#ad-gifted Please welcome the @sewoveritlondon Xanthe skirt to my wardrobe 👏🎉 The SOI team very kindly gifted me a copy of the skirt for the launch back in March which was when I cut it out! Then life was lifing and I got quiet unwell so today at the @southernsewcial I decided it was time to get it sewn up! I can already see at least one more of these in my future and I love the little details in the pattern 😍 Fabric blue 8oz 100% cotton denim @franklins_colchester T-shirt borrowed off @sequingirlie because i didn’t have anything to try the skirt on with 😂 #newmake #sewingsocial #sewcialists #sewyourown #soixantheskirt #xantheskirt #sewoveritlondon #sewistsofinstagram #makersgonnamake #dressmakersofinstagram

So excited to host our first @sewists_of_dorset social next week… If anyone has any questions please do not hesitate to contact me. #sewistsofdorset #sewing #sewingsocial #projects #hobby
We're proud to celebrate the success of Alight's Sewing Social program, which was initially started to address feelings of loneliness. Designed specifically for Afghan newcomers in the United States, this program provided more than just sewing skills. Through weekly gatherings in Minneapolis, it offered Afghan women much-needed support, healing, and a sense of community during their challenging transitions to a new country. 🧵👭 We've seen significant benefits: a 44% reduction in loneliness and a 55% decrease in depression among participants. We’re grateful to all the volunteers and staff who dedicated their time each week to make this program possible. ❤️ #SewingSocial #CommunitySupport #AfghanNewcomers #AfghanRefugees #HumanitarianPrograms #Resilience #Alight

"I have attended 4 sessions of the virtual sewing room, and I can honestly say it's been amazing. I live in a rural area and have no sewing groups near me. FInding the VSR has added so much to my sewing journey, speaking to like minded people, being able to talk and ask advice about current projects has been great. Everyone at the virtual sewing room sessions have been so welcoming and friendly, and I now feel part of a lovely sewing community." - Marie @sewmariesew2023 This is exactly why I set up this community, and I live in a much more populated corner of the UK! I love Marie's enthusiam and she hasn't been sewing as long as long as some of us! In our last session she asked a great question, which led to a great conversation about being confident to make patterns to fit. If you are Barnstaple way, get in touch with Marie - she'd love some in person sewing company too! . #VirtualSewingRoom #sewingsocial #sewistsofinstagram #sewcial #sewists #sewingcommunity

Does the project you’re bringing to Pin and Tonic need seams to be ironed in between steps or edges to be overlocked? That’s why we provide an iron and overlocker threaded with white for you to use if you need! We’ll also have two ironing stations at the next Pin and Tonic to help keep the fun parts of sewing going 🎉 If you haven’t booked for the May sewing social yet, there are still some spots left!

"This is only my second session, and I have learnt so much" - @sewing_st.albans during our session earlier this week. I was quick to note down this fabulous quote after Kerri asked for some advice. The session, like so many, had lots of advice and sharing, which is what I really love hearing - I've learnt a few things myself! If you are stuck, want advice or guidance, other attendees are always willing to help out if you ask. Once we have done introductions, we then go into our chatty space where you can ask anything. So glad it has become a social and helpful space. This is not a workshop and we may not know the EXACT advice, but there is normally someone to help point in the right direction as a minimum! #virtualsewingroom #sewingsocial #sewcial #sewistsofinstagram #sewists #memade #sewingspace

Are you needing some dress inspiration now that you’ve bought your ticket or do you just want a nosy at my plans? I’ve been through my stash of patterns and fabrics and pulled out some options. I’ve not made any of these patterns before so they will all need a toile which I’m not usually a fan of but needs must in this case! From top left we have: @neridahansenfabrics Fresh flowers in green 3m @fabricgodmother Peony dress @northernmonkeymakes viscose 5m @lore.piar Vana dress @fabricgodmother Manon viscose lawn 2m @truebias Lora dress @rainbowfabrickilburn viscose crepe 3m @papercutpatterns Aalto dress @vikisews Paulina dress (centre) So I’ve got lots of choice and potentially quite a few toiles to do but luckily I need some new summer dresses so hopefully they will all be wearable toiles! Let me know your thoughts below and help me to decide what to toile first 🪡👗💃 Remember tickets are available to buy in the link in the bio and are available at the discounted rate until 31 May! #sew #sewing #anightonthetoon #newcastlefrocktails2024 #newcastlesewists #newcastlesew #sewingevent #sewingsocial #summerdresses #summersewing

The first @_threadittogether Pin and Tonic social sewing afternoon was on Saturday! An afternoon of sewing, sipping mocktails and connecting with fellow sewers ✨ Was so fun meeting everyone who came along and getting to spend the afternoon chatting about sewing, fabric and future projects! And what better time to wear my most recent me made dress! This is an altered version of the pattern I drafted for my bridesmaid dress. I removed the sleeves and the gathering from the shoulders to create this more casual look, and I am obsessed! Will definitely be making one in every colour 😍 Fabric: clearance linen from @spotlightstores Pattern: altered self drafted pattern #sewing #brisbanetodo #brisbanesewing #brisbanesocial #makenewfriends #socialevents #sewingsocial #crafternoon #sewers #brisbanesewists #brisbaneevents #memade #selfdraftedpattern #selfdrafted #gingham #ginghamdress

Meet the second of our two new hosts - Mandy @makeitsew2023 ! 🎉 Mandy has been an enthusiastic attendee since November and regularly joining in the chat or giving advice. You may recognise her from vlogging channel - go check it out! Can you guess her favourite colour? In Mandy's words; "Hi, I’m Mandy, I live in Norfolk UK in the East of England with my husband, two children and a rescue dog! I now work full time but manage to fit sewing in as much as I can, I have an Instagram account and I also dabble in a bit of vlogging 😀. Other than sewing I love discovering new places (maybe visit a fabric shop or two!) and walking. I am so chuffed to become a virtual sewing room host, I love attending these sessions and chatting to like minded people about sewing (and lots of other things!) I joined in November and haven’t looked back. I love that no matter where you are in the world, you can join in and you don’t even have to leave home 😀." . Please welcome Mandy to our hosting team! . #VirtualSewingRoom #sewingsocial #sewcial #sewing #sewcialist #sewcialistsofinstagram #dressmaking #memade #sewistsofinstagram
Meet the first of our two new hosts - Béa @missbeacurtis !🎉 Béa has been a regular to our sessions since day one, and can often be found joining a #SurreySews in-person events. We love hearing about how she manages her small sewing stash, taking part in challenges (most recently March mending) and sewing weekends she goes to! In Béa words; "Hi, I’m Béa (Béatrice @MissBeaCurtis), from Guildford in Surrey. I’ve been sewing for as long as I can remember, one way or another. I love the magic of transforming a bit of fabric to something that you can actually wear! Most of my wardrobe is me-made, and I’m an advocate for amending and hacking patterns, to make the most of them, and to engage your creativity and ingenuity. Apart from Sewing, I teach Bellydance, and of course I made my own costumes when I was performing. I had to stop when I realised I had more costumes than opportunities to wear them! I'm half French, hence the accent. I was absolutely thrilled when Jenny asked me to be a Virtual Sewing Room host, because it’s such a wonderful, friendly, supportive community, and I’m very happy that its flourishing and that I can be a part of that." Welcome to the hosting team Béa! ❤️ . #VirtualSewingRoom #SewingSocial #sewcial #sewists #sewistsofinstagram #sewcialist #sewcialists #sewing
We have two new hosts! In case you missed the news announced during our birthday party quiz, we have TWO new hosts joining Jenny, Dee and Lucy.

Bea has been a regular since we started and our March Mending champion, whilst Mandy has been a regular friendly attendee in more recent months. They have their induction soon, and we will get them on the rota for hosting duties shortly. Please give them a big WELCOME!

There will be a separate giveaway of a pack of 5 Virtual Sewing Room labels for one lucky attendee! - The session will otherwise run as normal with usual introductions and sewing chatter. . This party has NO dress code, but pajama's are always enocuraged 😉 . We look forward to seeing you there. . #VirtualSewingRoom #SewingSocial #sewcial #sewistsofinstagram #sewist #sewcialist
A busy Sunday session. We were talking sewing getaways, 1m blouse patterns, and some sharing of recent purchases. If you want to know some of what we chat about, check out the "Previous session" highlights on my profile👆 Started a bit of spotlighting recently to swoon over fabric and makes 😍 . #VirtualSewingRoom #sewingsocial #socialsewing #sewcial #sewciallyconnected
FAQ - Do I need to attend the whole session? No! The sessions are generally 2 hours and you can come and go as you need to. People often apologise for being late, but there is no need. No register is taken, and l totally understand life often calls, whether that's children, work, pets, or other life stuff. You are welcome to pop in for 10 minutes to get a feel of sessions. The space is here for you if you want to socialise with other like-minded people. We are a relaxed space. If you arrive late, give us a wave, and we'll try to say hello when the conversation allows. We keep an eye on the chat, so you are encouraged to use that to say hello or goodbye to let others know if it feels awkward to interrupt a conversation. . #VirtualSewingRoom #sewingsocial #sewcial #sewciallyconnected
Such a great day at our first #sipandsewdublin Thank you to Ann Marie @craftystudio.ie for allowing us to use the beautiful work space in her shop! A lot of sewing, chatting, drinking coffee and stroking fabric was involved! 💕 Also some Burrito action! 😂 Sounds like the perfect way to spend a Saturday! 😍😂 Already plans for the next one! #sewingsocial #sewdublin #sewireland #irelandsews #sewingpeoplearethebest @dublinsewingmeetup @alfredosews @lorri_sews @sew_labelle @valerielikestosew @thread.spaghetti @missymoiselle @linepierce @princessfifisews @meabhmade
I'm very excited to be at the @farnhammaltings Thread...a festival of textiles in June! Big thanks to attendee @melaniekeane for making it happen to help VSR spread the word about our community and benefits. 🥰 I have had Threads festival on my radar for years and never managed to attend, so it's wonderful to be there on a stall! Mel has kindly offered to be there too, and I expect to see some other familiar faces in the room during the day. Details: Saturday 8th June 2024 9.30-5pm, Farnham Maltings [Surrey] GU9 7QR. . Come say hello IN PERSON if you've never been and ask anything you might want to know. We may even have a live VSR happening during the day (tbc) so you can see it in action! . Anyone planning to go, please say hello. I'll be handsewing on my stall between talking to people I suspect! . . #VirtualSewingRoom #sewist #sewistsofinstagram #sewing #farnhammaltings #threadsfestival #Threads #festivaloftextiles #sewingsocial #surreysews #hampshiresews

🗺Where in the virtual world?🗺 During the sign up on Eventbrite, I ask where attendees are joining from. This helps me understand where the need is and if I need to be considerate towards other time zones and which ones. Makes me very proud that we have such a wide spread not only across the UK but Europe and North America. We have regular attendees from Germany, Greece, and America alongside many UK based attendees❤️ Big thanks to @dyedinthewool1 who volunteered to put this together for me and with such enthusiasm.
