Sew Gorgeous: Liberty!
http://sewgorgeousblog.blogspot.com/2013/07/liberty.html
Sew Gorgeous; good old fashioned fun - sewing workshops and parties. Sunday, 7 July 2013. While I was in London I took the opportunity to visit the Liberty of London store. I was so excited about this place that I had written it on our 'itinerary' and hubby thought it was some sort of tourist attraction (which it probably is). From the moment you turn the corner into the street, this place blows you away. It is the most amazing looking store I've ever seen. In their bathroom/homewares section you could b...

Sew Gorgeous: Vintage Vogue 2787
http://sewgorgeousblog.blogspot.com/2013/09/vintage-vogue-2787.html
Sew Gorgeous; good old fashioned fun - sewing workshops and parties. Wednesday, 18 September 2013. This dress is just so super vintage gorgeousness from top to bottom! The curved bodice/skirt seam is really flattering and gathering at the shoulders and waist give it a unique look. I made this dress for a Mother of the Groom client who fell in love with the pattern and an amazing colourful chiffon but was a little nervous about sewing it herself (with good reason! Would you sew it again? Labels: Made by Me.

Sew Gorgeous: The sewing disaster.....
http://sewgorgeousblog.blogspot.com/2013/05/the-sewing-disaster.html
Sew Gorgeous; good old fashioned fun - sewing workshops and parties. Tuesday, 28 May 2013. Have you ever made a mistake when sewing? Have you ever made two? What about when every thing you touch goes wrong? That’s the story of this dress. It started out like most relationships, we were so in tune, I was blinded by love - Thick pink stripes! Oh be still my beating heart. But somewhere along the line it went so terribly, terribly bad. As I was using the super quick (or is that super lazy? And so finally it...

Sew Gorgeous; good old fashioned fun - sewing workshops and parties. Tuesday, 21 January 2014. Burda 7252 aka this skirt Rock's…. Burda 7252 pencil skirt. This is THE most amazing skirt I’ve ever made. hands down! I don’t wear high waisted garments very often as for me it enhances areas I don’t want enhanced, but this skirts shape skims and flatters. The pleat, shaped waistband and double darts at the back gives this piece something really different. Labels: Made by Me. 10 August 2014 at 12:06. Fab versi...

Sew Gorgeous: Simplicity 2444 aka the Lady Dress
http://sewgorgeousblog.blogspot.com/2013/08/simplicity-2444-aka-lady-dress.html
Sew Gorgeous; good old fashioned fun - sewing workshops and parties. Sunday, 18 August 2013. Simplicity 2444 aka the Lady Dress. I love the cape collar– it gives it a genuine vintage feel to the dress and for some reasons makes me feel like a lady! I personally prefer a more fitted bodice than this one, I do like the point of difference of diagonal darts and they do give a cute line to the dress. The skirt has way too much fabric for me and without a petticoat the pleats hang very limply. Pattern draftin...
