Catching Up! Are Sewing Expos Worth It?

In this episode, Aaronica Cole and Julian C. Collins catch up after a short podcast break to talk sewing expos, travel, and the upcoming Atlanta Frocktails event.

Aaronica shares her excitement about a new challenge she launched that ties in perfectly with Frocktails, while Julian reflects on the importance of self-compassion after stepping away for some rest. They chat about recent life updates—Aaronica’s spring break plans and mental reset, and Julian’s first international trip to Switzerland, where he found unexpected peace and inspiration.

They also dive into the evolving role of sewing expos, the value of hands-on fabric experiences, and Aaronica’s upcoming bralette sew along. The episode wraps with outfit plans for Frocktails and the announcement of the So Tailored For You Challenge 2025, a celebration of personal style and creative expression.
