I finished my #thesewingweekender project 🙌 😄. I made another @marillawalker #robertscollection jumpsuit as I love my green one so much. I’d originally intended to make the dungarees but I’ve worn the green one so much I went for the jumpsuit again. I sized down on the shoulders and I highered the neckline by about an inch on this version. The fabric is a cotton drill that was an absolute bargain! I found it in a fabric shop in the middle of nowhere in Western Australia, it was $2 a meter (so around £1.50) I got 4 meters as was worried about suitcase weight but wished I’d got more 😝 And of course the finishing touch was the gorgeous little label from @sewmesunshine.uk that we got in our goody bags 😃 I think this pattern has been my favourite make of the summer so if you’ve still not ventured into the jumpsuit world I’d definitely recommend it 😃 #sewing #sewist #isew #sewersofinstagram #dressmaker #dressmaking #memade #marillawalker #sewist #sewlittlesparrow #sewingweekender #sewingweekender2019 #sewleicester
Just been taking some pics of my latest @minervadotcom blogger make (Absolutely love this one!!) but I’ve had to share a sneaky peek as Dexy wanted in on the action but he sat down and posed so lovely bless him 😂 Fabric is an absolutely stunning Lady McElroy jersey and pattern is the @akpatterns #abijumpsuit (will definitely be making the jumpsuit again for sure) The full blog post will be on the Minerva site soon 😃 #sewist #sewing #dressmaker #dressmaking #isew #sewersofinstagram #memade #gifted #minervacrafts #ladymcelroy
I made a bikini 🙌🙌🙌 😄 This is my latest @craftysewandso #craftybloggersclub make so go check out their site for all the details. It’s definitely nowhere near as difficult as I think you build sewing swimwear up in your head and was actually a really enjoyable make. Think the only issue I had was I stretched out the elastic a bit too much in places. The fabric itself was absolutely fine to sew (and is so pretty). Pattern is the @fridaypatterncompany #vernazzatwopiece which I’ve had on the list for ages #sewer #sewing #sewersofinstagram #sewist #memade #dressmaker #dressmaking #gifted
I’ve finally ticked off another of my #makenine2019 makes 🤗. These are the @republiqueduchiffon #gastonpattern trousers. I thought they would look great in denim and I’ve got a lovely blue denim planned but wanted to make sure I got the fit spot on so these are a wearable toile in black denim I’ve had in the stash for ages. I’m really pleased with them and think the fit is actually pretty spot on!!! 🙌. Love the ankle grazing length and wide leg 😃 #sewing #sewist #sewersofinstagram #sewer #dressmaking #dressmaker #memade #isew
