Devon on advisory board, and
she definitely knows what she wants .This knit dress that I just made her was originally
intended to have a lip shaped "kangaroo pocket" (to keep her little mitts warm) but as soon
as she heard the word "kangaroo," she was adamant that the pocket open only at the top.
How could warmth be more important than having a place to store your "Roo" and
"Mom, can we please go to the Disney store and find a Roo for my pocket?"

Time for Us





Happy 2014 everyone! So excited for the fresh start that a new calendar year always brings. These last
few years have been about rebuilding our lives as a family, and now we are finally at a place where we
can begin to move forward together. I have a pretty long list of resolutions (all important) but at the top
will always be to make more time for us:)
