Join me for a cozy, chatty catch-up as I share all the latest from my sewing (dining) room! In this video, I’m talking through my recently finished sewing projects, giving you a closer look at the details, fabric choices, and how they turned out. I’ll also be sharing a finished knitting project and what’s new on my knitting needles. There’s also some crochet and reading too!
Plus, I have some beautiful new fabric additions to show you, along with my sewing plans for the upcoming weeks. If you're looking for a bit of inspiration, whether for your next handmade wardrobe piece or just to get motivated to sew, I hope this video sparks some ideas!
I’d love to hear from you—what have you been sewing (or knitting) lately? Let me know in the comments!
