I maintain that, despite all the Christmassy marketing, autumn goes until mid-December, which means I’m only a month late in makeing this quarterly sewing round-up! So much happened for me in the world of sewing in the fall of 2021 and I’m so excited to finally share with you! October In October,

Sometimes these posts make me feel like a fourth grader when the teacher says “Go home and write a report about what you did over the summer.” Only I’m turning mine in a bit late. My summer was so full of sewing and friends and family. It was wonderful, but I didn’t

It’s pretty embarrassing to be writing this in July. In May I started the process of switching the website over and it took waaaay longer than I expected. Then life happened and I lost steam, so here we are talking about sewing projects from two months ago. Pattern Testing I didn’t expect

I’m a little late to the year-end reflection party, but I’m late to most things. I won’t try to sum up all that 2020 was for the world. It was tough on all of us, but it was different for all of us too. And for me it was hard, humbling, lonely,

I quite enjoy reviewing and assessing my wardrobe, especially at the start of a new season. I love the One Year Sewn format created by Vicky of Sewstainabity. In gearing up for cooler weather, I pulled my cozy clothes out of storage and welcomed them back into my closet. So, how am

It’s September! Now I’m a firm believer that it is still summer all the way up to September 22nd! However I can’t deny feeling a certain crispness in the morning air and that change in the air. Though it’s not quite autumn yet, summer has definitely begun making her exit. But before
