Today's video is all about jumpsuits. I was asked by Vee @85thAndWade if I wanted to make a video for a sewing challenge that she's hosting this month on Instagram. It's #SewRompJumpPlay22 and is an opportunity to celebrate jumpsuits and overalls for National Jumpsuit and National Overalls Day on October 26th. In today's video, I talk about my experience of sewing and wearing jumpsuits, running through the jumpsuits that I've made. At the end, I share my plans for this challenge and ask for your help to pick a fabric to use for the project. Feel free to skip ahead to chapters that interest you.
