What sewing related items would you be tempted to empty your wallet on lately? A new machine, a fancy iron or nicer cutting tools...? For me, FABRIC! I just went to my local quilt shop and was so tempted to rescue Uhhhh I mean adopt, uhhhh Ok I mean BUY SO many pretty yards of fabric. No project in mind for said fabric but that's beside the point right?? How about you, any sewing goodies tempting you lately? Also, here's the latest update on my sweatshirt turned quilt coat. I will put the inspiration link in the comments.

Most people think learning to sew means jumping straight into a project; BUT that’s actually one of the biggest reasons beginners get frustrated. When you’re first learning to sew, you really need to get comfortable with a few core skills first, like: • sewing straight lines • controlling the fabric • understanding your machine • learning basic sewing terminology That’s why inside The Sewing Academy I teach beginners using paper practice sheets first, so you build confidence before moving into projects. Once those basics click, sewing suddenly becomes much easier. If you’re new to sewing, tell me in the comments: What part of sewing feels the most intimidating right now?

Let's get to know each other! Comment below sharing where you are in the world, a photo of your sewing space, and why you would like to learn how to sew. 🪡
