Are you dealing with a messy sewing room or unsure what some of your older fabric is? We’ve been using the Kylie and the Machine Fabric ID Tape in the studio and have found it super helpful for organizing fabric!

It’s available for purchase in the studio for anyone looking to sort their stash during spring cleaning. This tape is a great way to identify your fabric after you get it home, and it goes into your stash before getting sewn up right away. You'll never have to wonder:
“Have I already pre-washed this?” or “What fiber is this fabric?” ever again...

This tape has sections to mark the following information:
✏️ Fiber Content
✏️ Width & Length of Fabric
✏️ Where it was sourced from
✏️ Pre-washed? Y/N
✏️ Plus a section for Notes

✨ Frocktails Fun! ✨ Such a fabulous night celebrating creativity and style! We just received some fabulous photos we'd love to share.

Familiar faces:
Rene E. wowed in a stunning dress made from Simplicity 9105 - she even worked on the fitting and part of the construction right here in the studio! Ali L. (our amazing admin) rocked a beautiful top made from the SpiltMilk Classic T-shirt pattern, using a gorgeous vintage tablecloth. And Renee's dress? She wore the La Vie Dressing Gown by Sew Chic Patterns, made with a dreamy cotton voile border print from Mood.

Frocktails is a wonderful sewing event, showcasing incredible hard work and dedication. We loved attending this year (and being a sponsor!) and connecting with so many talented sewists.

Interested in attending next year and would like some sewing help? Sewing & Fitting Mentor can provide you with everything you need to create a successful sewn outfit.

Many people begin sewing because they want to reduce waste - mending instead of tossing, upcycling instead of buying new, and turning scraps into something useful. For sewists, every repaired seam and reimagined garment is a small but powerful act of care for the planet.

Learning how to transform well‑loved items into something new through sewing is a meaningful skill that supports sustainability and honors the spirit of Earth Day.

Let's keep up to great work 💚 Happy Earth Day!
