ON POINT
Sooo another month (or two, or perhaps three?!) has flown past and here we are 🫣 Happy new year everyone! I hope you had a wonderful festive period. I am mega excited to report that we spent ours in OUR NEW HOUSE! Yep, we’ve moved in, and after twenty years of renting we can finally…

Tie dye 4 lyf
Happy Sunday, sewing peeps! How’re things in your neck of the woods? I for one am glad that the totally savage heatwave is over (can it be autumn now plz?), but on the flip side, it meant I got to wear a cool new hat that I made 🤩(Technically I didn’t ‘make’ the hat… but…

Queen of the craft fair
Happy long weekend guys! And, what’s even better is that here in London we actually have good weather for this bank holiday weekend – unheard of! Well, I say ‘good weather’… we’ve had some sun, but we’ve also had pretty strong winds and some random heavy rain showers to go with it. (It’s just not a…

Make me (up) before you go go
Along with coats, Kielo dresses and Scout Tees, another one of my little sewing obsessions is things that hold things. Pouches, bags, organisers – I love ’em. I went large and made myself a Noodlehead Makers Tote a while back (and the second one of those will be hitting the blog soon!) but I also have…

An Absolute Dog’s Dinner
Sometimes, it’s nice to mix things up a bit. Keep ’em fresh, y’know? I love sewing clothing (espesh when it turns out really well), but it’s often quite an intensive process – there’s tracing the pattern (maybe 🤪), cutting the fabrics, prepping any interfacing and whatnot, and then the whole sewing process where there could be zips,…

Excess Baggage
When I saw that Minerva had started stocking the By Annie patterns, I got a little bit excited. There were many patterns that I liked, but the Round Trip Duffle bag stood out – I was heading to Paris in a few months, and it would be just perfect to take with me! I’ve made…

Papa’s got a brand new bag
If you’re a regular here in my little corner of t’internet, you might remember that I started planning a gym bag at the end of last year after I got back into running again, and it was going to have girls and latex and guns. Because why not? (If you missed that post, go catch…

Isn’t it bionic, don’tcha think?
You guys know that every now and then I like to mix up the garment sewing with a bit of bag-slash-pouch making. It helps keep the mind fresh with all that will-I-won’t-I-succeed fear of new techniques and materials. A bit like the roulette I play with the hills on my cycle home towards the end…
