Do you all love a ‘reveal’?
I know I do.
So here’s one from me….via the Great British Sewing Bee my bestest crafty programme on TV at the moment.
For reference you can find my original post here with the challenge I set myself and a few glimpses of my sewing room!
So…..Find your pattern:
…and…..
First some handy equipment tips…these are things I could not do without when sewing…
.
….and…
Mine are fiskars…really worth the expense if you sew a lot!
Now some work….
cut out your pattern….
and…
Remember to….
On preparation….
On red, red wine….
On Pinning….
On Zips….
On sewing in…
Biggest and bestest ‘Tip’ I could ever give you…..
On Neatening…
I like the inside of my garments to be as neat a the outside…..
I like a bit of topstitching…
not my best effort….? but looks better in reality honest!
are you ready…
Here it comes……
come closer….
Hanging on….
and I have some fave old plimmsolls to wear with it too
So what do you think?
I enjoyed this so much…. and do you know it fits me like a dream….I have another planned…this time from some lovely vintage fabric that has been hanging around for ages…..
Bestest as ever,
