Hi! I'm Raven, I'm a sewing, fashion and DIY lover based in Jackson, MS. My love for sewing started at a young age, but it wasn't until I took a clothing design class in high school that I learned a lot of technical details of sewing and garment construction. Since I started my blog, I've been sewing more consistently than ever before and my closet is about 80% handmade!
