Introduction I am married to the venerable Mr. Lemon and we have a daughter (formerly known as Baby Lemon). I have a bunch of degrees but teach technical writing (not one of my degrees) at one of the nation’s highest ranked party schools. We live in the student ghetto close to town and campus in a small house with an enormous yard and a summer vegetable garden. For as long as I can remember, I have been sewing. In college I took a course called Flat Pattern Design because I wanted to be able to make and alter my own clothes. My love of really awesome fabrics led me to make plush bellies out of satin, silk shantung and velvet. And then I wanted a baby so I started making baby clothes. People loved my stuff so I opened up an Etsy shop and the blog to promote it and the flickr to have more pictures. I love sewing little dresses and crazy dolls. With Project: Project, I will talk about all that process and some of the other things we consider really important to us like how we eat and the products we use, and living in a house smaller than most Manhattan apartments so that we can travel. I've recently reignited a childhood passion for miniatures and I'll occasionally post about that here.
Interests photography, sewing, my two cats, vegetable gardening, travel, modern miniatures
