Welcome to the Twig + Tale Wings Sew-Along! We are so pleased to have an opportunity to gather with other members of the Twig + Tale sewing community to create some beautiful wings together.
Over the course of the Sew-Along, we'll go through the process of sewing wings from the Twig + Tale Wings Collection. Each wing style is inspired by nature + fantasy, featuring beautiful shaping, detailed quilting lines, and contrast appliqué. They are absolutely perfect for dress-up, costumes, and imaginative play.
Though a bit more involved than most T+T patterns, we hope that you enjoy the process of tackling a slightly more challenging and detailed project. The result is ever so satisfying - a pair of beautiful, unique wings that will last for years to come.
How the Sew-Along works
We will publish a series of five articles, one for each part of the sew-along. These articles outline goals for each part of the sew-along, and provide supplementary information to the pattern tutorial. In keeping with our "slow-sewing" ethos, the sew-along is presented at a manageable pace, giving you time to enjoy the process and complete each step without feeling rushed.
We'd love to see what you are working on in the T+T Treehouse, where we are hosting this sew-along in February 2026. Joining is free, and away from the hustle and bustle of social media, if you're keen to enjoy some camaraderie as you work. (We'll be giving away some gift card prizes as well, for those participating!)

Your Sew-Along Host
My name is Angela Schade. I help out behind the scenes at Twig + Tale, writing tutorials, articles, and sew-alongs for the T+T Blog. I love working with beautiful natural fibres like linen and wool, and spend as much time as I can sewing, embroidering, or knitting.
