Bonjour!

Welcome to my blog, I'm Faye, the resident stitcher here at The Fair Stitch. I'm Indonesian living in the North West of England.
When I'm not sewing, I love to spend my me-time either drawing, journaling, reading a book, or baking.
Please feel free to come in, say hi, and share your creative endeavours.
Thank you for stopping by. 🙂

🎨 To practice any art, no matter how well or badly, is a way to make your soul grow. So do it. ~ Kurt Vonnegut. First page of my @cassart1984 handmade sketchbook. One of my new years resulotions is to practice art every single day, even when it's just a single pen line. I've been using this for my #doodlewashjanuary2020 so far so good 😁 the paper's texture is really interesting, it takes watercolours nicely. 👍 #sketchbook #arttherapy #drawing #watercolours #sketch #sketch_daily #livecreatively #creativityiscontagious #watercolor_daily

🎄 Merry Christmas/happy holidays to you all, friends. Wishing you peace, health, joy, and happiness today and in the coming year. ❤ 🥂

Love it when my journal isn't filled with all the to-dos 😁 This year I decided to make all my cards, yikes it was no joke! My right arm, neck, and shoulders are begging for some TLC now 💆‍♀️ So, relaxing Saturday for me. Hope you're all having one too 🥂 #travelersnotebook #dailysketches #dailyjournal #travelerscompany

It's Monday morning, I was up 2 hours early this morning and I have a new post on my blog... I don't know who I am anymore 😂 This is my #m7948 dress - my first ever McCall's pattern! Yes, I shamelessly copied @raystitch sample 😜 I didn't make a lot of changes to the pattern other than swapping the button and thread loop in the back with invisible zipper, and shortening the skirt and bodice. Love the fact that the bodice has no darts, perfect for cords. Full review on this pattern and fabric can be found on my blog, just follow the link in my bio ☝️ Pattern: McCall's M7948 Fabric : 8 wale cotton stretch corduroy from @raystitch #thefairstitchsews #raystitch #simplicitypatterns #sewinglove #sewistsofinstagram #isewmyownclothes #memade #makersgonnamake #sewist #instasewing #handmadewardrobe #memadeeveryday #sewingblogger #diyootd #mccallspatterns #seamstress #dressmaker #liverpoolsews
