The patches!! 😍 Sewing 101 students have been adding their own little finishing touches to their projects and we are **obsessed** with the results.

A personalized name patch! The tiny dog on the striped pouch! 🐶✨ Such a simple detail, but SO much personality. We love seeing students take the skills they’re learning and make each project completely their own.

The sewing skills are one thing—the **vision** is all them. 👏🧵

✨ It all starts tonight. ✨

Our **Heather Blazer Workshop** kicks off this evening, and we can’t wait to see a new group of makers dive into one of our favorite sewing projects.

From mastering tailoring techniques to celebrating that final button, this workshop is full of those moments that remind us why we love to sew. Watching students put on a blazer they made themselves never gets old.

To everyone joining us tonight—we’ll see you soon! And to everyone else, enjoy a little look back at the incredible blazers from our last workshop. 💙🧵

We recently added the **Collage Gather Top by Matchy Matchy Sewing Club** as an option in Sewing 201: Tops & Dresses, and this student version has us very happy we did. ✨

The gathered silhouette is such a fun way to play with shape and volume while building on the sewing skills you learned in Sewing 101. And there’s nothing better than walking out of class in a top you made yourself. 🧵

Ready to move beyond the basics and start sewing clothes you’ll actually want to wear? **Sewing 201: Tops & Dresses** is your next step.

The best reason to take Sewing 101? Ask the people who’ve already done it. 🧵✨

We asked past Sewing 101 students to tell us—in one sentence—why YOU should sign up. Here’s what they said:

💬 “You’ll learn the foundation of an invaluable skill!”
💬 “Builds sewing confidence.”
💬 “To conquer your fear of sewing.”
💬 “Community of learners.”

That’s exactly what Sewing 101 is about. You don’t need to know how to thread a machine. You don’t need to be “crafty.” You definitely don’t need to be good at sewing already.

You just need to start.

Over four weeks, we’ll take you from *I have no idea what I’m doing* to confidently using a sewing machine and actually making things you can take home and say, **“I made this.”**

And you’ll do it alongside a whole group of people learning right along with you. ❤️

Our August Sewing 101 classes have seats open, and we’d LOVE to fill them with some brand-new sewists. Come learn the skill our former students think you should have, too.

Easy, breezy, and made for summer ☀️🌿

This neutral linen Benning Dress was made by one of our Sewing 201: Tops & Dresses students, and we can’t think of a better warm-weather combination. Lightweight linen, a relaxed silhouette, and that extra satisfaction of saying, “Thanks, I made it!” ✨

Sewing your own clothes means making a summer wardrobe that feels completely *you*—fabric, fit, details and all.

There’s nothing quite like the moment you finish your very first sewing project. ✨

Just a few weeks ago, these students had little or no sewing experience. Now they’re leaving with handmade projects they’re genuinely proud of—and the confidence to keep creating.

If you’ve been saying, *”I’ve always wanted to learn to sew,”* this is your sign. Sewing 101 is designed for complete beginners, and we’ll guide you every step of the way in a fun, welcoming environment.

🧵 August classes are filling now, and we’d love to see you in the studio. Reserve your spot before they’re gone!

One pattern. Endless possibilities.

From timeless wool to breezy linen to bold statement fabrics, the Heather transforms with every fabric choice—and every version is one you’ll actually wear.

A dress you’ll reach for again and again. 🤍

This beautiful handmade was sewn by one of our talented students in **Sewing 201: Tops & Dresses**—proof of what you can create once you’ve mastered the basics. From garment construction to finishing details, you’ll build skills that open the door to an entire handmade wardrobe.

✨ **Our next session starts August 8**
🧵 **Only 4 spots remain**

If you’re ready to move beyond beginner projects and start sewing clothes you’ll actually love wearing, this is your class.
