The Creator

Hello! My name is Ashley, I created Lazy daisy Jones in 2013. I had just turned 50 & I wanted somewhere to connect with like minded women, aka my tribe. I wanted to share inspiration, the ups and downs & the joys of midlife. Here you will read about my lifelong love of sewing & crochet. I also share simple everyday style from my wardrobe & cruelty free beauty & skincare products I favour. Last, but not least I document the rustic, industrial & handmade interiors from our home. If any of the above interests you, come and join me via all the usual socials or you can sign up to receive the latest posts via your inbox.

Dodging the rain . . . Warning this post does not contain any sewing or crochet ! . My boy and I had just finished lunch, on a treasured day out before he went back to university. As we left the restaurant the rain came down, it poured. He snapped a pic, (can you tell he is studying for a photography degree?) . Here’s the thing. It has taken time for me to learn to like images of myself. I simply don’t like how I look in photos, do you? In my mind I’m slimmer, younger. It’s like those friends you haven’t seen for years, they stay young in your head until you meet up again. But this image the light, the rain, the memory of that day and the fact that my son @jacobcramp took it. I simply love it. . Wearing lots of layers and earrings from @mejuri . Normal sewing and crochet will resume tomorrow! 😎 . . . . . . . #thesweetlifeunscripted #lifeunscripted #gloomgrabber #joyspotting #inlove_withlife #yourvintagesoul #stayandwander #cherishandrelish #mejurifinecrew #disruptaging #mybeautifulmidlife #inlovewithlife #artinaging #inspirationirl #keeponevolving #agelessstyle #simplestyle #knowyourstyle #stylebeyondage #midlifeinstyle #midlifeminimalist #everydaydress #menocorestyle #midlifestyle #fewerbetter #slowerwardrobe #minimalmoodboard #menocore #ageisjustanumber

First make of 2022! . A vintage simplicity pattern 5001 60’s robe, as seen in previous grid post. I like to sew vintage and wear it in a modern way 😎 Thank you for the image suggestions yesterday too. You asked and I hope I delivered, as suggested some images of me wearing it and, do scroll on to see construction details and of course that cat ‘helping’ AGAIN! . French seams used for main seams. I love the collar and the raglan sleeve construction. I made covered buttons as I couldn’t find any big enough that looked attractive. I tried where possible to pattern match, but it’s difficult with large darts. Grey and white strip linen mix fabric bought from @sew__jessalli lovely fabric (I’m wondering if she has any left in beige ? ) Overall an enjoyable sew, I took my time even finishing some hems by hand. Super comfortable and surprisingly cosy to wear. Goes perfectly with my grey linen Pj’s 🖤 . Being a vintage pattern it is of course much larger size than I would usually make. As vintage patterns are now incredibly small Compared to today. So if you are a 12 you need to make a size 16 ! . I have a filing cabinet absolutely full of vintage patterns !

Completed yesterday . . . For 2022 I have resolved to sew things I need instead of buying new. My old fluffy robe has been recycled and is now the cats new favourite blanket ! I used some fabric I already had and delved into my vintage pattern collection. I sewed view one, the small full length robe, pattern is from late 1960’s. I used this linen mix grey stripe and I took my time with it, an enjoyable slow sew. I’m very pleased with the result and am photographing it today. Would you like to see it? Quick question, do you prefer to see sewing projects being worn or hung up or both? . . . . . . #sewingvintage #sewingvintagemodern #vintagesewingpatterns #vintagesew #vintagesewing #vintagesimplicity #sewyourown #memade #memadeootd #memadeeveryday #memadewardrobe #sewcialist #isew #handmadecloset #selfsewnwardrobe #sewcialite #sewista #sewistsgonnasew #sewallthethings #sewmuchfun #sewistsofinstagram #sewaddicted #ourmakerlife #modernsewist #celebratemymakes #sewstagram #fortheloveofsewing #diyfashion #sewingforsanity

Couldn’t resist on posting one more pic of my fave crochet blanket from last year . . . It’s been very handy with all the frosty grey days we’ve been experiencing lately. A heavy cosy blanket, big enough for us all to snuggle under. .

Dodging the rain . . . Warning this post does not contain any sewing or crochet ! . My boy and I had just finished lunch, on a treasured day out before he went back to university. As we left the restaurant the rain came down, it poured. He snapped a pic, (can you tell he is studying for a photography degree?) . Here’s the thing. It has taken time for me to learn to like images of myself. I simply don’t like how I look in photos, do you? In my mind I’m slimmer, younger. It’s like those friends you haven’t seen for years, they stay young in your head until you meet up again. But this image the light, the rain, the memory of that day and the fact that my son @jacobcramp took it. I simply love it. . Wearing lots of layers and earrings from @mejuri . Normal sewing and crochet will resume tomorrow! 😎 . . . . . . . #thesweetlifeunscripted #lifeunscripted #gloomgrabber #joyspotting #inlove_withlife #yourvintagesoul #stayandwander #cherishandrelish #mejurifinecrew #disruptaging #mybeautifulmidlife #inlovewithlife #artinaging #inspirationirl #keeponevolving #agelessstyle #simplestyle #knowyourstyle #stylebeyondage #midlifeinstyle #midlifeminimalist #everydaydress #menocorestyle #midlifestyle #fewerbetter #slowerwardrobe #minimalmoodboard #menocore #ageisjustanumber
