Sarah NaomiHello everybody! In this video I make the Seamwork Hansie Top (a free beginner sewing pattern for woven fabrics) step-by-step and three different ways; each increasing in complexity from beginner to more advanced techniques including handling transparent fabrics, adding an underlining, and adding embroidery. The simplicity of the design and elegant details makes this pattern super versatile, quick to sew, and a great fabric stash buster to boot! I hope these projects inspire you and also… this video took *forever* to make! Enjoy!

This summer, my husband and I vacationed for a week in the French Alps (by the Serre-Ponçon lake and the Mount Morgon), and I was able to pack an almost exclusively handmade travel wardrobe! It had to be versatile for both hot summer days and cool mountain breezes, but also a wide variety of summer activities! From hiking to visiting small mountain towns, swimming, kayaking, and relaxing with a book in the sun, there were a lot of elements to take into account! I’m happy to say that not only did I succeed, but this was, by far, the best August vacation in France that we’ve ever been on, and we’d visit this region again in a heartbeat 🏔️✨

I’ve been wanting to try a zero-waste sewing project for ages, and I finally took the plunge after discovering the book “Zero Waste Patterns” by Birgitta Helmersson. In this video, I attempt to make an A-line, elasticated waist, midi-length linen skirt in black & white gingham… and oh boy, let’s just say it did *not* go to plan 😂
I hope you enjoy watching how I try to salvage this project and ultimately get a skirt I will actually wear out of it, despite multiple trials and tribulations! 😖⇢🥰

In this video, I sew the free, beginner-friendly Sew Over It Ruby Skirt pattern two different ways: first, in a white eyelet fabric with an added lining, and second, in a gorgeous striped linen with extra volume added at the side seams.
Both versions added their own challenges—working with eyelet fabric, adding a lining, and pattern-matching stripes—but I’m so pleased with how they turned out! With its elasticated back waistband, the Ruby skirt is not only beautiful but also super comfortable to wear. Perfect for swishing around and staying cool for the rest of the summer ☀️😎

In today’s video, I’m sewing the Seamwork Joss Pants, a simple, breezy, high-waisted, wide-leg pant pattern that’s perfect for summer. Even better, this pattern is free for a limited time as part of Seamwork’s Summer 2025 promotion! 🌿
I used a beautiful 100% linen fabric in a celadon green from my stash (originally from Sacrés Coupons in Paris), and I walk you through my thoughts on the fit, fabric choice, sewing process, and final result. These pants turned out even better than expected, and I share some honest reflections about the process and how sewing has helped me through a difficult moment.
Let me know if you love making and wearing linen pants too, and which patterns you’d recommend!

I hope you enjoy! 😊

This vlog is a relaxed recap of the trip - from the (mostly handmade) wardrobe I packed, to time spent with friends in the region I grew up in, bookshopping and fabric browsing throughout, and a peek at the sewing notions, books, and classic American pantry staples I brought back home with me 😊

There’s also a bit of spring baking (lemon & blueberry scones!), repotting new plants, and a peaceful walk to admire the new blooms. It’s a quiet, cozy vlog full of seasonal making — and a little handmade magic! ✨

From soft and stretchy tees to sweaters, a cozy cardigan, and even a sweater dress, I focused on making pieces that feel as comforting as they look. Along the way, I also dabbled in traditional Japanese embroidery (Kogin-zashi) and kept chipping away at a never-ending knitting project!
In this video, I’m sharing everything I made this winter—the hits, the challenges, and what I’ve learned along the way. I hope you enjoy this look back at a creative season of making! 🧵❄️

Instead of a perfectly structured sewing weekend, this vlog captures the reality of making: finishing a cozy sweater, attempting (and failing) to bake comforting cookies, heading into Paris to pick up some notions, and unexpectedly starting a brand-new project.
Things didn’t go as planned, but this mini-break rekindled my sewing motivation — and that’s the best outcome I could have hoped for. I hope you enjoy this cozy, unfiltered look at a winter sewing break! 🧵❄️

So before I pack my summer clothes away until next year, I wanted to show you everything I made 😊
From a few new swishy dresses to comfortable linen shorts that fit just right, summer tees and tops, a few knitted summer pieces, and a luxurious silk robe, I sewed up a storm this season!

As usual, I have so many creative ideas and projects that I’d like to get to that it’s hard to think straight! It’s even more intense this year since it stormed and rained almost non-stop from October to June and I’m going a bit lack-of-sunlight crazy. 😂
I’ve done my best to organize my ideas in this *somewhat* less cohesive video than usual, but there you go, that is the general sense of what’s going on in my head during my favorite season! Enjoy!

In only about 6 weeks I’ll be traveling to Japan with my husband on our honeymoon and we both cannot wait! To mark the occasion in my own crafty way, I’ve planned a mostly handmade travel wardrobe of beloved handmades from my closet as well as new creations. I resisted setting my heart on making *all* the fabulous outfits I could imagine with two very useful tools: the Seamwork Wardrobe Planner and a fashion croquis of my own silhouette! I think I’ve come up with a very reasonable plan indeed, now I just need to get to it and start sewing up a storm!
In this episode, I’m wearing one of my Sew Over It Heather dresses! If you’d like to see my full collection of sweater dresses, check out this video: My Handmade Sweater Dress Collection: A Love Story ❤️
