I'm Sari and I'm Haley and this is Seamwork Radio.

Welcome back to Seamwork Radio where we share practical ideas for building a creative process

so you can sew with intention and joy. Today we're talking about quick, satisfying sewing projects that you can

complete in a single day. We'll cover why these projects are so important for your sewing

journey, how to identify patterns that truly can be finished quickly, and five specific projects

you can start today, even if you only have a few hours to spare. All right.

So, Haley, what's the fastest you've ever completed a sewing project from start to finish?

I love a fast sewing project.

So there's a handful that come to mind.

But one that I wore recently that I kind of forgot I had was I made a pair of knit Joss pants.

And those were really, really fast because Joss is already, Joss is a pull-on, wide leg,

slightly cropped elastic waist pant that we have in our seamwork catalog, which is already

so fast and easy. But I omitted the patch pockets and just sewed them in kind of a wide ribnet.

And it probably took me more time to cut them than it did to sew them.

Maybe an hour and a half total.

They are really fast to sew.

They're really fast.

Yeah, I've made them a few times and they're really fast. And this brings us to our free pattern right now is Joss, actually. So you can actually get Joss for free. We rotate our free patterns every season. And that's the free pattern for right now. So if you want it, we'll put a link to it in the show notes so you can get it, or you can just go to our website and find it in our catalog. Just look

for Joss there, and you'll be able to download it for free. So I hope you guys enjoy that one.

It's a really awesome pattern. It's one of my most sewn patterns. Yeah, and I wear it all. I wore it yesterday, actually. I have a pair that I made in like a rayon crepe with, it's black with little white clover's all over it. So cute. Cute. And I actually put on a different pair of pants yesterday. And I just got back from vacation. And the pants did not feel like they fit as well as they did before.

And I was like, oh, these are too tight. So I took them off and put on my comfy Jaws pants and felt a lot better.

And if you have a question for us that we can use as an icebreaker in a future episode, we would love to hear it.
