In this weekend vlog, I’m hanging out with my mommy and taking y’all along for a real-life sewing weekend—errands, fabric shopping, and a little project time. We stop at Alpha Plus Fabrics (Stone Mountain, GA), and I’m sharing the kind of in-the-moment thoughts I actually have when I’m looking at fabric in person: what catches my eye, what I’m thinking about making, and how I’m mentally pairing fabric with patterns. Back at home, I work on a zipper tote, which is one of those projects that’s practical but still lets you practice clean construction. If you’re trying to get more comfortable with zippers, bags are a great way to build that confidence without the pressure of fitting a garment. This video is really about sewing as a lifestyle—shopping your ideas, planning your makes, and enjoying the process with the people you love. If you want more behind-the-scenes planning and pattern talk, I also share where you can follow my planning channel and grab my patterns.
