I like that you mentioned shopping your wardrobe first. In VA we have 4 distinct seasons and with a small closet, I only keep the current season out so it's easy to forget what I already have when I make plans for the next season. Now that I have been sewing more, I am trying to be more aware and look at what I already have, as well as plans I had and fabrics that didn't get sewn this time last year.
That’s exactly it. I try and shop my closet first- especially because I forget what I have after having my clothes put away from the previous season. You could always plan your colors around what you have in your fabric stash. Thanks for watching!
High Rebecca, I need sitting here. Listening to you and you would discussing, What do you do all day? And I started laughing because my grandbaby is hanging off of my shoulder... And that is what I do all day. I let her do it! Great tips!❤
Thanks so much Milly! It’s really so important not to get distracted by all the pretty things they are to make and make what you actually need! Happy sewing!
Very helpful, and inspiring, thank you. The breakdown of pieces and colours chosen was incredibly helpful to me. I have SO many ideas that I end up feeling overwhelmed with my plans. I like the idea of ten pieces which I would make for Spring, leading into a UK summer. Thanks again, I hope we get to see some of your items made up!
Great video. This straightforward and to the point. You show the process well. This wisdom is essential for sewing and having a cohesive wardrobe that is functional and enjoyable to wear. Thanks for sharing.

I live in VA, too. And since I’ve been a sewing, I like to shop my closet first and sew what’s missing.
You’ve really nailed down the process of sewing a capsule here. This was a pleasure to watch. 😊
Thanks so much Linda!

Love it Zelda! Sitting with a baby all day sounds fantastic to me!
Really enjoyed the video. Your advice about looking and choosing pieces that fit your eveyday lifestyle is spot on. I need to do a better job of this.
