chez sucre chez: June 2014
http://chezsucrechez.blogspot.com/2014_06_01_archive.html
25 June, 2014. Hey friends, it's my birthday, and I've got love to share - - my gift to you is an extra 15% off any item currently listed in the shop. Everything is on sale already, anyways, so this works out to be an extra deal! AAAAnd, as I'm packing up the studio and finding LOTS of little treasures, and cool supplies, and other fun stuff, I'll add an extra surprise or two to your order envelope or box. You just need to use coupon code FABULOUS40 at checkout. (40, crazy, right? Xo, friends. -k. After ...

chez sucre chez: April 2014
http://chezsucrechez.blogspot.com/2014_04_01_archive.html
15 April, 2014. Here, the latest off my hoop:. This is the project that I'd started before and taken with me to Italy, but not really worked on at all when I was there. I finished it up last week and am quite happy with the way it turned out; I absolutely love the colors. The motif of moths is a recurring one for me. One of my first tattoos was of a moth, and then, years later when I started stitching, one of my very first original cross-stitch projects was the silhouette of a moth. (See it here. Vacatio...

chez sucre chez: November 2014
http://chezsucrechez.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
21 November, 2014. Oh hiiiiy. It's been a while, I know. I'm sorry. I'm taking some time to adjust to all of the changes I've taken on over the past several months. It's taking me longer, and taking quite a bit more focus and energy than I'd anticipated. But things are falling into place. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile.

chez sucre chez: May 2014
http://chezsucrechez.blogspot.com/2014_05_01_archive.html
08 May, 2014. Rediscovered Travel Inspiration (Barcelona). I'm a pretty terrible blogger anymore, huh? I've written a score of blog posts in my head over the past week or two or three, and none of them have made it here yet. Ooops. For today, I just wanted to check in and post a few random shots that I found while digging around on my old hard-drive. The following are from a trip to Spain that I took way back in 2004 with one of my best friends. We visited Park Guell. Looking at them now, I'm swooning ov...

chez sucre chez: January 2014
http://chezsucrechez.blogspot.com/2014_01_01_archive.html
15 January, 2014. This is what it looks like when I'm working on new patterns:. Creating design elements, and then adding, subtracting, and dragging them around to come up with the layouts I had in mind. I usually create new files for each new design, but as you can see here, I did most of my recent kit designs on the same palette. 06 January, 2014. It's been nearly a month since my last post. Yikes! I'll be back here at the end of this week with some photos and a proper post. Happy new year, friends!

chez sucre chez: shine like a new pin
http://chezsucrechez.blogspot.com/2012/07/shine-like-new-pin.html
13 July, 2012. Shine like a new pin. If you subscribe to my twitter, instagram, or the chez-sucre-chez facebook feeds, you may have already seen this. i was quite tickled with it when i finished and framed it up.(i still am completely tickled with it.) in all my busy-ness with renegade, though, i never got around to posting it here, and i just realized that today. oops! Stay gold" piece i did sold at my little exhibit at THIS gallery in los angeles. Here's that piece a few days before renegade:. Stay gol...

chez sucre chez: leaves of grass
http://chezsucrechez.blogspot.com/2009/03/leaves-of-grass.html
20 March, 2009. I'm happy because i figured out how to more efficiently make multiples of my green grass totes and i like the way they've turned out:. Since embroidering each blade of grass was just waaaaaay too labor-intensive, i went the route of making a stamp and printing them. i cut each blade of grass from that weird foam stuff (that all kids crafts seem to use these days) and then glued it to another piece that i used as the stamp mount. it worked pretty well! And then i moved onto the totes:.

chez sucre chez: roses redux
http://chezsucrechez.blogspot.com/2013/04/roses-redux.html
23 April, 2013. A few years ago, i was on a kick where I was really into stitching roses. (See this post here. And this post here. Well, I'm back on that kick. I wish I had more of this color aida cloth, and could offer it as the color for the Calico Flowers kit! And then I did that rose piece (bottom of this post here. And I was thinking that I would create a new kit/pattern using them. Instead, however, I started stitching roses. First I did some tea towels, as I had done before. Then, howe...I really ...

chez sucre chez: Drumroll, please
http://chezsucrechez.blogspot.com/2014/06/drumroll-please.html
17 June, 2014. Okay - big news to share today, friends:. After over six years of doing chez-sucre-chez as my only full-time and regular means of income and employment, an opportunity has come up that I cannot refuse. I've been given the chance to pursue my one true other love as a maker - baking. Come July, I will be the lead baker at a new coffee shop opening up in Flemington, New Jersey. I know, right? It's kind of a big deal. At least, it's a big change. So, this is happening! However, I'm not leaving...
