Who knew a hole in your jeans could look this good?! 🪡✨

Emily’s jeans are proof that a little visible mending can turn everyday wear and tear into something worth showing off. We’re obsessed with how this colorful darning adds personality while giving a well-loved pair of jeans a whole new lease on life.

Want to learn how to do it yourself? Join us Evil Genius B**r on December 1 for a fun evening of stitching, sipping, and learning the art of visible mending! 🍻

Because sometimes the best way to fix something is to make the repair the star of the show.

This is why we love seeing what you make! 💙 Our Sewing 201: Jackets & Robes student made the by Friday Pattern Company, pairing a brilliant blue with patterned pockets and a matching collar. Those details give this jacket so much personality!

There’s something pretty special about wearing a piece you made yourself—and getting to say “Thanks, I made it!” when the compliments roll in. 🧵✨

Meet Leah, who’s learning to quilt with some very special fabric. 🤍

Her grandma was an avid quilter, and Leah had always wanted to learn from her. After her grandma recently passed away, Leah brought fabric from her grandma’s stash to begin making a quilt of her own—a gift for her mom.

It’s such a meaningful way to carry on something her grandma loved, with fabric she chose and saved. We’re so glad to be a small part of helping Leah bring this quilt to life.

Hello, October! 🎃

We’re kicking off the month with a little Throwback Thursday magic from our past adult-child Halloween workshops. Tiny hands, big ideas, and some wonderfully spooky things made together at the Sew Shop.

Which Halloween project would you want to make with your little one? 👻🧵

Those curves! Those colors! We had to share this gorgeous quilt. 😍

If it has you itching to try quilting, our Quilted Pillow workshop is a place to start. In one five-hour class on Sunday Nov 15, you’ll learn the basics while making a quilted pillow—or a “Quillow,” as we call it.



Join us November 15! 🧵

Can we take a moment for this Pona Jacket? 🤩

Made by one of our Sewing 201: Jackets & Robes students, and already looking like the jacket she’s going to reach for all fall. The shape, the collar, the pockets—and that smile when she tried it on. We love seeing a project come together this beautifully. 🧵

The fitting room moment when you realize you made the top you’re trying on. 🤍

Our October Loungewear Set sold out, so we opened a new section starting December 6! Choose the patterns that feel most like you, make a cozy set you’ll actually want to wear, and pick up new skills along the way. And if you want a smaller project, we have Cardigans or Sweaters + Turtlenecks workshops coming up too for all your cozy sewing needs.

When you and your best friend have completely different fashion personalities, but both say, “Wait, you made that?”

One’s running around town in barrel-leg pants and a crossbody bag. The other has a blazer and somewhere to be. Every piece they’re wearing was made in one of our classes or workshops—which is our favorite thing about sewing: you get to make clothes that feel like you.
