In this Friday Sews episode, I’m sitting down with you for a cozy catch-up and a proper little Sew-&-Stitch haul moment—patterns, plans, and all the crafty daydreaming that comes with it. I finally tackled the Houndstooth Wool Bomber (Aveil) jacket pattern from Mood Fabrics, and I’m sharing how it came together and why I’m so tickled with the finished look. If you love a classic shape with a bold, wintery fabric, this one is such a fun make to sink your teeth into. I’m also sewing up a circle wool handbag to match the bomber, because you know I love when an outfit feels “pulled together” without being fussy. Then I’m diving into what I’ve got brewing for 2026—crochet, needlework, and some big sewing projects that’ll keep me happily busy. If you’re here for upcycling inspiration, pattern chatter, and that Friday Sews kind of sewing-room visit, grab your coffee or tea and come stitch along with me.
