Sew DIY July 2020 sewing vlog

Hello sew-friends! It’s vlog time again. Today, I’m sharing my July 2020 vlog. I tell you about the things I’ve been sewing this month, do a quick recap of all the things posted to the blog and YouTube, and give you a little behind-the-scenes info. Watch the video below or head over to YouTube to subscribe and watch. More details are below the video.

June blog posts

My Slabtown backpack (kit gifted by Klum House) finally hit the blog this month.

Continuing the Tasi Robe and Jacket sewalong, I created a video for how to use the Draft-It-Yourself the Tasi pattern. Note, this video is exclusive for those who have purchased the pattern.

For the Quilted Slippers sewalong, I posted a video about how to make your own quilted fabric. These techniques will work for other projects as well.

Another older make that finally got its blog debut is the Morningside Blouse. Read all about it here.

I answered one of my most asked questions and did a video with tips for deciding how much fabric to buy even when you don’t know what you want to make.

I made a video with 10 ideas for pattern hacking and tips for a successful pattern hack

Not mentioned in the video but definitely in July, is my blog post with tips for sewing with terry cloth fabric.

Things I sewed in July

My vintage animal print terry cloth Tasi Robe is a winner in my book. Read more about it here.

I’m really loving the Seamwork Kaye top and plan on making at least a couple more of them. And hopefully there will be a blog post at some point too.

I actually sewed the bean bag chair in June but forgot to sew it then. It is entirely made of scrap fabric! Here’s an inspiration image on Pinterest. I know he looks slightly alarmed in the photo above but trust me, he likes it.
