  • A Festive Red True Bias Nikko Dress

  • Happy holidays guys! Somehow I managed to pull out all of the stops and make this dress in super quick time. Which is good, because my 'vision' was to make this to wear on Christmas day.  I haven't made a Nikko before, so it was a bit of a gamble as to whether or not I would like it... if it w [...]
  • My Christmas Gift Guide for Sewists

  • I cannot believe we are here, but I *think* it's officially the countdown to Christmas! So I've put together a little list of my favourite items for gifting to any sewist out there.

  • My Mustard Mila Dungarees

  • Finally I've gotten round to blogging my latest make – and she’s a vision of mustard loveliness! These are the Tilly and the Buttons Mila dungarees, which had been on my sewing hitlist for quite some time. I even bought this mustard denim (from Guthrie & Ghani) especially for this project – b [...]
