It’s December and the bonus episode is here! Caroline had an epic wine and cheese night with family, a gorgeous spa getaway, and TWO bouts of illness. Ups and downs. Helen went on a quilting retreat, is starting to collect things for her wedding, and has a weightlifting contest coming up! Both have a Christmas gifts to-sew list and fun events to attend in the coming month. Plus: new pattern releases, a mind-blowing hem hack, and mini-reviews of the horror movies we watched!
