Suzie from Threadquarters has made the most stunning Seren dress from our mid blue Tencel. There is some serious dress envy going on here! ******** I am back today to share my second make for the Like Sew Amazing Blog Squad. For my first LSA make I wasn’t exactly sure what I wanted to make, and […]
The newly released Deer and Doe Myosotis dress was the SewMyStyle 2018 pattern for May. We were unaware of what the pattern would be until a few weeks before its launch but we took a chance as we all love Deer and Doe. When I first saw the line drawing, I wasn’t too sure it […]

I had bought some gorgeous leopard print […]

Jessica Lorraine is heading up this year’s initiative and all of the details can be found over on her blog. The other lovely […]
I have no idea why it has taken me so long to make my first By Hand London Anna dress. This pattern was released in 2013 but it is such a unique style that I don’t think it has aged at all. I bought the pattern a while ago, after trying on one of Vicky […]
I don’t really know where to start except to give you all a huge thank you. To everyone who took the time to read my last post, and send me messages of love and support, I am genuinely so touched. When writing it, I didn’t dare think that so many people would even read it, […]
