My TOP FIVE online sewing and craft retailers…
There’s no getting away from the fact that online fabric shopping can sometimes be tricky. It’s always lovely to be able to go into a shop and feel the fabric and know exactly what you’re getting before investing your hard earned cash. Unfortunately, particularly with the Covid lockdown situation and more and more retailers moving to online trading, this isn’t always possible so I’ve put together this little list of my top five online sewing and fabric stores in the hope that it might be helpful if you don’t know where to start! All of these shops I’ve used and would highly recommend based on my experience of product quality…

My Three Versions of the Davenport Dress by Friday Pattern Company…
Now and again a pattern is released, and you know immediately that you NEED to own it and get it into your wardrobe asap. This was the case for me when Friday Pattern Co released the Davenport Dress pattern. I loved the boho style of this dress and the little details involved, such as the gathered yoke at the back, the shoulder flutters, the elasticated neckline and let’s be honest – who doesn’t love a drawstring waist anything! I’ve made three versions of the Davenport since buying the pattern last year and in this blog I’m going to give a short run through of how I found the pattern initially…

Sewing My First Swimsuit | Megan Nielsen Cottesloe Pattern Review…
Buying swimwear is one of my pet hates, along with buying jeans and possibly bras ;0). For some reason I had always sworn I would never try and make my own swimwear, I just didn’t fancy the thought of sewing with all that elastic and lycra. But, when a recent upcoming holiday trip left me despairing trying to shop for a swimsuit I felt comfortable in, I decided that perhaps making something myself might be the best option. There are some lovely swimsuit sewing patterns out there in the sewing world but the one that kept on catching my eye and calling for me to give it a go was…

How to | Sew a Luxury Loungewear Set using the Hudson Pants and Jarrah Sweatshirt patterns…
I love a good loungewear set, it doesn’t take me long after walking in the door to change into something super cosy to sit and watch the tv in the evening, so this is one I’m really excited to share with you all. Back in autumn, over on YouTube, I made a video listing three high street looks I wanted to recreate for autumn/winter and one was a luxury loungewear set inspired by one similar to this Cashmere set from Debenhams. (My original inspiration was from The White Company but I can’t find that set anymore sadly). You can watch this video here and see what other looks I picked…
