From our last Sunday at Sewing Club ✂️

This week’s projects included:

🧙 A custom cloak for a monkey stuffy
✂️ A second skirt finished this month, complete with ribbon trim
🎀 A scrunchie with a removable bow
🧸 A tiny handmade stuffy

Not bad for one afternoon in the studio!

Monthly Sewing Club returns in September, and I can’t wait to see what everyone creates next. 🧵

Alex’s jumpsuit: done! ✂️✨

It took a few extra classes, a few modifications, and plenty of problem-solving along the way, but that’s what sewing is all about.

One of my favourite things about the studio is that projects can fit your schedule, your pace, and your style. Life gets busy, creativity ebbs and flows, but we’ll keep working through it together until you have something you’re proud to wear.

And this one was absolutely worth the journey. 💛

After nearly 14 years together, I finally got him behind a sewing machine. 😂

Turns out making something yourself is pretty addictive.

If you’ve got a dad, husband, grandfather, or partner who’s ever said “I wish I knew how to do that,” this class is for him.

A fun Father’s Day gift that won’t end up in a drawer by July.

Only 3 spots left. ✂️🧵

One of my favourite things about Flex Passes?

Sometimes you’re the only one in the studio!

Just you, your ideas, and a fashion designer helping bring them to life.

Monday evening Mira and I drafted a custom sweater vest pattern, she learned to use the serger, and started turning an idea into a real garment.

These are the moments I love most about teaching !

3 out of 5 students finished their shorts during our one-day workshop.

A reminder that everyone works at their own pace… and that I have a hard time saying no to extra details. 😂

The goal is always to learn real sewing skills, not rush through a project. Sometimes that means adding pockets, tweaking designs, or making adjustments along the way when something doesn’t work exactly as planned.

Because that’s real sewing!

By the next day, all 5 students had finished their shorts and every pair was completely unique 💕

Not bad for a single day workshop! ☀️🩳✂️

So proud of this group and everything they accomplished

Are we all thinking summer vibes?! ☀️🩷

Today we had two finished skirts, a beautiful hoodie with a palm tree-lined hood and ruffle hem, and a fully lined lilac zipper pouch come off the sewing machines!

I love seeing how different everyone’s projects are. Some students are making clothes they’ll wear all summer, while others are building skills one project at a time. Either way, they’re creating some pretty amazing things. ✂️✨

So proud of these sewists! 💕

Can we just take a minute for these dresses?! 😍👗
These girls have been working so hard and their skills are growing so fast.

Nothing beats watching a project go from a pile of fabric to a dress you can actually wear 🤍

And if these are any indication, I can't wait to see what comes out of this summer's Flex Passes ☀️✨

If your brain didn’t immediately go “AAUUUGHH?” we might not be the same generation 😂
Prom season = tulle. So much tulle. 👗✂️
