Maple & Embers is a creative field journal rooted in observation, curiosity, and the joy of making. Through knitting, gardening, watercolor, photography, sewing, and other creative studies, I explore how ideas take shape and slowly become something more.

I'm drawn to things that feel soft, intentional, and comforting - pieces and practices that invite us to slow down and notice the details. The way light moves through a garden, how colors interact, the texture of a fabric swatch, or how a garment settles onto a body all become sources of inspiration.

What began as a love of knitting and crochet has grown into a broader creative practice centered around studying, experimenting, and translating observations into tangible pieces. I spend a lot of time swatching, collecting inspiration, exploring color relationships, and following sparks wherever they lead.

This space isn't about mastering a single medium. It's about allowing creativity to evolve naturally and documenting the process along the way.

Thank you for being here and studying creativity with me.
