About Me

Matilda is stylish, clever, organized, and endlessly creative. She is the life of every party, her closet is organized by color and season, her home looks professionally decorated and is constantly spotless. Her children are perfectly behaved, always clean and adorable, and consistently on the honor roll. She posts detailed craft tutorials daily on her blog (she has 3 million followers!) and gives elaborate handmade gifts for every holiday. She is a divine inspiration in all things feminine and domestic.

Unfortunately, she doesn't exist. I'm Rachel--a wife to a chiropractor, new mom to a darling little boy, and an obsessive crocheter and sewer with too many ideas and not enough time. I put crafting ahead of cooking and crochet over cleaning. I can't remember the last time I scrubbed my bathroom, my son probably has crusty banana chunks on his shirt right now, I'll gladly sacrifice a girls' night out for more craft time, and I'll bet you money I'm still in my pajamas (what time is it, anyway? too late for pjs?). Oh well, I think I've got my priorities right!
(All right, seriously though, here's the story behind the blog name: I was pregnant, Matilda was on the "maybe" name list for a girl [it was a "yes" for me and a "what are you, crazy?" for the husband, so I'm averaging that out to "maybe"], and we had a boy, so I had to use the name on something!)

Thanks for stopping by and reading my blather; I'd love for you to stick around, and check out my etsy shop of stylish stitches!
