How good is that? Sewing attempts: with latitude - petite style. Thursday, 15 January 2015. What was I thinking. This is one project I just could not understand - making a stock-standard bra. Nothing spesh. Plain and ordinary. Kwik Sew 3300 has been around and has been reviewed by lots of really competent sewing bloggers. Right now there are so many new bra patterns that it made no sense for me to buy another pattern until I cracked this pattern. This underwire bra pattern uses. Self made wire channelling.

Venice – Handmade Lives
https://handmadelives.wordpress.com/2015/01/05/venice
HELPING UK CRAFTSPEOPLE MAKE A LIVING by Dixie Nichols. January 5, 2015. January 14, 2015. In November I went to Venice; wet Venice, Venice of mists and high tides. A visit to Venice makes me feel improved with my eyes properly feasted. That’s why I share these pictures, a little tiny, much diluted teaspoon of Venice is better than none. After nights of furiously sloping water and a rowdy monkey orchestra of battering raindrops the. Siren announced yet another day of duck boards and wellingtons. It’...

Feeling peachy – Charlotte Newland
http://www.charlottenewland.com/2016/07/feeling-peachy.html
I’m sure that I’ve mentioned this before, but just in case I haven’t, a major part of my love of dressmaking is down to the fact that it gives me the chance to wear clothes that are slightly less than conventional. In this case, a dress covered in peaches. With ric-rac. And a big pink border at the hem. Perfectly normal attire for a forty-three year old, amirite? I managed to snag a couple of metres in the sale at The Village Haberdashery. As well as some pink ric-rac. 21 July 2016 at 12:02 pm. Love the ...

Blimey – Charlotte Newland
http://www.charlottenewland.com/2016/07/blimey-2.html
Well, that was quite a ride. Having kept the result a secret for the last three months, it’s a bit of a shift realising I can finally talk about it. So if you’ll excuse me for a moment…. Ok, got that out of my system. Much better. Also, a huge thank you to my family, without whom, etc etc. My lovely husband, the kids, their dad, and of course Ruth, their incredible stepmum. Everybody pitched in to help out. Oh god – I sound all Oscars-acceptance-speech. Sorry about that. 6 July 2016 at 5:54 pm. Yay, you ...
