When you have absolutely no idea what colour thread to use... Brown? Purple? Beige? Blue? 🤷‍♀️ #plaid #tartan #memadeeveryday #worcestershiresews #cosysewing #matchingthread
#stormciara has put me in the mood to stay in PJs all day tomorrow. No way will these be ready in time but I might as well get started. And I’ve said this a lot - but I do wish more indie pattern designers would include lengthen and shorten lines as standard. Pretty please @sewoveritlondon ?#soiultimatepyjamas #comfysewing #sewcake #sewingtall #instasewing #imakemyownclothes
After some time away from regular sewing (and sewing Instagram – did I miss anything?) over the winter, the bright sunshine today has got me inspired to try something new, and a bit more precision! 
This is the pocket on an extra-long #blackwoodcardigan in charcoal ponte roma fabric. It’s also really, really hard to photograph!

I’ve finished something – hurrah! This shirt for Mr Wardrobe has been a long time coming, but it’s finally done. I’m still not sure if it’s going to get worn though – it might not be his style any more! More details, and a handful more pictures are now on my blog (link in profile)
 It’s a @threadtheorydesigns Fairfield shirt in lovely organic cotton gingham from the Organic Textile Company and @thedrapersdaughter.
