So whilst taking a break from obsessively sewing, I seem to have developed a new obsession with planning upcoming makes! I've got a spreadsheet going on and everything, sourcing patterns, supplies and samples left, right and centre! 😂 Got to say I was totally blown away by the samples I ordered from @patternsandplains - I immediately bought a length of this fab modal/bamboo blend twill and can't wait to get stuck into it!! . . . #sewingcapsulewardrobe #seamstress #seamstresslife #lovesewing #diywardrobe #handmadecloset #homesewnwardrobe #makeyourownfashion #obsessivesewer #sewingismysuperpower #sewist #sewersofinstagram #slowfashion #imakemyclothes #ilovetosew #fabricsamples #twillfabric #

It was my birthday recently and I received lots of sewing related goodies including this fab #secretpyjamas pin from the lovely Kathy @sew_dainty - it's so cute and sparkly and I love it!! I may spam you with more stuff!! 🤣 . You may have noticed I've not been posting much lately; that's because I'm working on an all together different project at the moment - myself!! ✊Don't worry, I'm well and happy and planning upcoming sewing projects like crazy; I just need time to focus on getting my physical health firmly back on track having approached this too often but too half-heartedly in the past. . ((not a sponsored, affiliated or AD post - item was purchased 😁)) #sewinggifts #sewdaintyjewellery #sewsewsew #sewinghappiness #sewingjewellery #sewingfun #isew #sewhappy #sewme #sewingismysuperpower #sewingtherapy #sewistsofinstagram

Video calling my #sewtogetherforsummer co-hosts to pick the Winners!!! Glass of vino and random number generator at the ready!! (I do believe Monika has screen grabbed some even less flattering pictures than this but she's under strict instructions not to post them! 🤣😂) Wearing my #sukirobe which makes me feel fancy without making any effort!! 🤣 Hopefully able to announce the full list of winners tomorrow across our 3 feeds - • @sewsarahsmith • @sewing_in_spain • @rocco.sienna Good luck everyone!! 😘😘😘 . . . #sewhappy #sewfun #sew #sewingchallenge #sewcialist #sewingfriends #sewingkeepsmesane #sewingismytherapy #sewingismysuperpower #fortheloveofsewing

Sporting my #AshtonTop - which was totally out of my comfort zone in terms of its boxy shape - I chose to make the shorter length as I only had a scrap of this fab #robertkauffmanfabrics chambray left - I'd go for the longer view next time to balance my top heavy proprtions 😁 This was made in the earlier stages of testing and the pattern has been tweaked somewhat since but as with all Helen's patterns the finishing and instructions are 👌 On another note I've grown my hair out since this pic was taken and now I'm thinking 💇🏼‍♀️I should maybe lop it all off again!!?? Mrs Indecisive that's me! 😅 Pattern by @helens__closet Fabric from @minervacrafts . . . #helenscloset #helensclosetpatterns #sewinglove #isewclothes #sewersofinstagram #sewingismysuperpower #homesewing #sewersgonnasew #handmadewardrobe #sewcialists #instasewing #handmadeclothing #isewmyownclothes
