I'm so over the moon! @fabricguysonline asked me to be a brand ambassador and my first fabric has just arrived, beautifully packaged too. Can't wait to share my first project 😉 Have you checked out their fabrics? 😮😍😍 #fabriclovers #thefairstitchsews #sewistsofinstagram #fabricguysonlineambassador #sewinglove #handmadewardrobe #memade #isewmyownclothes #fabricaddict

Exciting project ahead 😍 Abraham Moon 100% wool in raspberry colour, taffeta lining in dusky rose, to be turned into a @jenniferlaurenhandmade #ivypinafore can't wait to wear it!!! I'm a bit worried about the fit around the bust though. The pattern was drafted for a D cup, it's going to be quite a significant SBA for me. 🤞 Have you sewn this pattern? SBA? Thoughts, experience, opinions please. I could not find any blog posts etc on SBA for this pattern. #sewistsofinstagram #sewinglove #indiepatterns #indiesewing #memadewardrobe #dressmaker #sewersofinstagram #sewist #instasewing #handmadewardrobe #memadeeveryday #isew #isewmyownclothes

The only unfinished #inktober2019 piece in my sketchbook. Here's the story behind day 19. I have been taking acrylic painting class with the amazing @sarah_jane_artwork (she's really an amazing tutor, if she happens to have a class/workshop near you, I'd recommend taking it, sooo good!) And now we're doing our second master study and it's Georgia O'Keeffe!!! I always loved her paintings and so got all too excited about this that I had to incorporate it into my #inktober 😁 I am happy to report that I managed all 31 days this year 🥳 it was hard at times, but hey it's supposed to be a challenge, right? I shared my inktober story on the blog today and a few more pages from my sketchbook, head over there if you want to see more. I know most of you follow me for sewing content, don't worry they're coming 👍 Have a wonderful weekend, lovely peeps 🍻 #sketchbook #inking #dailysketch #drawingchallenge #arttherapy #valuestudy #masterstudy

Finally back to sewing and blogging, pheeew. Needed to take a little break to focus on other things - Inktober being one of them. First attempt to get my sewjo back is with this fun and quick project - instant gratification, that's the trick, right? 😉 So, this is the #gemmatank from @madebyrae Link to full post in my bio ☝️☝️ Have a wonderful weekend, peeps ☕ #thefairstitchsews #sewingblog #indiepatterns #indiesewing #memadeeveryday #memadewardrobe #sewistsofinstagram #sewinglove #sewingblogger #makersgonnamake #sewist #instasewing #handmadewardrobe #slowsewing #slowfashion #memade #isewmyownclothes

Getting my sewjo back with these yellow linen #pietrapants 😍 (my fourth pair!! Guess I really love this pattern, huh?)
