Right. Let's see some garment sewing.
This is an incredibly comfy Victory Patterns "Lola" dress. It's made of sweatshirt fabric and is cosy and generally a wardrobe favourite. Although I did have to replace all the trim after my lovely woolen rib stretched massively in the wash!
Chook shocked the heck out of me when she asked for a pink (PINK!!) sweatshirt. This is a much loved Linden sweashirt pattern by Grainline.
Grey Ginger jeans by Closet Case files. These are a mixed success. They are meant to be mid rise but are blatantly hipsters. and I don't mean in a man-bun no-fat soy latte sense.
But they are incredibly comfortable in the stretch denim. I just need to wear a long muffin-top hiding shirt with them! Bringing me nicely to....
...my Deer and Doe Bruyere shirt. I was attempting a girlish flannel shirt and it sort of worked. But my pearl snaps wouldn't grip through all the layers of brushed cotton so I had to make a million button holes and scramble for enough buttons! I must replace them with something nicer.

So I think this was my January sewing. Early 2017 at least - it feels like ages ago now!

Hi! I'll try really hard to reply to comments by email (unless you're a no-reply Blogger in which case I can't!) because I love getting your messages but I'm a working mum and don't always manage - I read and appreciate every single one!
