How to | Sew a Luxury Loungewear Set using the Hudson Pants and Jarrah Sweatshirt patterns…
I love a good loungewear set, it doesn’t take me long after walking in the door to change into something super cosy to sit and watch the tv in the evening, so this is one I’m really excited to share with you all. Back in autumn, over on YouTube, I made a video listing three high street looks I wanted to recreate for autumn/winter and one was a luxury loungewear set inspired by one similar to this Cashmere set from Debenhams. (My original inspiration was from The White Company but I can’t find that set anymore sadly). You can watch this video here and see what other looks I picked…

The Hayley Robe by Tammy Handmade – a sewing pattern review…
A new dressing gown, or robe whatever you’d rather call it, has been something that’s been on my ‘to sew’ list for quite some time so when Makerist kindly invited me to collaborate with them again on their most recent $2 sale campaign I of course said yes and after a scout through all of the wonderful patterns on their site, soon settled on the Hayley Robe by Tammy Handmade. I loved the look of this pattern because it didn’t look too oversized as some robe patterns can be. I also loved that there were two length options given and of course you have the option to make it in…

My Favourite Makes of Summer 2021
Summer is probably my favourite season to sew for. I feel most inspired when planning for floaty summer dresses and pretty woven tops. This year, the weather was particularly uninspiring but I still managed to make up a few things to see me through the season. Here’s a quick run down of my top three makes from summer 2021. My frill collar blouse hack…. I’m never quite sure what to title this make but I guess the title I’ve given it is a pretty good description. Early at the beginning of summer, I made a list of three things I’d like to make to add to my summer wardrobe this…
