I’m using the Janome 725s sewist Sewing Machine but it is similar for most toploading bobbin machines. Winding the Bobbin. Inserting the bobbin. Threading the upper thread and demonstrating threading the needle using the automatic needle threader.

Bekki came to me after many years of not sewing. She wanted to make clothes for herself and her family.

Can you believe that this was her very first make, given as a birthday gift to her daughter Lucy! A beautiful @merchantandmills Omilie Top in this super cute @fabricgodmother Strawberry linen/viscose. Bekki added her own flare with the ricrac trim and the big green buttons.

Isn't it just gorgeous?

Is this the most boring but useful sewing?
I’m repairing Gary’s dressing gown with an old flannel keeping it in service for more years (hopefully) and out of landfill.
Can you think of anything more boring but useful? I’d love to hear about it in the comments!

A brand new month means a brand new sew along over

In stitches of time, the new year unfolds, A tapes

In stitches of time, the new year unfolds,
A tapestry woven, stories told.
Love and stitches bind us tight,
As dreams take flight in the soft moonlight.

May each thread of joy and laughter,
Weave a tale happily ever after.
In the studio, where creativity gleams,
Here's to a year of fulfilling dreams.*
