📅 JOIN THE SEW ALONG! JANUARY 27, 2026
Join us for a live sew along on Zoom. We will be hacking The Gemella pattern to make a designer-inspired wallet. Inspired by the Dior Saddle Vertical Wallet*, this twist on the Gemella pattern has a curvy, asymmetrical flap. The sleek, minimalist interior has 16 card slots and an optional ID window.
The sew along will take place on Tuesday, January 27, 2026 at 1 pm EST (10 am PST). It will be hosted live on Zoom by Chris Murphy, as if we’re sitting in a virtual room and sewing together! You may choose to keep your camera on or off — whatever you’re comfortable with.
When you register, you will automatically receive an email with a .ZIP file that includes:
- The Gemella PDF Pattern (retail value: $19.99)
- Additional pattern pieces that you'll need (exclusive to this sew along, not available for individual sale)
- Steps to prep your pattern pieces

We will also send a reminder email 1 hour before the event begins.
