Got to teach the Beginners Sewing Course @makeat140 this weekend. So much fun!! Today’s outfit was the #avidseamstressdropsleevetop (which all the beginners made), #soiultimateculottes and the #ddlupin - accessories included my home made mask and home made cold brew coffee. It was a me-made kinda day. #avidseamstress #sewoverit #deeranddoepatterns #silk #viscosefabric #linenjacket #sewistsofinstagram #sewist #memade

It’s that time of year when we all look forward to the year ahead and the sewing community look to their plans for what they are going to make in the year ahead. Having compiled my plans it’s interesting to see that I have included 3 pairs of trousers and one of my aims this year is to make some well fitting trousers. I haven’t necessarily decided on the fabric that I will use yet but I have plenty of choice in my stash so that shouldn’t be a problem! I have compiled my make nine in 2023 which is the first year I have participated although I think the challenge has been running for 6 years. Patterns are: 1- #colettemoneta @seamwork 2-#ddmyosotis @deer_and_doe_patterns 3- #soiultimateculottes @sewoveritlondon 4- #lisboncardigan @itchtostitch 5- #katmmuletote @kylieandthemachine 6- #emelevatedblazer @ellieandmac_patterns 7- palazzo pants - not necessarily this pattern though 8- #soicigarettepants @sewoveritlondon 9- #sakenniewovenshirt @stylearc #memadeeveryday #isewmyownclothes #memadewardrobe #curvysewing #curvysewist #sewingismytherapy #sewingismysuperpower #sewingismyhappyplace #sewover50 #makenine2023
