Happy Tuesday Sewers. I'm a day behind with this week, what's on your sewing machine, needle, table... It was a bank holiday Monday here in the UK, so I made the most of the rain, and got stuck in my garden (poly tunnel up and 5 fruit bushes later). So, we are celebrating a new week, a fresh stretch of time at the table… and I’d love to know what you’re stepping into. Before the pins go in and the machines start humming, let’s set it out clearly. ⟶ What are you starting or finishing this week? ⟶ What’s already in progress that you’re working on? ⟶ And what would you love to complete by the weekend? Be as specific as you like, the real projects, the fiddly bits, the pieces that have been quietly waiting for your attention. This is our space to stay accountable, support each other, and keep things moving (even if it’s just one seam at a time). I’ll be back over the weekend to check in and see how it all unfolded — progress, pivots, and everything in between. 🖤 Claire Amelia Now tell me… what’s on your table this week? ⬇️

Well… here we are at the end of the week. Needles threaded, unthreaded, re-threaded… plans followed, plans abandoned, and (hopefully) a few beautiful things brought to life along the way. On Monday, @Valerie The French Sewing Bee , @Jan Appleton , @Debra Verrall , @Jane Harbison , @Nancy Poekert , @Christy Steiger you all told me what was on your table (or not sewing on your table), now let's hear how it actually went. Not the perfect version. The real version. ⟶ What did you manage to start? ⟶ What actually moved forward (even a little)? ⟶ What’s still sitting there… waiting for you? ⟶ What surprised you this week? (a win, a problem, a “why did I do it like that?” moment 😄) This isn’t about ticking everything off. It’s about staying connected to your work, and to each other. I’ll be going through and celebrating with you properly, so don’t be shy with the details. Photos, progress, chaos… all of it is welcome here, we're here to learn & evolve. 🖤 Claire Amelia Now tell me, how did your week at the table really go? ⬇️

Good morning, makers! 🪡 The atelier is open, the kettle's on (the Yorkshire tea isn't soaking in today), the week is full of possibilities, and I am SO ready to see what this community gets up to over the next seven days. Before you thread your machine, pick up your needle or unroll a single centimetre of fabric, I want to know what's on your table this week. We're doing something a little different from today. This week, we're holding each other accountable. So tell me where you are at: ⟶ What sewing project are you STARTING this week? ⟶ What are you in the middle of and WORKING ON? ⟶ What do you want to COMPLETE before Friday? Drop your answer below, as specific as you like. Not just "a dress" but "the silk organza sleeves that have been staring at me for two weeks" 😄. The more honest and real, the better. We're a community of serious makers, we can handle the truth of the to-do list! I'll be back on Friday to check in and celebrate how far we all got, progress, detours and happy accidents included. —————————————————————————————————— Also… 👀 I have something exciting coming in May. A theme that I think is going to absolutely light this community up, and I genuinely cannot wait to share it with you. Stay close, stay engaged, and keep your eyes on the notice board. The first hint is coming very soon. Happy sewing, Claire Amelia 🪡 Now, tell me what's on your table! ⬇️
