Hello! I'm Valerie and welcome to my channel where I will be sharing my life in the sewing room. Sewing is my number 1 but I also love to crochet, embroider, and do anything crafty so if that sounds like your jam stick around :)

A big thank you to everyone who entered the giveaway! I'm going to be putting all the names into a spreadsheet and then using a random number generator to pick the winner. I'm so excited to ship this out to one of you! If you missed the giveaway this time don't worry, I'm going to be doing more of these on my channel and still go give it a watch because I show off some amazing fabrics from one of my favorite fabric shops Blackbird Fabrics!

I took Instagram off of my phone recently! It has been a pretty positive experience so far and I think I will continue with the experiment for the foreseeable future. The thing I miss most is just sharing random things I'm making at the moment and chatting about it with everyone. This made me realize that I have a community tab here on YouTube that I am not using...so why not start!?! I talk about Minnie ears that I made for our trip to Disney for my sister's birthday in my latest video. Here are pics of some of the ones I made. Have you made Disney ears before? Let me know if so and if you had as much fun as I did making them 🤗

Hello!! I posted a video Saturday, not my usual day, and it's a fun one for sure. Jordan and I had a lot of fun editing this video and they even made all of the music for it as well 💫 If you missed it, it's all about how I put together those patchwork sleeves for my Anthropologie inspired hoodie...thanks always for being such a supportive community! Ya'll are truly the best 🤗

I've been busy sewing away this past week! If you follow me over on Instagram you would have seen that I sewed up the Closet Core Blanca Flight Suit. I'm so happy with how it came out and proud of myself for finally tackling that project. Now I'm sewing some quick jersey makes for some quick wins and will be compiling all the things into my next makes video. BUT first I am working on the patchwork sleeved hoodie video so watch this space for that 👀

In my latest video I was embroidering a pair of Converse shoes that I thrifted. I have 1 shoe complete and as promised I’m showing them off 💅🏻
Also, if you haven’t watched my Q&A video please do go give it a watch!

Happy Holidays everyone!
I mentioned in my latest video that I was going to do a craft with me while I answer your questions video once I hit 2k subscribers, and I'm chuffed to say that we got there! So, ask me ANYTHING. It doesn't have to be sewing/craft related I'm an open book. You can leave your questions in the comments below. I will also be pulling the ones from my last video and I'll be putting up a poll over on my Instagram as well.
I hope you all are having a peaceful day wherever you are and know that I truly appreciate everyone of you who watch my videos and engage with me here on YouTube. It has really made this year so much more fun! 🍾

Hello everyone! I am going to be filming another video soon but wanted to say thank you to those who have left such sweet comments on my last couple videos. I knew I would enjoy making content on sewing but I have also started to really enjoy documenting my own life in a way that I wouldn't be if it wasn't for this channel, and when you all can see how much I enjoy it and comment it really warms my heart!
If you missed it, and are interested to see what I've been up to here it is...
