Facings! What's your opinion on them? This week it's all about facings vs. bias tape vs. lining. Also how to fit all the pieces on when you don't have enough fabric, recreating my Copper Dress, and I'm in need of a campfire to throw these danged shorts into! Join with me to debate, to laugh, and to spend a little bit of time talking about forgiveness and its power.
@Lara_Osman who shows us how to copy and draft ready-to-wear
@Threads on how to construct an all-in-one facing
The patterns:
Simplicity 8640: My favorite dress (and @FarrellFocus 's too!)
McCall's 6952 - my Copper Dress
McCall's 8681 - jeans skirt
McCall's 8611 - tailored shorts with pants and shirt
Butterick 7038 - shirt dress
Simplicity 9755 - top, skirt, pants, and shorts (that I want to set on fire)
Style 2282 from 1993, sundress, top and skirt
Butterick 5354 from 2009 - t-shirt and tank with pleated neckline

Since there just wasn't much going on this week in my sewing room, I thought I'd take you on a little trip back to 1920 and the Wright's Bias Tape company. I have several of these 100+ year old books that I want to share with you. Here's the first.

SHOWER CURTAIN DRESS STARTS AT 10:42
Yep - it's another shower curtain dress! This week is all about restoring a dress I made 40 years ago, putting pockets into a dress and sprucing it up with a little gizmo, and copying a dress . . . with that shower curtain. All that, plus the horrors of the old testament versus the way Jesus values us as women.
0:00 - 0:08 Intro
0:09 - 6:22 Can this 40-year old sundress be saved?
6:23 - 10:41 Jhuzzing up a thrifted dress with a clever gizmo
10:42 - 14:37 A new shower curtain dress!
14:38 - 16:50 Bargain linen! What a deal!
16:51 - 18:08 Stephanie at Stephanie Farrell Focus
18:09 - 24:26 Little Bit of Jesus
24:27 - 24:55 Final thoughts

Even this Grandma can wear a crop top now! Here's a simple fix that will glam up that little top of yours that's just too short, using a thrifted shirt and a leftover bamboo sheet. Lemme know what you think!

After an incredible trip to Greece, I’m finally back home and trying to get back into real life… slowly 😅
So here's a little post-vacation reset, some thrifting and upcycling ideas, and the struggle of trying to save my white linen skirt after an unfortunate coffee stain situation ☕🤍 Plus, I’m honestly just exhausted and trying to find my rhythm again after traveling. Can you relate?
The pattern: McCall's 7538 simplicity.com/mccalls/pdm7538

This week’s Friday Sews is a mix of progress, surprises, and a few lessons learned along the way…
I’m continuing to work on my capsule wardrobe for Greece, and I’ve made some good progress—but also discovered a design I had completely forgotten I planned (honestly… who am I? 😄).
Thanks so much for spending some time with me today 🤍

In this week’s Friday Sews, I’m deep in the glamorous world of… muslins. 😄
(aka the practice garments that make sure the real clothes don’t end up in the “what was I thinking” pile)
I’m working on a few tops for our upcoming trip to Greece in May 🇬🇷—testing fit, making adjustments, and reminding myself that yes, this slightly wonky version is all part of the process.
Meanwhile… my passport renewal has decided to become ✨an experience✨.
And because my brain cannot stay in one lane, we also wander into a bit of a deeper thought:
When God says something like “I’m going to destroy them”… is He being literal? expressive? making a point? Or is He just an exasperated parent?
I’m definitely not solving theology here—but I am thinking out loud, and I’d love to hear your perspective.
So grab your coffee ☕ and come hang out for some stitching, a little chaos, and a completely normal amount of philosophical pondering.
All the patterns I mentioned:

I'm heading to Greece this May, and of course that means one thing… planning a handmade capsule wardrobe! ✂️
In this video I walk through the pieces I'm hoping to sew for the trip, how I'm thinking about mixing and matching outfits, and the fabrics and patterns I'm considering. My goal is to create a small travel wardrobe that feels comfortable, versatile, and perfect for warm Mediterranean weather.
If you enjoy sewing, wardrobe planning, and handmade fashion for travel, I hope you'll enjoy sewing along with me as I prepare for Greece!
Let me know in the comments:
Have you ever sewn a capsule wardrobe for a trip?
Here's are the patterns I'll be using:

In this week’s sewing chat I share a dress I completely copied after spotting one I loved — and I made it from a thrifted sheet!
I also spent a few days visiting daughters and my best friend, which of course led to fabric shopping and thrifting. I’ll show you the fabrics and treasures I brought home… although I may have spent enough that my husband is going to have not just a cow, but a whole herd of cows when he hears about it. (My youngest daughter suggested he could always sell the herd to make the money back!)
I’m also wearing another dress I made and talk a little about the pattern and why it’s one of those rare designs that seems to flatter just about every body type.
And at the end, I share a thought about Moses — a man who was a murderer, a coward, and had a speech impediment, yet was chosen by God to lead an entire nation out of slavery. A reminder that God often uses the most unlikely people.
Thanks for joining me for another sewing chat!

A men's hoodie? I made it work! And vintage gems - a women's 1940's hat from the Merrimac Hat Company and an original issue of McCall's Magazine from August 1960!
Let me know if you've got a story to share about any of these things. Enjoy!

There’s something a little dramatic about flying from warm sunshine into true winter weather — especially when you’re carrying a coat you finished in the nick of time! Valentine’s Day always points us toward love, and for me that reminder goes deeper than flowers or chocolate. “For God so loved the world…” — John 3:16. The greatest love story ever told. No matter the season — warm or cold — that truth doesn’t change.
Thank you for spending some time in my sewing room. 💕
This coat is Vogue 1663 from 2019. Fabric is a polyester wool-like coating from Fabric Wholesale Direct. Check the link below for a discount.

Welcome back to our weekly sewing circle chat!
This week I’m sharing a few fun things — new scissors I’m loving, a new-to-me thrifted designer bag — and a very real January story about avoidance.
There’s a project I really want to sew… but it requires a lot of thinking and planning, and somehow that’s led me down a trail of other projects instead. One thing turns into the next, and before I know it, I’ve done everything except the thing I actually want to do.
If you’ve ever found yourself busy sewing (or doing anything creative) as a way to avoid the mental work of starting that project — especially during the January blues — you’re not alone.
Grab a cup of coffee, settle in, and let’s chat about sewing, creativity, and giving ourselves a little grace.

More sewing tips on my channel. Check out #fridaysews , a modern-day sewing circle where we chat about sewing and life.
This week’s Friday Sews is a cozy chat about a surprise fabric choice, sewing smarter with embroidery, and my New Year sewing reset. I’m sharing a new book on sewing shortcuts, working toward mastering my older embroidery machines, and how I reflect, plan, and organize my sewing life each year by setting a few intentional limits. Which of course I will probably break. Because, limits. Have you met me?
🧵 Grab a cup of coffee and let's chat!

Let's chat this week about perspective: about how an alteration never is as easy as it seems, plus the post-holiday letdown. And in the end, how Christmas lights pale when you just look up at the night sky.

Here's how I resized my cutting mat to get a perfect, edge-to-edge custom fit for my work table.
Standard cutting mat sizes rarely fit sewing workspaces perfectly. I decided to stop compromising and finally cut my large mat down to size. It’s a bit nerve-wracking to cut into an expensive mat, but the results are a total game-changer for my workflow!
The tools I used for cutting this thick material.
-a tape measure, a t-square and a sharpie marker
-my circular saw
-a table for the cutting surface
-painter's tape for a straight edge and to hold the mat down while cutting
-books to weigh and anchor the mat while cutting
-safety glasses
Tip for keeping your edges straight and smooth: GO SLOW. This will give you great results.

This dress needs your input. It's McCall's 8649 from 1997: short bodice? Long bodice? Big buttons? Small buttons?
I'm also excited to upcycle 4 things for my "mixed media" dress and vest. What do you think of the color?
