Hello lovelies
I've been on a mission to make myself a range of different sweatshirt patterns lately (as you will have probably seen!). I guess this is just out of curiosity to test the fit and style of a bunch of them. This particular pattern has been in the pile for so long, and I was excit [...]

- 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 [...]

Morning lovelies!
So, we're nearly at Christmas... how did this even happen?! Life feels pretty darn hectic... and I know I'm not the only one to be feeling the pressure right now. So to keep myself sane, and fight the anxiety of those endless Christmas lists I have been mentally writing in m [...]

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. A few of the items I already own, and they have been such lovely gifts to receive in the past that I really wanted [...]

I loved the Jenny Overalls so much the first time round, I just had to make some more!
After I made my first pair (here), I swiftly sourced more fabric from Like Sew Amazing to make a second pair. As soon as I laid eyes on the colour of this one I was sold. It's a beautiful shade of teal whic [...]

Well I’ve been up to my old quick-sew tricks again… and here I have a very exciting new pattern from Megan Nielsen which I had the pleasure of making a little ahead of release. The pattern name is Jarrah, and I was head-over-heels in love with version C from the moment I first laid eyes on it. I [...]

If you have followed me for a while, you might already know that the deep love of sewing is not the only thing Sarah and I have in common – we also share the same birthday! Birthday twins, [...]

It’s official guys – sweater weather is well and truly upon us. And I couldn’t be happier. Why? Because Autumn is my fav. The colours, the crispy coldness (only it has to be sunny too for me to be ok with this part!), the crunchy leaves under foot, fireworks, pumpkins, hot chocolates and oh – No [...]

Guys, I am so excited to share this make with you! Not only is this my first project as part of the Like Sew Amazing Blogger Team, but this is also my first ever pair of Closet Case Jenny Overalls and I can't stop gushing over them!
The fabric I used was a linen viscose blen [...]

- Just a quick little make I wanted to show you all today! I drafted a BRIGHT YELLOW half circle skirt… and I love it!
I ordered the fabric from Sew Me Sunshine a while back, just falling in love with the colour. It is a viscose twill – a combination which I don’t think I have come across before. But [...]

- 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 [...]

Howdy stitchy friends! I'm thrilled to be showing you all my latest make. I have been absolutely gagging to sew up a Kalle Shirt Dress for so long - in fact it is one of my #2018MakeNine, so yay to ticking another make off the list!
So when Spoonflower got in touch to talk a [...]
