I've been blathering on about sewing my own bras for years and finally, FINALLY I've made my first! I finished it this morning and I've worn it all day; it actually fits!! I am sooooo stoked right now - my boobs haven't been this perky for years! 😉 I'm going to dive straight in and make myself a second, black pair...I feel something of an obsession coming on! ============================== • Pattern: is the #blackbeautybra by @emeralderinsews - I highly recommend! • Fixings : I purchased kits from #emeralderinsews • Fabrics : Jacquard duoplex and powernet both purchased from @sewingchest =============================== #brasewing #bramaking #handmadelingerie #diylingerie #millennialsewing #lingeriesewing #sewinglingerie #instacouture #coudresalingerie #ilovesewing #sewover40 #sewistsofinstagram #sewingmakesmehappy #seamstresslife
Makers Gonna Make! 🤗 My latest #elliotsweater - (did you see @helens__closet has increased the size range on this pattern?) - this 'army green' roll neck top is up on the @minervadotcom site (look under 'Blogger Network') if you fancy a closer look. • AND/OR join me over on my blog ((link in my profile 😉)) where I've a chat about the tools and accessories you might need if you're thinking of getting a @officialcricut_uk 'Maker' machine to embellish your sewing projects and fabrics like this! • As for me, I'm off to nap on the sofa to sleep off an excessive Sunday lunch!! 🤣 . . . #makersgonnamake #instasewers #cricutmaker #makerchronicles #sewsewsew #memadeclothes #handmadeclothes #seamstresslife #handmadecloset #handmadelove #sewcialist #ilovetosew #createmakeshare #sewingproject #diyfashion #sewcrafty #cricutcrafts #sewing
I sometimes wonder who I'd be if I hadn't discovering sewing ... whether I'm sewing clothes, crafting something, cooking dinner, raising my kids, making a home - being a 'Maker' is at the centre of a lot of what we do and who we are isn't it ... so I stuck it on my arm; as you do! 🤣 .

Remember my Maria crossback apron? She's had a makeover! I'm having far too much fun doing stuff like this; the kids go back to school tomorrow - I'm a bit worried that by the time they come home again I will have stuck vinyl to every single available surface!!!! 🤣 . ============================== • Apron is the #mariaapron by @mavenpatterns • motif created by designing a Print & Cut file in @officialcricut_uk 'Design Space' using printable vinyl and my #cricutmaker machine • more info and other sample Cricut projects up on my blog 😁 ============================== . . . #sewinguniform #craftedwithcricut #sewingroom #printablevinyl #cricutcrafts #cricutdesignspace #cricutuk #createmakeshare #sewingandcrafting #ilovetosew #creativelifehappylife #fortheloveofsewing #imadethis #sewover40 #sewingismysuperpower #sewingchronicles #sewcialists #makeallthethings
Another very Happy New Year as my sewing space has evolved yet again! This time to accommodate my new Cricut Maker machine! I've had an absolute blast learning how to use this baby - from adding vinyl decals to my machines, creating customised t-shirts, dolls clothes and cushion covers ... and that's just to start! I've a beginner's review up on the Blog if you're curious to see how this machine works! . ((Disclaimer : I was given the machine for review purposes)) . . ============================= Machine : @officialcricut_uk #cricutmaker ============================= . . #sewingtools #cricutcrafts #makersgonnamake #sewcrafty #craftersofinstagram #weareallmakers #cricutuk #sewingroom #sewingspace #createmakeshare #memade #makerchronicles #creativelifehappylife #memadeeveryday #makersofinstagram #meetthemaker
Wish I'd cut the print the other way up 😂 but hey ho ... here's a closer 👀 at the piping / notched collar and pattern matched cuffed breast pocket of my Carolyn PJs. I took photos for the blog of the steps I take to match pieces like this (there's still time to enter the Giveaway for the @patterntraceuk I use too!) But now I've downed my sewing tools for this year - instead I've been baking up a storm in readiness for 🎍🎉Christmas!! 🎁🎄 Happy Holidays everyone!!!! 🥂 . .
