Off to my nephew’s wedding in London today. Wearing an @theavidseamstress shift dress in cotton sateen from @minervacrafts. I had to make quite a few adjustments to the fit. I added some bias binding along the seam at the front of the dress. I chose the fabric as it matched my @boden_clothing shoes perfectly and I don’t get many opportunities chance to wear them #imadethis #memade #sewersofinstagram #sewingkeepsmesane #memade #memadewardrobe #whomadeyourclothes #imademyclothes#avidseamstress #theavidseamstress #avidseamstressshiftdress #minervacrafts

This is such a good reminder that there are lots of ways to enjoy (and even improve) your sewing! Thanks for sharing! ❤️ . @Regran_ed from @kristinchaya - “Practice does not make perfect / perfect practice makes perfect” was one of my swimming mantras. But like, yeah, that kind of discipline was great and all. But also I took it to quite the extreme. I am glad to report that I’ve chilled out a bit in advance of turning 30 😂 I love sewing even though, and maybe even because(!!) my craftsmanship isn’t exceptional....yet. #sewqueer #sewcialists #theavidseamstress #theavidseamstressshiftdress - #regrann

Normally we wouldn't share these sewing inspiration pictures until Sunday but as the deadstock fabrics that we launched yesterday are disappearing fast and only a few are still in stock we thought we would share the ones that are still in stock (although there is not much left) ✨ We chose these high quality fabrics as we thought they had a romantic feel to them: 💕 Red roses viscose satin has been paired with @silversagapatterns Juliette Dress 💕 Orange roses stretch cotton sateen paired with @theavidseamstress shift dress 💕 Grecian statues+ columns viscose crepe both used to make a @iam_patterns Marty dress 💕 Prowling tigers viscose satin paired with @paper_theory Agnes PJ's They were sourced from high end designers in Italy and the quality is exquisite 🌟 We are so pleased you love them as much as we do. Let us know in the poll which one is your favourite...
