Just keep sewing

Today I've made a boys shirt. It's an age 10, which is the biggest size my pattern goes to. I had to be really brave, and sort through my fabric stash to decide what fabric i was willing to use for clothes. I decided about 5% of my whole stash was 'acceptable' to use. So this shirt is mopeds/scooters. I do have enough left for another shirt.

I also decided it was time to try and take better photos, I think I succeed, but opinions and tips are gratefully received.

Finally, I think my dad feels a bit left out, because I've made Scarlett, Zane and my stepmum clothes and not him. Soooo does anyone know of a good man's shirt pattern? (By shirt I mean collar and buttons)

Sew, sew and sew!

It's been a while since i posted anything, and i'm going for a different take.

Everyday, i wake up and think about sewing. If i'm not going to my grandmas house to sew, i'm going to the local sewing bee at Hannahsroom.co.uk. Or, i'm in my pyjamas, and i roll out my room, into the next room and sit at my machine. There isn't an hour each day, that i don't think about sewing. 

Thats why, today, i'm pleased to announce, that i will start selling some of my makes. Primarily childrens clothes (yes, boys too, I want to make sure i do a good mixture of boys and girls), some quilts too, and on the odd occasion adults clothes. I can also make cushions and do free hand machine embroidery. I will try to be fresh with my business, and create unique pieces that are made to last.

If you want to take a look at my items, i post to my instagram page and also my facebook page. I will be posting more on here too, and will perhaps have items I will sell on here first. It will be made to order primarily, but i will make items to show off my patterns and what i can do. 

Wish me luck
