I just got home from five unforgettable days in Tahoe at the ASG Sewing Retreat, and y’all… my love for sewing is lit right back up. In this Friday Sews-style show & tell, I’m chatting through what made the week so special—the mountain backdrop, the workshops and talks, and that feeling you only get when you’re surrounded by people who truly get why we’d rather be stitching than doing just about anything else. I also share some of the makes and patterns that were part of the fun, plus the little practical details that make retreat sewing smoother—like having the right travel-friendly tools and a good way to carry your gear. More than anything, this video is a cozy reminder that sewing isn’t just projects and fabric… it’s community, creativity, and that deep satisfaction of making something with your own hands. If you’ve been in a slump, I hope this gives you the nudge to pull out a project and fall in love with sewing all over again.
