Which sewing challenges are you excited to get involved with this year?

Upcoming 2025 sewing challenges

There are so many great sewing challenges that take place every year - I've created a blog post so you can see when they are: https://stashhubapp.com/2025-sewing-challenge-forecast/
Personally I'm most excited for Sew Yellow For Endo in March and Project Dress A Girl in September (both great causes) plus obviously Sew Fruity in June since I'll be the one hosting 😉
Let me know if you're thinking of hosting your own challenge this year! These are some fun themes I don't think I've seen before:
- Colour blocking/print mixing
- Bra/lingerie making
- Fitting (not sure how that could work but we all need it!)
Thank you Yvette for creating a blog for the sewing challenges, it will help keep my sewjo going.
Happy Sewing 🪡🧵

This is awesome Yvette thank you so much for sharing this! I love Sew Fruity!!

Everyone can did out that classic strawberry fabric from the Darling buds of may box if they still have it 😉
I've only ever managed 'sew April blouse' which is obviously in April. I just don't get around to taking part in the others so far. Hoping to change that this year 😁 happy sewing

Last year I took part in sew frugal and loved it. I hope I can do it again. I've bought some material ready for Sew Fruity and I might have a go at Sew Yellow too
Thank you for the list, Yvette❣️
Will try Sew Fruity and Me Made May 🙌

Hi Yvette,
Dee and I made a list of which sewing challenges are a priority for 2025!
My memory is so poor, but the ones I'm looking forward to are:
Sew frugal
April Blouse
Sew fruity
Project dress-a-girl
SewFizzTcated 🤩

Hi Yvette
Do you have any details, or dress recommendations, for Project Dress A Girl.
I'd really like to make a few dresses if I can, but unsure where to send them. Is there a UK contact?
Thanks

Here is the UK website for Dress A Girl Around The World, including pattern recommendations and requirements. dressagirlaroundtheworld.co.uk/index.html
The UK ambassador is called Jacqui. She takes a break from receiving donations over the summer, so worth popping her an email at jacqui-dressagirl@outlook.com to make sure she's collecting when you're ready to send.
They often share photos of the dresses arriving at their destination on social media, so it's worth keeping an eye out for your makes! I've seen a couple of my dresses being worn by girls in Uganda and it's so rewarding!

Thanks Yvette for your detailed response. Appreciate all the info. Thank you again. X

I’m really looking forward to anything involving cozy layers maybe something with wool or cashmere! A poncho or wrap challenge would be perfect this season.

Hehe, I can tell you're loving cashmere at the moment!! Ooh a poncho challenge would be pretty cool! "Wrap It Up"?!

loving the idea and who knows i might have somthing for the challenge.

I haven't come across a challenge with this theme yet. It's a great idea! Maybe you could host it!
