In this #FridaySews I’m doing a “thrift with me” for my fall sewing plans—aka me standing in the aisles asking, “Am I crazy… do you like it?” while I hunt for pieces that can turn into cozy, wearable makes. September is National Sewing Month, so I’m leaning into that fresh-start energy and planning projects that feel fun, practical, and a little bit boho—because that’s just how I sew. I’m looking at thrifted garments and fabrics with an upcycler’s eye: shape, drape, texture, and how much I can get out of one find. I also chat through patterns and inspiration that are on my radar for the season—things like pull-on jeans, jackets, skirts, and bags—plus where I’m sourcing. If you’re building your own fall sew list, this is the kind of video you put on while you’re cutting fabric or folding laundry: lots of ideas, a little “should I?” energy, and the reminder that you don’t need perfect supplies to make something you love. Thrifting + sewing is my favorite combo because it keeps things creative, budget-friendly, and sustainable.
