I’m officially breaking up for the holidays today, although sadly there’ll be no Christmas party or swapping of secret Santas or anything. I do love being self-employed, but there are definitely a few things I miss about my previous life.…

Blogs I love
I thought today I’d do a little round up of some sewing blogs that I love. Just because. Also I don’t have anything to show you at the moment, but when next week’s deadline has passed I will! So, without…

Hey everyone, sorry for the long(ish) silence. I really had no idea how hard it would be to entertain two squishes throughout the summer holidays and still try to find any time to sew/blog. Plus it was Phoebe’s first birthday…

It seems like ages since I blogged or even had a good few hours of uninterrupted sewing time. OK, so it’s been about two weeks, but it seems like longer. I’ve been having all sorts of ideas of things I’d…
My Handmade Wardrobe… the challenge is set!
I love making children’s clothes, obviously, but I’ve always shied away from making anything for myself. I don’t know why, but somehow it just seems more complicated. However, I have recently become very taken with the idea of having at…
Love Sewing magazine review
