A bit late in the day (or rather month!) mentioning this but I’ve done a little tutorial in the current edition of @molliemakes mag on how to add a frilly pie crust collar and cuffs to an existing jumper. It’s a super fun and cute little embellishment just involving elastic and lace 😊 AND I will be filming a video for this year’s Sewing Weekender on all things ruffle - hacks/tutorials and inspo! Currently have a head full of frill puns as a result 😄

Sometimes it takes seeing someone’s version of one of my patterns on here to remind me of all the fun details - yep, I can forget my own designs! Like this beautiful #parklaneblouse from @thetwilightstitcher, with the standing collar, the shoulder ruffles and the full length cuffed sleeves - all the juicy bits! 😍 a great reminder what a perfect blouse (I sometimes forget it’s not just a dress pattern!) Park Lane makes for this time of year.

How utterly lovely are @paisleypirouette’s #piccadillypyjamas! If you look closely you can see she finished the edges with a pleated contrast trim instead of using bias binding and the effect is so pretty! I’m thinking if I made some PJs this nice I could get away with wearing them out and about when shops reopen next week - I’m not sure I’m ready to return to ‘normal’ dressing 😄

There’s nothing like a good dose of sunshine to get us thinking of summer sewing - and here’s some Kew inspiration from @memade.by.madeline to top it up! She’s used the gathered skirt from the expansion pack and hacked the straps to be ties, and the end result is quite simply summer-in-a-dress 😎🍋☀️

It’s been quite a week for me - celebrating my business’s fourth birthday, having an original design on the cover of @simplysewingmag and reaching 20k on here! 🎉 (Oh, and packing up our flat to move out - phew!) 😄 If you do pick up a copy of Simply Sewing this month you’ll get my ‘spring dress’ design - swipe for pics of the model and of me in my own version! I really love the swish factor of this dress - it has a tiered skirt, fancy frilly cuffs and the option to tie a bow at the neck! Plus it’s relaxed fit and two sleeve lengths means it’s perfect for the cooler days of summer, or could be layered and worn with tights for winter, as I’ve done 😊

Just a few hours left to get 20% off my patterns - the sale ends at midnight! If you need any further inspiration here’s Srebrenka @sewsilverluna888 pairing her Bakerloo Blouse with the Kew Expansion Pack straight skirt - isn’t that just a fantastic combo?! I love seeing my patterns paired together - the Bakerloo, Bloomsbury and Park Lane blouses all go well with Kew skirts, Camden pinafores (and skirts), and Portobello Trousers, then just throw a Richmond blazer over to top it off 😀
