A Quick Christmas Make

The #knittingandstitchingshow has become something of a festive tradition for my mum and I - I think this is the 4th year of us attending together and it’s the second of us staying over the night before. After a lovely couple of hours @sluglettuce on Friday evening, we headed back to our @travelodgeuk and settled down for the night. The following morning I set off across a beautifully bright Stray to a cold and crisp @harrogate_parkrun and after breakfast we finally set off for the show. I was amazed to meet @sewoveritlondon @lisacomforthome in the flesh 😍. I came away with 5m of fabric - 2 x 2m viscose and 1m stretch crushed velvet from @thetextilecentre As usual, an utterly lovely and inspiring day that heralds the countdown to Christmas. • • • #knittingandstitching #harrogate #saturday #memade #handmade #inspiration #fabric #shopping #sewsaturday #saturday

This week was so busy that my latest post going live on @minervadotcom completely passed me by! Head on over there to read all about my @akpatterns #Sheonadress with gathered skirt, made from this gorgeous scuba crepe with a beautiful hidden detail 🤭 Link in profile. • • • #sheona #athinakakou #scuba #scubacrepe #dressmaking #handmade #memade #blogger #gifted #handmadewardrobe

This week I treated myself to a few supplies from @minervadotcom ~ I was inspired by the recent posts from @thezipperfoot and @whatabimakes and so purchased 3m of glitter felt {I didn’t even know this was a thing!} and a variety of festive ribbons and pom-poms all from @minervadotcom In my mind this will come together to create some festive bunting but I know it could also become some gorgeous individual decorations 🎄All I need now is time... • • • #craft #sewing #handmade #decorations #christmascrafts #christmas #christmasdecorations #memade #unique #glitter #sparkly #festive

Very pleased to have snapped up this little fella created by @daylegreenceramics this weekend 👑 I was lucky enough to be able to reserve him as I spotted him on here last week and knew I’d be sad to miss out. It turns out I was right to do so - his 5 companions didn’t hang around for long either. Thank you very much @daylegreen for excellent service and gorgeous ceramics 🙌🏻 • • • #ceramics #smallbusiness #craft #handmade #smallbiz #womeninsmallbusiness #daylegreenceramics

I’ve worn this dress already a few times but today was my first chance to get photos of my first ever @tillybuttons Indigo. I made it as a wearable toile using some fabric I bought from @thetextilecentre in the summer - it’s possibly a bubble crepe? I love the colours and dimensions of the florals and am really happy with how this dress came together. I made it as a size 5 although opted to size down to a 4 on my next version. I love the sleeves and the skirt length, and the way the weight of the fabric adds a bit of stability to the gathers on the sleeves. Swipe ➡️ to see the back view. I keep fantasising about making a rich plain red version and adding a white mini pom-pom trim. Would that be too much?! 🎅🏻 • • • #tatb #sewingindigo #Indigo #smock #smockdress #november #sunday #ukteacherswhosew #handmade #memade #pinkcoatclub #memade

I had a lovely few hours in Dewsbury yesterday on an impromptu sewing meet up organised between @akathimberlina and @sewlastminutelisa and gate crashed by the rest of us 😆 It was so nice to be able to talk about fabric, sewing and patterns for a few hours, including spending quite some time in the wonderful @luckyfashionsdewsbury I was restrained and only bought 2.5m of a metallic bronze jersey which is already washed and ready to roll. Thank you ladies for a lovely Saturday. Hope you don’t mind me borrowing your photos Ali! • • • #sewingfriendsarethebest #fabric #fabricshopping #saturday #sewsaturday #ukteacherswhosew
