2020 Sewing Plans
My thoughts on sewing my handmade wardrobe and #make3in3
I’ve uploaded a video (vlog) to my Youtube Channel about my sewing plans for the next 3 months.
Basically I’ve 3 main projects I hope to sew up over the first 3 months of the year.
Since I made the video I finished the jeans over the weekend. They turned out really well using the new 11 oz stretch denim we got in the shop at the end of 2019. I plan on doing a little review of all the jeans I made last year and talk about the different types of denim.

Join our sewing community
We have a great active Facebook group where the members post photos of finished projects they have made from our fabrics to inspire your creativity, you can ask questions and someone else out there will have the answer if I don’t. Its a lovely safe environment to chat about sewing, patterns and fabric recommendations even what sewing machine to buy or where to get it serviced.
