This is dress pattern I drafted is from a inspirational picture I came across on Pinterest. I decided to make a pattern from it which I call the "Fancy Flare Dress". It's like a shirt dress with a button plaket. It also has pockets and a belt at the waist. I love gathering, so I made extra side panels to give the dress more flare around the waist. The fabric choice is a Olive color Cotton Stretch Twill.

So proud of my first ever swimwear! When I started sewing I never thought I'd be able to make something like this. It took some getting used to the fabric and techniques, and there are some wavy seams, but I'm really pleased with how it turned out and how it fits. I knew a Tilly and the Buttons pattern would be the best way to try swimwear for the first time - this is the Coralie one-piece with shoulder ruffles and a low back, with an added tie.

I realized that I needed to share the full post of my True Bias Shelby Dress make! This pattern is so fun and I'm glad I bought it. This dress has already traveled internationally and been worn several times. It's just so cute! I impulse bought some of this Feline Fine Viscose Challis several months ago. The pattern - I love it! It screamed 90s to me and like it would pair well with a pair of Dr Martens.

Sneak Peek The Clef Coat is a relaxed fit coat meant for woven or stable knit fabrics. This fabric really does lend itself to using a design with drape so elastic or drawstring would have been an easy hem finish. As you may realise by now, I overcomplicate patterns. Jackets need pockets - I finagled welt pockets instead of kangaroo pockets.
