*** Sign up for free sewing tutorials at https://foundationsrevealed.com/free-level/ *** It's only a couple of weeks until we hit a new year, and so it's time to focus on the future. I've picked out a new sewing project to tackle, and in this month's video I'll take you on the journey I went on to make that decision. We'll go on a mini tour of some of my favourite sewing and costume books, ooh and ahh over some gorgeous sewing project ideas, and finally pick something that's not too easy, not too hard, and pretty darn exciting.
