Editor’s Note November 2025

Caitlin Eaton

Somehow it’s happened: we’ve officially entered the pre-holiday season! And if your location is anything like mine, you’re also experiencing an increase in rainy days and cooler temperatures. But don’t despair! This new issue of We Like Sewing has plenty of cozy projects to keep your interest, especially when it’s too rainy to be outside. Start by sewing a simple and practical hot water bottle cover by designer Sophie Tarrant. This one is great to make extras of (they’re ideal holiday gifts for everyone on your list). Next up, let’s gift your wardrobe a fall staple: Daniela Paz Gutierrez-Diaz’s palazzo-style yoga pants are perfect for dressing up and down. You’ll be grabbing these every week!

Feeling the holiday spirt? Get your home ready for Thanksgiving guests with Debbie von Grabler-Crozier’s patchwork door bow. It adds just the right amount of fall cheer to your doorway; plus, it’s ideal for leftover fabrics. Looking for something for the little one in your life? This month’s cover project brings just the thing: Jo Carter’s sweet fall fox pattern is just too adorable. We dare you not to fall in love!

Also in this issue, you’ll learn how to sew toggle closures as well as discover our Editor’s Picks, featuring must-have projects for this season.

Happy Sewing,
