In this video I’m sharing everything I sewed in January — six fresh makes that took me from easy, throw-on jersey sewing to a couple of really satisfying wardrobe workhorses. It’s very much a “real life sewing month” round-up: what I actually reached for, what worked, what I’d tweak next time, and the bits that made the whole process feel cozy rather than stressful. I chat through the patterns and fabrics for each make, including the Trend Patterns Bias T-shirt Dress, a S9778 knit make, men’s True Bias Hudson Pants, my Chalk & Notch Page Hoodie, the Atelier Jupe Blake Trousers, and the Helen’s Closet Spindrift Jacket. If you like hearing how a pattern behaves in different fabrics, what I think is worth the time, and which details make a garment feel “properly finished”, this one’s for you. I also share where the fabrics came from (including some gifted goodies), plus the discount codes I use and love so you can grab patterns and supplies for less.
