Editor’s Note February 2025

Caitlin Eaton

As February unfolds, we find ourselves caught between the chill of winter and the promise of spring. While freezing temperatures persist here in the Midwest, our sewing plans are already leaning toward sunnier days ahead. That’s why this issue of We Like Sewing is packed with the best of both worlds—cozy winter staples and fresh, early spring projects!

Stay stylish through the last of the cold snaps with Traci Anderson’s oversized turtleneck, a sporty yet sophisticated piece designed to keep you warm. If you’re planning a romantic Valentine’s Day, Lauren Merciris’ vintage-inspired handbag pattern is the perfect accessory to complete your look. Then, it’s time to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day with intricate Celtic knot quilting from Staci Wendland, festive kitchen décor from Debi Schmitz, and playful coasters from Christy Jones.

And because the little details make all the difference, don’t miss Claudia Nicholson’s tutorial on sewing covered buttons, plus a shabby chic wreath project that will welcome spring in style. Whether you’re stitching for the season you’re in or the one you’re dreaming of, this issue has something for every sewist.

Happy sewing!
