I’ve blogged about the new Geneva Cardigan by Coffee&Thread before – love it!!, so obviously, I couldn’t say no to the Geneva Cardigan Tour that started earlier this week. For testing purposes, I was asked to sew the pattern using both the ruffled collar and the ruffled sleeves – although I loved the result –… Continue reading The Geneva Cardigan Tour
The Bebekins Patterns by Diorella were a recent discovery and I was immediately captured by their vintage design. I purchased her first pattern – Polly pinafore, as soon as it was released and I loved it (obviously, it will take me longer to share my version here 😉 ).

For the last 5 years (at least), one of my New Year resolutions (sewing-wise, of course) is to complete a Liberty quilt. Obviously, so far my progress on that has been close to none – there are always “a project that needs to be completed” and sewing garments is definitely my top priority – I… Continue reading Handmade Christmas
