In Part 2, I’m going to show you how to make a darling little circle puff pincushion. In the process of creating this keepsake, we’ll brush up on a few hand sewing skills - the whipstitch and the satin stitch or buttonhole stitch. Once you make one, I’m sure you’ll be hooked and make many in different color combinations.
Hi Everyone! Welcome to the topic Sewing Pretty Little Pincushions! This will be a great opportunity to practice many of the skills and techniques we've demonstrated in prior SWC topics. We can put them into practice as we work together to create beautiful keepsake pincushions! What I love about pincushions is that they are not just practical, but frequently a special keepsake, something passed down from a grandmother or sewing mentor.
Hi Everyone! In Part 4, we wrap up the rainwear fabrics' topic with the final steps in the Pepper Hill sew-along. Over the course of this topic we've spent some time looking at the qualities and characteristics of different rainwear fabrics, how to sew with them, and how to best choose them for your project. In Part 3 we began the sew-along and demonstrated sewing the hood. In this final installment we will finish up sewing the coat together!
Hi Everyone! Now that we've prepped and prepared, we're ready to begin sewing the Pepper Hill Raincoat together! In Part 3, we will sew the Hood and the Hood Lining.

Although the end result is great, the thought of sewing with these types of fabrics may seem a little bit intimidating, am I right? Well, we’ve got you covered!
Hi Everyone! In Part 4, we wrap up the zero-waste topic with a look at creatively using our scraps. I know I generate a lot of scraps with each and every project and am left with the decision, "keep it, or toss it?" each time. I'm excited to share one scrap-busting idea with you using scraps from up-cycled denim. I hope this inspires you to creatively use your scraps too!
