Welcome to a small BATCH, a family of creative projects!
Hi! I’m Mika -
I’m a poet, a fiber artist, a student, a teacher, and a maker. I believe humans are innately creative, joyful, playful, and curious; and that those are among our most valuable attributes.
At the core of everything I do with a small BATCH are the twin projects of connecting to my own creativity,
& supporting others in connecting with their creativity.
The art I make and the writing I do is the playful making that grounds me. Supporting others in their own creative practices invigorates me.

everything I know I learned from my mom…
A STITCHER IN TIME
My connection to creativity is a gift I received first from my family - a wild group of makers, builders, artists, crafters, and creative thinkers (often busy working seemingly uncreative day-jobs to make ends meet - a creative practice in its own right). My amazing mom has been putting her creativity to work on quilts and sewing projects for decades as A Stitcher in Time. From heirloom quilts to keep you family cozy to aprons to make your messiest work bright & cheerful, shop her beautiful sewn goods here. Expand your own creative practice by using her sewing patterns to make your own aprons! Find patterns, quilts & more from A Stitcher in Time here!
