Lottie blouse from Simple Sew Love Sewing Magazine

Lottie Blouse and a new to Me Magazine.

A little while ago whilst browsing Instagram I noticed a friend had bought a new sewing magazine, intrigued I asked her about it. She recommended it to me and added that if you subscribe you received the Tilly and the buttons book “love at first stitch” free. Win win, I subscribed (of course I did!) It included a simple looking pretty pattern that caught my eye. The Lottie Blouse by Simple Sew. I especially loved the pussy bow tie neck, and resolved to make a bigger bow for my version. I found the perfect fabric too, Printed yachts on a beautiful blue background.

A few days ago the postie delivered issue 2 of Love sewing Magazine. Guess what? I do love it. Best of all is the free pattern by ‘Simple Sew’ it is the Lottie Blouse and skirt.

I started sewing the Lottie Blouse immediately.

I even kept to the nautical theme of the one shown in the magazine. Who doesn’t love a nice yacht print?

lottie blouse is a quick sew

Easy to cut out, easy to sew…here it is half complete…

I changed a couple of things, I applied the neck binding in two parts, not all in one as suggested.

I changed the method of finishing the hem and sleeves, because I had cut out my own bias binding and had plenty left over. Therefore I used it up by binding the hem of the blouse and the sleeves. Its a neater finish, but fiddly to do.

Lastly I applied the neck tie as if sewing on a collar, it hides the messy bits and is far more comfortable to wear with no hem sticking out.

Pussy cat bow….

Thank you Love Sewing Magazine and Sew Simple a great collaboration

Proud Muvva ! 
2nd year of his commercial photography degreeand a selection of my boy’s @jacobcramp work can be found in @pierjournal issue 2.
I think he takes timeless portraits. He only uses film and develops his own film too. I won’t mention what he thinks about digital photography ( 😳) 
He is also becoming an very good cook. He cooks for us when he visits. 
I can’t wait to see what the future brings for him.

Me, my dog, a bowl of crochet monsters, coffee brewing and chocolate digestives in the tin. Welcome to my world. I’m so rock ‘n roll it hurts!
.
Book is where the patterns for the monsters can be found, save for reference it’s a good one.

A bowl of fossils found on the beach. Large jar of hag stones that Marc brings home for me. A collection of beautiful @penguinclassics from a house clearance sale. An old wooden panel from a skip. An Ikea lamp that is 25 years old. Bits and bobs from boot fairs. 
All this and more makes for a home with spirit and personality and a very pretty #shelfie !
