Hi! I'm Jenn.
I’m a multi-disciplinary maker who loves to learn new ways of making things — taking classes, watching videos, and trying stuff out on my own. Knitting, spinning yarn, sewing clothing, and leather-working are some of the disciplines I work in. Many of my projects use all sorts of reclaimed and recycled items.

I’m the first person to admit that not all of my projects are successful.

540 months and feeling fabulous!

A friend brought over a box of fresh green figs from their neighbor’s yard, and I wanted to do something different with them than jam or pairing with blue cheese. Found a quick green fig kimchi recipe at @latimesfood and I was off and running.

I made so many new puppet friends this morning over coffee with a relative of the woman whose puppet-making materials I recently adopted. It was magical, and yes, I cried.

About Jenn

My goal is to inspire people to try new things. I’ve been craft-failing forward for years, and I believe that failure isn’t the opposite of success. It is part of it.
