Samantha Dress
Dear sewists,
I hope that this post finds you well. I'm here today to write a little about my experience testing and sewing the SMYLY (that's, Sewing Makes You Love Yourself) Samantha Dress. This is particularly exciting because Samantha is SMYLY magazine's debut pattern!!!
Kitschy Heart
Hello everyone,
I hope that you all had a lovely Easter. Personally, I had to work Easter Saturday and Sunday, but at least I had Good Friday off! We went to a morning service and then on to the Telegraph Station, which is a beautiful nature reserve outside of Alice Springs.
Polka Dots in the Afternoon
Good evening (or morning!) everyone,
I hope that this finds you well. It's been a little longer between blog posts than planned, but c'est la vie!
Today I bring to you the Wren Dress by Colette Patterns. This dress encompasses a couple of firsts for me. Notably it's my first foray into the world of sewing jersey as well as being my first me-made clothing which I classify as a "maternity make".
Sewing Makes You Love Yourself!
Hello everyone!
Welcome to my second blog post. Today, I would like to share with you my
most recent make, this being my contribution to Sewing Makes You Love Yourself.
The First of Many
I have decided to give blogging a go, so by way of an introductory post, I want to explain my choice of blog name and a smidge of what “retro” means to me.
As a long-term admirer of vintage fashion and dress I wanted a nod to what initially drew me back to my sewing machine in the title.
