Now up on the blog ~ my entry for this week’s @sewisfaction #gbsbsewalong #sustainability challenge. Another @tessutifabrics #mandyboattee in vintage fabric 🌿🍂🍃 I shopped my stash and used some fabric that was gifted to me. Swipe ➡️ to see who made their way into the playground today {and then may have spent a little while in my office before being returned to her owner 🐶} Thank you to Sheona for organising, plus to @tillybuttons @newcrafthouse @closetcase.patterns for sponsoring 🤗 • • • #vintage #sewstainability #memade #Imakemyclothes #ukteacherswhosew #dressmaking #sewingbee

Four pieces of fabric prewashed and drying in the sunshine this morning 🌞 I’m definitely hoping to do some Sunday sewing today but I haven’t yet decided what to make. Three of the pieces on the line are vintage and were gifted to me so possibly could count towards the @sewisfaction #gbsbsewalong #sustainability week. I’m thinking a @truebias #ogdencami could be good and possible with one of the smaller pieces ✂️ • • • #Sunday #sundaysewing #dressmaking #sewingforspring #imakemyownclothes #memade #vintage #preloved #gifted #seventies #eighties #freshair #breathe

Now up on the blog ~ my entry for this week’s #gbsbsewalong #Stretch challenge ~ the Mandy Boat Tee! Spoiler alert: I love it! 💙💛💚 Link in profile 🔗 Swipe ➡️ to see me doing my day job. Exactly how many cubes tall is the head teacher? • • • #mandyboattee #tessutipatterns #fabworks #scuba #stretch #sewingwithknits #floral #spring #springflowers #oversized #memade #Imakemyclothes #memade #handmade #sewingbee #ukteacherswhosew

Today I ran my first half marathon of 2019: Retford Half. I haven’t run much lately and definitely hadn’t trained for this race so my aim was to try to get round, and hope to not be too far from 2 hours. I ran alone and because of the rain and wind didn’t look at my watch once, but somehow managed to finish in 1.54.02, which I’m thrilled with 🙌🏻 • • • #retfordhalfmarathon #retfordhalf #halfmarathon #roadrace #roadrunning #spring #race #raceday #Sundayrunday

It’s so strange how things you plan carefully and take your time over can leave you feeling a little bit meh, whereas those you chuck into the sewing queue because you have just the right amount of leftover fabric and don’t have anything to lose can turn out 👌🏻 Here’s a sneak preview of my first @tessutifabrics #mandyboattee ~ which will hopefully be my entry for this week’ #gbsbsewalong #stretchchallenge 🤞🏻~ if I can photos 📸 Has anyone else been partaking in some #saturdaynightsewing ? • • • #ukteacherswhosew #Imakemyclothes #top #tshirt #scuba #sewingwithknits #memade #floral #sewingleftovers #overlocker
