Catching you up on my latest sewing projects — both refashions and fresh new makes.
In this video, I walk through the patterns I’ve recently revisited (and why they weren’t quite working), small tweaks that made a huge difference, and a few brand new garments I’ve sewn up and already worn. The big winner here was turning a tradwife skirt into a cute denim Ashton top.
