Hello, friends and fellow book lovers! I'm excited to welcome you to my brand new website. Here you'll find an extensive portfolio of my handmade books and one-of-a-kind embroidery, a brand new about me page, a real contact page that works, my first FAQ, and this here blog. YAY— I'm glad you've found me!
To get started, there are a few changes I'd like to point out. My blog is no longer my homepage— it now lives here, at kittycatstevens.com/blog. This has caused some issues, like figuring out how to update all the ways my amazing readers can find me or subscribe, losing all my old comments, and causing lots of links to change, but I am overall happy with the newness.
Next up, you might notice that my archives are significantly shorter then they used to be. This is because I didn't import all of my old content to this new site. This was a hard decision, but there are a few reasons behind it:
So, you're probably wondering what I will be blogging about! That's a good question— one I actually answered with a Venn diagram for you:
I've thought a lot about what I like to write about, what my readers enjoy, and how they overlap. Technically, I will only be blogging about two things—bookcraft stitchery. But the beauty is that for me, books and sewing overlap in so many ways that it allows me to write about everything I love.
This is getting long winded, so I am going to wrap it up! Basically, if you like books, embroidery, diy fashion, poetry, vintage handmade goods, peeping into other people's sketchbooks, and all things paper or snail mail— then you're in the right place.
If you're new to Kitty Cat Stevens, then:
Hi, I'm Jenna, it's nice to meet you!
