Welcome to the Sewing and the City blog!
Hi there! Christine here 🙂 Hope you’re doing great.
Welcome to the Sewing and the City blog!
Sewing and the City has been a dream of mine since 2015, when I was living in NYC, working in fashion…and in the midst of a corporate burnout…was yearning to follow my heart.
Sewing is as much a part of me as breathing. At 6 years old, I begged my mom to let me sew and well, the rest is history!
One thing I love about sewing, is that no matter if you set it down for a chapter in life and don’t sew for months (even years), sewing is waiting there for you like an old best friend! Isn’t that so cool? It’s truly a life long skill.
If you’re here for the first time, here are a few things to check out:
✂️ Join my FREE Facebook group, Sewing (Slow) Fashion!
✂️ Follow along on Instagram and Pinterest
✂️ Then, check out my Fashion Sewing Get Started Style Guide (It’s FREE)
✂️ Ready to learn to sew? Then I’d recommend starting with Stitch Playbook
✂️ Already sewing and want some fresh pattern styles? Check out our growing selection of PDF printable patterns in the shop
✂️ Grab my popular storage tote pattern and eye mask pattern (both are FREE and fun projects)
Thanks for stopping by – I’m glad you’re here! Be sure to tag me @sewingandthecity – I’d love to share your makes.
With love from the island,
