Having a fun time sewing this week! New students making their intro pillows! #pghsews #pghsewists #kidscansew #summercamp #pghsummercamp

My dad, who does a million and a half things for me made and hung up this “sew” sign when I moved into my morningside location. Now six years later he is giving the signage an update. Painting additional letters and rehanging to complete. Love it!

Loving this pattern so much! This is the @truebias #novajumpsuit and this is the second one I have made. Unfortunately my phone doesn’t want to corporate and open the other picture to show you my first one in a black and white dead stock stripe from Firecracker but this is my more recent one which I am pretty proud of my pattern matching! There is a center front seam and back seam so beware if you are choosing a fabric to pattern match. This one was a good challenge since it’s not your regular stripe. It’s super comfy, I could wear one every day! I did raise the neckline, and my first one which was a much slinkier knit needed to be brought up a bit in the shoulders after an unnecessary torso adjustment to the length. And pockets of course are perfect! This pattern and fabric are both available @firecrackerfabrics - get it, you will need to make ten! Available in sizes 0-18 or 14-30! #pghsews #pghsewists #memade #imakemyownclothes

Four intro to sewing classes over the past week and a half! It’s been incredible to get so many new sewists started on their journey. The July class is already full but don’t worry I will get another on the schedule for the summer! #pghsewists #pghsews #pghsewingclasses #learntosew

Here are a few more projects from the end of the spring program in kids sewing! These kids did such a fantastic job! If your child would like to sew this summer we have a few intro spots left for July and a few other spots in intermediate camps spread throughout the summer.

So many new sewists entering the sewing scene this past week! It was a true pleasure teaching you all tonight and I look forward to seeing you in more classes to come! #pghsewists #pghsews #pghsewingclasses

Another amazing group of sewists tonight! It was a super fun class and such a joy to teach you all to sew tonight. If you’re looking for an intro class coming up grab a spot online and then choose a pillow kit from @firecrackerfabrics for your project. Pillow kits are hand selected just for this class to make it super easy for the new sewist #pghsews #pghsewists #pghsewingclasses #learntosew

Take a look at this absolutely amazing dress made by @britthobbit during the daytime Basics of Working with a Pattern class. Britt took a lot of care making this dress by first making 2 muslin mock-ups with pattern adjustments and then carefully laying it out to match her plaid. Plus all self made bias tape finished edges. Amazing job! #pghsews #pghsewists #pghsewingclasses

The previously full #irisknickers from @tillybuttons class coming up June 7th with @clothofrigg has 2 open spots! Sized us 2-20, this pattern has lots of options and is a great scrap busting project. Don’t miss out in this fun class! #pghsewists #pghsews #pghsewingclasses #underwearmaking images by @tillybuttons

Natalie @the_curious_fawn looking amazing in her new #erindungarees from @tillybuttons - how cute is it with the strawberry fabric for lining! Such a comfy and relaxed overall - I am loving it!

Just a sampling of some of the amazing items finished up or just nearly complete in the last night of the pattern basics class. Super proud of this group and all they accomplished! The next session of this class is full and will pop back up again in august after a brief summer break. But if you are looking for help on a project this summer be sure to check out the assisted open workshop classes which are one night only sessions which make for low commitment over the summer. #pghsewists #pghsews #pghsewingclasses

Thank you to everyone who made it out this morning to help sew dignity gowns to donate to UPMC McKeesport. As always, it was a wonderful morning spent with all of you. Thank you for donating your time and talent! The last volunteer sewing session is on the schedule for May 17th in the morning. After that we take a short break over the summer while summer camps are in session and will resume in September #pghsewists #pghsews #pghsewingclasses #volunteer #volunteersewing

New sewists, yay! Such a fantastic group tonight. Thank you all for coming and I look forward to seeing you in more classes and what you make next! #pghsews #pghsewists #pghsewingclasses

Altering, mending, repairing, remaking - all such a wonderful part of sewing. It is a way to give new life into old or worn clothing. To fix what’s broken so you can continue to wear the things you love and they don’t end up in a landfill. Or to find something wonderful in a thrift shop and modernize it or modify it to make it your own. Join @clothofrigg in an Alter, Repair and Remake workshop May 24th and learn how to hem, mend, fix, alter, remake - take that pile of items that needs fixing and make them wearable. Pick up an item from a thrift shop and sew some new life into it. This class tends to always fill so grab a spot while you can! Beginner sewing experience required. #pghsewingclasses #pghsewists #pghsews

One of my working with a pattern basics students made the #wiksten in this lovely tiger printed fabric from @firecrackerfabrics - it’s so much fun, and cozy! #pghsewists #pghsews #pghsewingclasses

Plus, it’s the perfect way to use some of your favorite scraps! Sign up at cutandsewstudio.com #dressno1 and #dressno2 pattern available @firecrackerfabrics #pghsews #pghsewists #pghsewingclasses

Oh my gosh, so impressed by this young sewist who came in with a drawing she had made of a skeleton doll and said she would like to make one from fabric. She had it all planned out, drew out a pattern, drew the bones design on the fabric herself, made the doll and a little dress all in one class. She is quite the artist and sewist! #kidssewingclasses #kidscansew #pghsewists #pghsews #pghsewingclasses

First sewing projects are the best! Squeezable pillows ❤️ head to cutandsewstudio.com to check out the summer camp offerings. There’s still time to sign up for some camps. #pghsewists #pghsewingclasses #kidssewingclasses #kidscansew

Assisted Quilts and Needlework Open Workshop coming up May 2nd with @southatlanticstitch - just 3 spots remain! For students who are familiar with at least the basics of quilting, embroidery, hand-piecing, or English Paper Piecing, but have a project they need a little guidance on. Perhaps you need a reminder on how to sew binding to a quilt, need help getting the perfect French Knot, want to achieve better points on your quilt blocks or need help understanding a quilt pattern – or just want to work on your quilt / needlework project with a teacher on hand!

(Beginners to these crafts should wait for the related full courses to learn the basics, this class is for guidance on existing projects / skills.) #pghsewists #pghsews #pghsewingclasses #pghquilters #pghquiltingclasses

It’s been quite a long time since I have had a group picture from my Intro to Sewing class! What a fantastic group of new sewists! Thank you all for coming tonight, it was a pleasure teaching you and I can’t wait to see what you make next! #pghsewists #pghsews #pghsewingclasses #learntosew

A wearable muslin is a great way to test out a pattern but still have something amazing to wear in the end. This student from my Basics of Working with a pattern class did a test run of her skirt using a fabric she liked, but not as nice as her final fabric, it turned out fantastic. We made some tweaks to the fit and discussed some construction changes so now she can make her second one in her more pricey fabric and be at ease knowing generally how it will turn out. It’s a great way to practice the construction and I highly recommend! #pghsewists #pghsews #pghsewingclasses #patternbasicsclass

Take a look at this amazing group of students who completed the #ilfordjacket by @fridaypatterncompany class last night with @clothofrigg - these jackets are incredible! 👏 👏 ❤️ way to go! #pghsewingclasses #pghsewists #pghsews

I love a nice before and after! Scroll through to see the after. My husband got this fleece jacket as a gift from his old job and didn’t have any plans to wear it, but it would be a shame to toss it so with a little effort I was able to make it into a nice spring fleece for myself. #remake #remakeclothing #pghsewists #pghsews

Coming up in April, make a unique, color-blocked 100 Acts of Sewing Dress with @clothofrigg . This simple dress is the perfect canvas to experiment with color and shape. Learn how to add seam allowance and alter a pattern to make it uniquely yours! We will sketch out our ideas, transfer them to the pattern pieces, and bring them to life on the sewing machine. This is my color blocked dress that I made earlier in covid and it’s such a fun way to use up scraps and incorporate new fabrics and create something totally unique.

Traveler’s duffel bag made by this very young sewist. I absolutely love all the fabrics and webbing she chose, so much 🌈!! This project is on our summer camp lineup and is currently a sold out camp- hoping we can add a few more spots in the camp- so if you’d like to be on a wait list let me know! #pghsewists #kidscansew #kidssewingclasses #pghsews

Because sometimes, when making a giant stuffy sloth, you have to wear it as the parts are made! This young sewist has her sloth head completed, and sloth arms, next week we should have the whole body together for reveal! Not to mention she is wearing her recently made Hoodie in a beautiful French terry from @firecrackerfabrics - I just love it when my students come in wearing the clothes they made!
