What’s Happening This Month in The Bag Makers Sew-Ciety Club?

June is shaping up to be a brilliant month inside The Bag Makers Sew-Ciety Club, and I’m so excited to share what we’ve got planned! Whether you’re sewing along live or catching up in your own time, there’s loads to get stuck into — and of course, the warm and welcoming community is always ready to cheer you on.


👜 This Month’s Sew Along: The Annabelle by SiahSwag

This month, we’ll be making the Annabelle bag by SiahSwag — a stylish, structured bag and our version will feature a quilted front panel, an added zipper accent pocket, and beautiful feature piping. I’ve made two of these already, and I can’t wait to make it again with you all.

I will say, though — I’ve yet to actually keep one! One went straight to my daughter, and the other to my mum... and this one? Well, that’s going to one of you. Yep — every month, the bag I make during the sew along goes into a prize draw for one lucky club member to win. Could it be your turn this time?


🎥 Live Sew Alongs — Every Tuesday at 7.30pm

Each Tuesday evening at 7.30pm, I go live to walk you through the bag in manageable sections. Whether you like to sew along in real time or prefer to watch it back later, every session is recorded and uploaded into the members area so you can follow along at your own pace.


✂️ BONUS: Piping Masterclass

To go alongside this month’s make, I’m also running an in-depth piping masterclass, where we’ll cover different types of piping and how to apply them — from classic fabric piping to faux leather piping and more. You’ll pick up tips you can use in so many future projects.


🧵 More Sewcials Than Ever!

As always, there’ll be our monthly Sewcial — a relaxed, chatty virtual get-together where we catch up, share what we’re working on, and just enjoy being around other bag makers. And this month, I’m adding in an extra mid-week Sewcial too, so you’ll get two opportunities to join in!


💬 The Best Bit? The Community ❤️

With an exclusive Facebook group and a private WhatsApp chat, the thing I hear over and over again is that the best part of the Sew-Ciety Club is the sense of community. It’s friendly, encouraging, and full of bag makers just like you — ready to share ideas, celebrate wins, and lend a hand when you hit a tricky bit.


💻 Want to Join the Club?

If you’re not already a member of The Bag Makers Sew-Ciety Club and you fancy joining in the fun, you can find out more and sign up right here. Whether you’re looking to improve your skills, connect with other bag makers, or just want a bit of creative company each week, I’d love to welcome you in!


It’s going to be a busy, inspiring month — and I can’t wait to sew with you.

Until next time, happy sewing — and may your bobbin always be full. 🧵✨
