Bits and Pieces
I’ve taken a few sewing related photos recently that I haven’t blogged about so this post is basically just a mish-mash of those pics with some commentary so that I’ve got a record. I’ve only recently sewn one other garment … Continue reading

Yet another Burda 02-2010-104

Cherry Puppytooth – New Look 6067
The title of this post is the name of the fabric that my local fabric shop used. It’s still my favourite fabric name ever. I know this blog can be a bit boring – I bought this, I made that … Continue reading
