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.

Macca *is not* to be trusted around anything yarn related. (Yes, I’m talking to you, goofball.) I walked out for the room for a moment and when I came back he had already grabbed the yarn and brought it back to his bed.

This guy. Macca keeping a watchful eye out for squirrels who trespass in the yard. Pretty sure some of them are deliberately trying to taunt him.

Discovered my Dad’s ham radio handheld transceiver on a recent trip home. Perfect opportunity to recreate some childhood photos 🥰 📸

Macca is not a fan of stairs. He’s confused and freezes up when we return from a walk.

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.
