I'm looking forward to sewing this combination for autumn.
*If you make up 801 in winter fabrics, lower the armhole a little to allow for wearing over a shirt - Add a lining just by duplicating the main pieces - I will be adding this option to the pattern. I will also be working on a sew along soon.
A vest style top that can be laundered often. Like a t-shirt but smarter! An easy to make garment that suits many fabrics. Perfect at the moment in linen for our exceptionally hot summer.
This is the second time I have made up this pattern. Making it up in denim with classic jeans style top-stitching added to construction time. Well worth the effort though. I take you through every step with this sew along.
This is a fast version for those who like everything in one video. Visit the Sew Along Page for a more relaxed version with more chat and guidance.
Another great all year round sewing pattern. I have made this pattern up in a medium weight denim to start with. How can you beat denim for trying things out? It's cheap and so very wearable. I say to myself, no more denim but it's more popular than ever in the fashion press. What do I reach for first thing in the morning? Continue ......
At last I have got around to the Sew Along for my Selvedge Jeans pattern. This tutorial is relevant for all jeans sewing. I cover every step in less that 45 minutes.
See my Jeans Pattern Page for the Super Fast video and for the Selvedge Jeans pattern downloads.
This is a site for experienced sewers and also for beginners. You will find a full selection of sewing patterns. I design the sort of garments we should all have in our wardrobes. This site is not about fashion, it is about style. I hope I can help you create your own style through my classic designs.
