Tip Tuesday:
Let’s talk scraps — the little pieces we swear we’ll use “one day”… and then immediately forget about. Today, we’re giving you 3 reasons to save your scraps (and actually enjoy using them):
-
They stretch your fabric budget and give you more creative mileage.
-
They spark low-pressure, high-fun creativity with unexpected colour + texture play.
-
They let you carry pieces of past makes into new projects — a tiny, joy-filled way to stitch memories forward.
If you’re ready to turn that overflowing scrap bin into something inspiring, join us on January 30th for Edith’s Scrap Management Skill Builder! She’ll show you how to sort, store, and confidently use your scraps so they become a resource — not a burden. You’ll learn simple, practical systems to keep your sewing room tidy and make the most of every last piece.
And if you want to put those scraps to immediate use, don’t miss Edith’s Mile A Minute Quilt Class on June 13th — a fun, freeing sewing day with no math, no tricky patterns, and no pressure. This quilt is perfect for scraps, leftover blocks, and those “problem pieces” we all have stashed away. Edith saves anything bigger than one inch, tosses it into a drawer, and when that drawer won’t close… It’s Mile A Minute time!
Mile a Minute quilts are bright, pretty, and wonderfully wonky — your sashing and border fabrics will determine the overall colour and feel.
There are only three spots left in the Mile a Minute class — snag yours before they’re gone!
Come sew, sort, and scrap-bust your way into the new year with us!

Maker Spotlight
We’re kicking off the week with Kim’s gorgeous sample for our upcoming Zip It Up class — happening February 2 & 7!
This ByAnnie pattern is the perfect mix of practical + pretty, and Kim’s version shows just how fun it can be to play with colour and texture. If you’ve been wanting to level up your bag-making skills (zippers included!), this class is such a great place to start.
Our full new class list is now live, and spots are already filling — take a peek and find your next make!
