As we wrap up 2025, we’re slowing down, reflecting, and looking ahead with intention. In this final episode of the year, Audra and Bethany dive into how to set sewing (and life) goals for 2026 that actually feel good - not overwhelming, not guilt-filled, and not destined to be abandoned by February.
We start with a little reflection on the moments from 2025 that made us proud (including big trips, big leaps, and a whole lot of growth), then walk you through simple, practical ways to shape goals that fit your real life.
We talk about:
- How to identify your why before you set any goals
- The three types of goals every sewist should consider: skill, project, and system goals
- How to use the “Start, Stop, Continue” method to reset your habits
- Why it’s okay (and healthy!) to let your goals evolve as you do
- Planning tools and micro-systems that support your creativity instead of stressing you out
- The power of tiny actions like 15 minutes of sewing, one seam a day, or a monthly reset
We also share our own words of the year and sewing goals for 2026 - from streamlined focus to exciting new growth - and wrap things up with a little “you love to see it” moment and a peek at what’s coming next.
Whether you’re a hardcore planner or someone who usually avoids resolutions altogether, this episode is here to help you create a sewing year that feels supportive, joyful, and aligned with the life you actually live.
Join us as we close out 2025 and stitch our way into a creative, intentional 2026.
