Hey friends! In this #fridaysews episode, I’m catching up with you on what I’ve been sewing lately, sharing a few finished makes, and chatting about getting a little Christmas head start (because future-me is always grateful when I do). This is truly my favorite time of the week—just a cozy check-in where we can talk projects, patterns, and all the little sewing wins that keep me motivated. I also share what I’m wearing today—my Ellie and Mac Staycation Dress—plus I point you toward a handful of patterns and ideas that are on my radar right now. If you’re in the mood for garment sewing, I mention a couple of Simplicity options and the Little Lizard King Hamilton dress. And if you’re wanting something quick and satisfying, I shout out a free scrunchie pattern that’s perfect for using up scraps. For my quilty friends, the Stars and Stripes quilt pattern is a fun one to consider when you’re ready for a bold, classic look. Grab a drink, sew along with me, and let’s chat in the comments!
