Box Top Love: The All Well Box Top

Did you know we do sewing classes? You might not, since I’ve been horrible and slacking on the blog side of things (thank goodness for amazing contributors that share great content with us though ❤️), but it’s something that I’ve found a real passion for! There’s no better sense of community then to be able […]

Pattern Review: Waterfall Raglan

I’ve been in a bit of a slow sewing journey lately. busy cutting orders and finding fabrics for the shop, plus regular life has left little time for me to actually sew (and enjoy it).

The Who and the Why…

I can not believe that it’s been almost 2 months since the shop has officially opened! I’ve had this dream of opening up a fabric store for Canadian sewists for SO long! And I’ve been trying to figure out how to put into words (or a blog post) everything I’ve been wanting to talk about. […]
