Hi! I'm Mackenzie Sasser.

I'm an obsessive knitter, identical twin, lefty and food maker who has a strong genetic pull to the practical. I love experiencing new things and remembering random facts.  I primarily knit but as a former Martha Stewart Living craft department intern I have dabbled in just about every craft technique out there. 

I'd love to hear from you!

I finished my first #esmadebyme Harper tunic in linen. First of many I’m sure. Thanks for Liz and the team at EZ, who wanted to make these patterns available for everyone. In gratitude I donated to @glits_inc, @mvmnt4blklives and @thelovelandfo
Real life. Finished another corduroy pillow yesterday and I love it so much! Little 30 minute sewing wins keeping me sane. This deep teal is a soft texture dream. Fabric and zips from @drygoodsdesign. I bought a 18” down pillow insert and cut 1
Happy birthday to me! I made my own cake, cut my bangs and finished up my new birthday outfit yesterday. Not gonna lie, probably would be doing the same things pre-quarantine but still felt good. . Pic in the full on sun with my skin totally blown ou
All about these little project wins right now. I have a couple apparel projects started right now but with the kids home it’s hard to get momentum. Spending an hour or two on one thing start to finish is the distraction I need. And I’m ch
I finished up this triple-gauze-dream-cloud top yesterday, on my body today and possibly everyday this week. I want to sleep in it. It feels like wearing nothing and also being wrapped in the softest blanket at the same time. I just need to give it
We spent the last 4 days in a little cabin on a creek, playing games and watching movies as a family. I read a book by myself in the hot tub everyday (once the kids got done playing😂) and knit more than I have in a while. I almost got this #oslohat
First finished project of 2020 was what I wanted to make for Christmas... I used stash fabrics and copied an apron they have already but made them reversible and with a nice sturdy pocket. Looking forward to some cooking with these two tomorrow! Fabr
My only handmade gift this year was one I started last year. 😂 this #portsidedoppkit was not easy, I killed one zipper, busted a needle, blood was shed and many swears were said. But, once I got through it I felt very accomplished and it looks reall
I came back to rain in Seattle but with some very sunny memories of being with my sisters @maloriemakes @lindsaynaylor to keep me company during the rainy season. 3 days of vacation spent in mostly me-mades and with my trusty #fennelfannypack. Summer
Spent hours and hours on the beach today wearing my just finished #zadiejumpsuit which was like wearing a secret bathrobe. So comfortable and perfect for the slightly breezy warm weather. Gotta love some pre-trip sewing, I finished the hems the night
I was today years old when I got my first facial and learned what a California burrito was. Hooray for a weekend away for moms who just want to eat all the things and be in matching nightgowns by 8 pm. ❤️ @maloriemakes @lindsaynaylor Wearing my late
We toured the amazon spheres yesterday during one of their 2 days they are open to the public, it was so layered, textural and humid! It’s a strange concept in the middle of downtown but I could help just being really happy for all the folks th
I love studio Sundays, chatting with other people on what they are making and then people watching many engagement or wedding photos happening constantly outside. I’m working on getting through my stash of fabrics I’ve labeled as “p
Teaching your partner a skill you have can be great but it can also be...tough. When Tyler revealed to me this summer that he wanted to sew, I honestly waited until he kept asking me because I didn’t believe him (like, now? Why now?). But I rea
Layering in wool to the beach, making a fire and s’mores. The best of two seasons combined.
