Happy National Sewing Month!

Sewing has shaped every chapter of my life.
What started as a skill I learned from my mom grew into a way to create clothes that fit, a career in the apparel industry, and ultimately a profession I love: teaching sewing to makers around the world.

For me, sewing is about so much more than fabric and thread. It's creativity, confidence, problem-solving, and the joy of making something uniquely your own.
This month, I hope you'll celebrate by learning a new technique, finishing a project you've been meaning to complete, or simply spending time at your sewing machine.
How has sewing impacted your life? I'd love to hear your story!

Last day of Sewing Expo in Puyallup! Ulli, our Washington Make It With Wool Junior Winner stopped by Billie's Designer Fabrics booth to say "hi" and spend her coupon given to her for being in the "Kids Can Sew" Fashion show yesterday!

Martha Phelps, Washington MIWW Adult winner stopped by as well, along with Marcia Mankin, the 2025 National Make It With Wool winner!

We hope you are enjoying Sewing Expo, and we look forward to seeing what you create with wool in our next contest on Saturday, October 24th (date pending) at Bates Technical College in Tacoma.
