August’s bonus episode is here! Helen has been working hard and playing hard. Caroline and the Birdies survived the sale order hustle and bustle. Helen chats about a few new patterns she has in development and Caroline shares a bunch of personal sewing projects. Plus: a new niece, a new fave board game, and lots of new indie pattern releases!
