Hello and Happy November! This month we're going to be featuring (and celebrating!) the Quilted Slippers pattern with an email-style sewalong. I released this pattern in 2020 and, to my surprise, it’s been one of my most popular patterns. The slippers make great holiday gifts so November is the perfect month to start sewing them.
For this new sewalong, I’m going to be making two new pairs of slippers (one bootie style and one skimmers style), answering some frequently asked questions and trying out some new ideas. I’m hoping that it will be helpful, informative and inspirational. (Spoiler alert) I’m going to be working on maximizing warmth with extra layers of batting, attempting a leather sole and some decorative patchwork.
When you sign up this new email-style sewalong, you will receive a series of six emails sent November 11-18, 2022. (If you find this post after those dates, you can still sign up and the email series will start immediately.)
Check out the schedule below to see if it’s something you’re interested in. You can unsubscribe at any time.
