My sewing energy hasn’t been the greatest over the last few days, and I’m reaching for one of my tried and true tricks to get it back on track: sewing a satisfying project. 
You know the ones! That relaxing project that just lets you hang out with some fabric, be creative and in not too much time, have a really pleasing finished project. 
These three patterns from Merchant + Mills are sewing patterns I talk about all the time at the shop - well, Clover is a new arrival, but the other 2 have been around and loved for awhile. These three work well for beginner garment sewists to gain more experience or, if you are more advanced, I find sewing a more straightforward project satisfying and stress-free!
Regardless of your experience level, I find if you’re struggling with your creativity a good way to solve that is to make something easy and fun. 
What do you do when you are not feeling creative?

Rosalind is one of favourites, especially for fall and spring when the seasons are changing. It's available in 20 statement making shades, that covers all of the seasons. Plus, it's great for when the weather is changing, as this delightful fabric looks stunning and also keeps you warm in the cool weather and cool in the heat! How it works is it creates a pocket of air between the fabric and your skin that helps your body regulate! Pretty cool, hey?⁠

Can you believe it!? Fall starts in just a few days. ⁠

Today, I'm squeezing in one last summer wear of my Sauvie Dress made from our exquisite Poppy Washed Linen. ⁠

I don't know about you, but if I can wear my handmade garments in multiple seasons, I will! Paired with a cute jacket and boots, this Sauvie will be worn into the cooler months. I think it would be cute with a fitted t-shirt underneath too! ⁠
