Throwback: Betsy Bradley - 'Chasing Rainbows'
Springtime
A lovely throwback to a recent walk and these fabulous florals and colours.
Spring is a great time to see all the flowers in bloom; nice to have a bit of colour around too!
Happy Easter!
Hi All,
Happy Easter! Did you have a good Easter Weekend?
If you fancy a break from the Easter Egg hunts and chocolate eating, why not make a quick me-made bunny rabbit this Easter Monday?
A free pattern and instructions can be accessed on my 'Learn to Sew' page or via this link
The individual pages can also be downloaded on my pinterest site
Vintage Dress Pattern Continued...
So...I measured, size selected, full bust adjusted and it's still not right 😩
I'm with Holly Dennett on this one (follow her on instagram - @holly_dennett)...the sewing gods are having a bad week!
Commercial patterns can be really annoying at times!
Oh well...on to toile 2!
Testing a 'Vintage Style Dress' for an upcoming workshop
Coming up in July, I will be be running my 'Making a Vintage Style Dress' workshop at MAC Birmingham.
To prepare (and work through any pattern problems!), I've started to test one of the dress styles that are recommended for the class.
This one is a Simplicity 1950s Vintage Dress; style 8085; a wrap around dress with a 'V' back and a circle skirt.
The pattern is getting some major adjustments so i will be doing a test garment to check the fit; always a good idea if you make a lot of changes to a pattern.
There are still some places left on the course; click here to book your place
