$5 for September + End of August Notes


Hello Reader,

I hope you are having a wonderful weekend and soaking up the final days of August and summer! I know it won't be officially fall for a few more weeks, but I am sure ready for it to arrive.

This week's newsletter has the new $5 pattern for September (it's a good one), posts from the week, and a look at the week ahead and coming soon in September!

$5 for September

I've been looking at my Shine Remix Mini on the wall in my sewing room lately thinking how fun it would be to remake it in our Birch & Willow fabrics for fall! Something about fall stars! So, I decided it should be the $5 pattern for September. The pattern includes 3 sizes: bed size, throw, and mini!
