If she could only sew one thing, Helen would choose: denim! 👖❤️⁠
⁠
In this week's episode, we share a bunch of listener answers to the question, "If you could only sew one thing, what would it be?" And, of course, we share our own answers, too! Helen made an excellent choice. Denim is sturdy, but it wears in beautifully. It comes in every shade, but the indigo ones are the best. And it's so satisfying to finish it with beautiful topstitching. Here are some of Helen's denim me-mades: ⁠
⁠
👖 A pair of light wash denim #FalconerPants⁠
⁠
👖 Dark wash #YantaOveralls⁠
⁠
👖 An #AshtonTop mini-dress hack⁠
⁠
👖 A patchwork shift dress made from three pairs of Sam's old jeans!⁠

If you sew more for practical reasons rather than for enjoyment, we have tips for you!⁠
⁠
One of our best tips is to re-use patterns that you have already made adjustments to. You can change up the look by choosing a different fabric or a different sleeve view, for example. But skipping the fitting process will save you a lot of time and uncertainty! Helen recently made one of her fave patterns, the #YantaOveralls, and it was so nice to get right into sewing knowing that she would like the fit of the final product. ⁠
