✍️ Had a lot of fun putting together my Year in Review post for 2024! Sooo much has happened this year—of varying vibes—and it was nice to highlight many of the experiences that gave me joy.

@melanie I've just got back into sewing. Over 30 years ago I was a reasonable dressmaker, I earned money making dance costumes as a teenager, but I'm super rusty. I'm really enjoying making bags to get myself back up to speed.

@rachelandrew dance costumes sound really challenging! So many tricky materials. What kinds of bags are you making these days?

@melanie I've made a couple of patterns from here https://sotakco.nl/ (she has some really nice ones, and the instructions are excellent). I did this organizer bag to practice with zips on my new machine.

@rachelandrew your project turned out so nicely! 🤩 Thanks for the link too, I might need to sew up a project bag for my knitting…
