Dear Sewing Superstar,
As the days run shorter, the air gets crisper, and the leaves are ready to turn, you know it’s time to sew some fine fall projects. We have fabulous and fun décor, some stylish wearables, a scrapbusting tutorial and more. Here’s a peek inside the September Issue of We Like Sewing!
Just a Little Hocus Pocus
Gothic romance rules with our Quinn Lace Denim Jacket Refashion. A thrifted black denim jacket gets new life with a thrifted black lace insert. We’ll walk you through the steps; you can strut your stuff with this beginner-friendly refashion project.
How about some Halloween decorations that are so cute, they’re scary? Make our Spooky Halloween Bunting to decorate your mantel, stairs, or treat table with our spooktacular Halloween motifs.
Pick of the Patch
Celebrate the season of the Great Pumpkin with a stellar throw quilt—our Midnight in the Pumpkin Patch Quilt. The pumpkin takes center stage under the light of a full moon and sparkling stars. This pattern is fat quarter-friendly and ready for you to harvest the compliments when you show off this quilt!
We just love bringing the beauty of the outdoors indoors, and we’ve found a new way to do it. Our Pretty and Plaid Pumpkin Planter Cozy is a great way to dress up your fall flower planters. Why settle for a plain old planter when you can nest your fall flowers in a colorful cozy?
From Summer to Fall
That transition time between seasons is a great opportunity to make a multi-season-friendly bag. Our Daisy Zippered Crossbody Bag will tote your necessities in comfort and style even as the leaves start turning. Its stylish, compact design makes it the perfect accessory for school or travel!
One of the joys of walking along the beach is finding pieces of sea glass—beautifully polished by Mother Nature. Celebrate those sweet surf treasures by making our Sandstone Sea Glass Quilted Pillow Cover in elegant fall neutrals. Use your favorite fabric scraps and repurpose those old jeans for a unique pillow cover with a seaside theme.
Tutorial & Trend Report
If your fabric stash is anything like mine, it’s packed with beautiful fabric scraps you just couldn’t bear to throw away. There must be something to do with them, right? Absolutely.
