Gorgeous new fabric from @holmsown ~ possibly destined to be either a @megannielsenpatterns #jarrah a @namedclothing #seliaknottee or maybe even a @tessutifabrics #mandyboattee The fabric is quilted and both sides can be used. Maybe it’s more suited to a jumper than a tshirt? I bought 1.5m, what would you make with it? • • • #quilted #pink #stripes #stripedstripey #knits #sewingwithknits #sewingforspring #brightsewing #greatbritishsewingbee #gbsb #gbsbsewalong #stretch #memade #imakethings #imakemyownclothes #ukteacherswhosew #halfterm #handmadewardrobe

Today I’ve been mostly working on @tillybuttons patterns x 2 ~ one #sewingnora and *ahem* another #sewingfreya but this one {pictured} has a couple of modifications. I’ve used this #brightsewing @loubodufabrics jersey ~ I don’t think I’ve seen anything sewn up in this yet. Oh, and all the while I’m watching #dirtyjohn on @netflixuk 🔪😰 • • • #gbsbsewalong #greatbritishsewingbee #sewingfreya #sewingwithknits #colourful #colorful #fluorescent #tatb #halfterm #tshirt #lace #imakemyownclothes #ukteacherswhosew #overlocker #janome #multicoloured #netflix #justjohn

My 2019 Make 9 is now up on the blog ~ link in profile. I’ve tried to be realistic with my choices this year and am trying to sew garments that I would buy in order to reduce my RTW purchases. Hop on over and let me know what you think of my choices: many of them are there thanks to the many talented sewists I follow online. It’d be great to hear if you’ve made any progress on your sewing plans for the year too. • • • #makenine #make9 #2019 #2019makenine #plans #sewingplans #resewlutions #tillyandthebuttons #tatb #sewingnora #sewingness #sewingmarigold #kalleshirtdress @closetcase.patterns #ogdencami @truebias @megannielsenpatterns #jarrahsweater @sewhouse7 #toastersweater @ninaleelondon #camdenpinafore #greatbritishsewingbee #gbsb #gbsbsewalong #memade #Imakemyclothes #memade #ukteacherswhosew

Today on the cutting table is this stunning fairy print mustard jersey which was so kindly and unexpectedly gifted to me for my birthday from the lovely @loubodufabrics 🎁 I’ve cut out the longer length tshirt with 3/4 sleeves, and the round neckline. I haven’t yet started sewing it up but I’m looking forward to seeing how this turns out. This colour isn’t one I own much of currently, but I love it and keep seeing so many beautiful mustard coloured items. The #sewingnora top is quite a different silhouette for me too, and one I think could be perfect for spring. • • • #gbsbsewalong #greatbritishsewingbee #tillyandthebuttons #tatb #sewingwithknits #knits #knitfabrics #Imakemyownclothes #ukteacherswhosew #halfterm #tshirt #stretch #oversized #fairy #fairies #mustard #ochre #yellow #Sundaysewing #memade

Here’s a sneak preview of my first make of half term plus an entry for #sewingfloralfebruary ~ I bought this pretty cherry blossom stretch velvet from @thetextilecentre stand @theknittingandstitchingshows back in November. There was *just* enough for this make, which I’m sure won’t be much of a mystery, but I’m hoping to get better photos before posting in full 🌸 • • • #gbsbsewalong #greatbritishsewingbee #tillyandthebuttons #sewingfreya #velvet #stretchvelvet #sewingwithknits #sewingforspring #cherry #cherryblossom #sakura #dress #dressmaking #memade #Isewmyownclothes #ukteacherswhosew #sewingwithknits #cowl #cowlneck #halfterm

How many projects is realistic for half term? Here’s the pile of fabrics I’m hoping to sew up over the next week. Quite a colourful selection eh? 🤩They’re all stretch fabrics, and I’ve tagged the sources in case you want to check if there’s some still available. The top one was purchased last weekend in store on a trip to West Yorkshire {and was an incredible £1 remnant!} and the pretty pink velvet type fabric at the bottom was from @theknittingandstitchingshows Harrogate back in November. This one is already cut out and ready to sew up into a Freya dress. There is a distinct possibility another couple of these fabrics will become Freya tops, with maybe a Nora or two to even things out a bit 😄 • • • #greatbritishsewingbee #gbsbsewalong #sewingfreya #sewingnora #tatb #tillyandthebuttons #sewingforspring #sewingwithknits #knits #stretch #memade #imakyownclothes #imadethis #ootd #halfterm #ukteacherswhosew
