One Stitch At A Time
It has been quite a while since I’ve been on the blog to share what I have been sewing ; my YouTube has taken a backseat, too. In fact, I’m not even sure I’ve mentioned to visitors of my blog that I now have a YouTube channel; if you’re not familiar with it, you can […]

Fresh from choosing my Make Nine projects for the year, I started with a project that was just in time as the snow and ice made an appearance – 3 January – Gertie’s Mrs Maisel inspired Swing Coat – Patreon Exclusive Pattern What can I say about this? I mean, look at it – it […]
