The Weekly Stitch With Sew Mary Mac~ June 20, 2025

I’ve decided to try something new and write short weekly posts about what is going on in my sewing room. (OK maybe not weekly, but maybe twice per month). These will be short and simple posts that will highlight the patterns and fabrics that I used that week. Sometimes I will highlight upcoming projects too! Hopefully they will give you some inspiration!

My plan is to also to let all the fans of Love Notions Patterns know what pattern is the Feature Friday $6 pattern, because they really are such a great deal! With that being said, the $6 pattern from Love Notions today, 6/20/25 is the Juliet Top! It just so happens that I finished up two new Juliet tops over the weekend! I really do LOVE this pattern!
