One Stitch At A Time
I have been disgracefully lax in my blogging in the last few months; it has been unavoidable but I am going to try and catch up on what has been happening in my sewing room over the last couple of months. Viola Dress I tested the new pattern from Schulz Apparel, the Viola dress, a […]
Sewing has taken a bit of a back seat at the moment between work amping up – I’ve had a promotion which comes with a lot more work and will take some getting used to – and have been working through a few weeks illness as well. Nevertheless, when I have had some energy, I’ve […]
Admittedly, I had to look back at my Instagram grid to find out what I made in March – life has been so packed and busy my days, weeks, and months all seem to roll into one… I started with a Charm Patterns Stanwyck Skirt as I have been trying to add a few more […]
It’s been the longest of months, ironically, given that it is the shortest month. Honestly, though, it has felt as if it was 8 weeks long. Work has started to take its toll (so too has the winter, I feel) and I’ve had less time than ever to sew. That’s not to say I have […]
The second week into February and I have not done a lot of sewing this month yet, let alone take account of what I made in the month of January. Saying that, I did launch a YouTube channel where I made a couple of videos showing off my makes in January (of which there were […]

Given that it’s November 15th, and I’m only now getting the opportunity to sit and write up my makes for October, it surprises me that I managed to get much made at all. It has been a much quieter month for me, sewing wise, for reasons I won’t go into here. Nevertheless, there are some […]
You can always consider it a safe bet that one of the first things that will ever come up in my sewing diary is a Charm Patterns make. That’s because 9 times out of 10 the monthly release from Gertie’s Patreon is right up my street. The Mariner Top Ok, ok, so I didn’t make […]
I almost forgot about my sewing diary this month – and it may well be my last month featuring summer clothes. I’m moving on to autumnal shades and patterns now. Peppermint Magazine Paddington Top As you know, most of my makes are dresses so it take something special to make me want to make a […]
