After an unexpected multi month absence, I'm back! I filmed a few videos during my absence, and am currently editing. Hope to see you soon!

PS I'm wearing the Style Arc Byron Top with a small ruffle added to the bottom, and am holding one of my Style Arc Zalia Tops. I've been sewing quite a few Style Arc patterns lately.

Here we are almost at the end of January, and the only sewing I have done is a jacket and altering an evening gown for a friend.

I was buried in tulle, glitter, and beads 😂 I removed a layer of netting from the underskirt, shortened the straps, and made the bodice smaller (which meant resewing the invisible zipper and hand sewing beads back on in places where they had to be removed.)

What have you been sewing?

From my family to yours, I wish you a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

I’m on a holiday break, and will be back in January with a sewing chat channel update video, a 2024 makes video, as well as another patchwork tutorial video

I hope you have a blessed season and I will see you in 2025! 💋

Thanks for the love on my last video ( the scrappy patchwork letters and on a sweatshirt) AND for helping me achieve 10K subscribers!

Y’all are the BEST, and I’m thrilled that you continue to join me here on this channel. 💋🥰😀

A video was just posted! It’s a tutorial showing how to make scrappy patchwork letters and add them to a sweatshirt.

I have been seeing similar oversized sweatshirts in boutiques, and thought “what a cute gift idea”. Of course, I made them myself so I could choose the colors I wanted for my recipients.

Don’t forget to watch the outtakes, as my big dog makes an appearance 😀🐶

A little behind-the-scenes look for you. I have been experimenting with filming tutorials. This is my current set up when I want to show the machine stitching. The awkward angle of the sewing machine, combined with the tripod in my sight line makes the actual sewing a little bit challenging 😂

I have been sewing on my BERNINA 535, which is a great little work horse, since my BERNINA 770 QE PLUS has been away for her annual maintenance.

I’ve started sewing from my recent Sr Harris fabric purchases. This is the stretch velvet animal print, that I purchased to make a T-shirt. Just a step above casual, perfect for me to pair with jeans.
Have you seen the video of the fabrics yet?

I was in MN recently helping a family member move. While there I stopped into SR Harris (of course 😀). I present to you my smallest SR fabric purchase ever 😂

About a month ago, I filmed this Sew the Look video but then life happened and I was unable to finish the edit and publish - until now!

But Summer has not come to an end so there’s still time to sew a few summer looks.

Check out the video and let me know your thoughts. I matched up RTW looks with McCall, Simplicity and Butterick patterns.
