That's Sew Hillary

That's Sew Hillary Sewing lessons, sewing workshops, and maker events. Let's make something awesome, Frederick. The world can never have too many makers. Want to be a maker? Cool.

Makers are using their energy and resources to create a nicer world around them. Makers have appreciation for quality and the real work that goes into "stuff". Makers discover their individuality and are proud to display it. Makers aren't scared to explore their curiosity and problem solve their way through creation, gifting the world with something completely unique to themselves. I can help.

It's TIME to clean out those craft rooms!

Join us on Saturday, October 10th from 9 a.m. - Noon at Give Rise Studio (125 South Carroll, Suite 101, Frederick MD) for our next craft swap! We’d love to take extra craft supplies and fabric off your hands! Everything that isn’t taken at the swap will be donated to various community groups - so you can feel good about parting ways with it! (Do you know of a group who could use craft supplies? Let me know and I’ll reach out!)

How does this work, you ask? Well...

✂️ Drop off your extra fabric, sewing supplies, and crafting supplies before the event during one of the drop off times. We are only accepting drop offs before the event, not on the day of.

✂️ On the day of the event, show up ready to take LOTS of great stuff! Everything is 100% free! Get there early for the best selection! (be aware that you may have to wait in line to get in so that we can maintain a safe capacity)

✂️ You don’t have to donate in order to come take! We always have more than enough stuff!

Sooo…. Start cleaning out those craft rooms!

Meet Bella! ✨✂️

Bella is a self-taught sewist from downtown Frederick who loves all things fashion. Fun fact: she taught herself to sew by copying clothes from her own closet (!!)
..and now she’s going to teach you how to do it too! Bella will be teaching her new Clone Your Clothes workshop, where you’ll learn how to create a pattern from your favorite pair of PJ pants, then use it to sew a brand-new pair! Sign up at SewHillary.com/workshops!

Help us welcome Bella, we’re so excited to have her teaching at the studio!! 💕

Need some time, space, or a little help with your sewing?

We’ve got two ways to help you get those projects moving again!

OPEN STUDIO ✂️
Bring whatever you’re working on and enjoy dedicated time to sew, plenty of space to spread out, and access to our studio equipment and tools. Bring your own machine or use one of ours!

Open Studio is perfect if you’re comfortable working independently but could use the space, equipment, community, or motivation to actually get some sewing done.

PRIVATE LESSONS 🪡
Need more hands-on help? Book a one-on-one lesson focused entirely on you and what you want to learn. Bring a project you’re stuck on, learn a new skill, get comfortable with your machine, or get guidance from start to finish.

✨ Not sure which one you need?
Open Studio = space + equipment + independent sewing
Private Lesson = dedicated one-on-one help

Find upcoming Open Studio dates + book a private lesson at sewhillary.com 💛

Thank you to everyone who came out Friday and helped us turn Frederick Health’s blue wrap into 57 walker bags!

This project felt extra special! We were able to keep a significant amount of blue wrap out of the landfill and give it a whole new purpose, making walker bags for patients at the very same hospital it came from. Full circle sewing at its finest. 🩷 And we had a ton of fun doing it!

We love you, Frederick Health

There’s really nothing better than spending time making things with your local sewing community, and Frederick has such a good one. Sewing folks are the best folks. 🫶✨

Join us to help our Frederick community through sewing!

Let's sew Walker Bags out of Blue Wrap for Frederick Health Hospital!
Friday, August 14 | 6-8 p.m.


EVENT INFO:
We are going to sew the walker bags assembly line style, so everyone will be sewing a different step. We will provide all the material for the bags, but please bring your sewing machine, pins, scissors, and BLUE or WHITE thread if you have it!

If you cannot sew or do not have a sewing machine, that’s ok! We will have a handful of assembly line steps that will not involve sewing.

This project is a pretty neat one, check out the second image for more info ❤️

Happy Monday! Today is feeling particularly Monday-ish, so I thought I’d send you a little internet hug 🥰

As someone who has had a long career as a graphic designer, a career as a sewing instructor, and years as a sewing hobbiest, I feel pretty well versed in creativity and how it plays a part in our sense of self and how that can turn to imposter syndrome. So, I’m here to give you permission to just “be”. You are enough, you are creative, and you are awesome 🫶
