So a few weeks ago I started searching for a great t-shirt pattern – one that suits and fits my body shape in a style that I liked. The second t-shirt pattern I chose was the Equinox tee from Pattern Fantastique. I’ve never used this indie company before but the photos looked good and I’d […]
The Adrift dress by Papercut Patterns
Have you ever had that moment when there’s a pattern you’ve seen and passed by maybe ten times but on that eleventh sighting you decide that that’s the pattern you just can’t live without? It’s just happened to me with the Adrift dress from Papercut patterns! The Adrift dress is part of the Ahoy collection […]
Another Dress 47 hack- or should I say Jumpsuit 47?
So you all know how much love I have for the Dress 47 pattern from Cali Faye. (I went on and on about it here if you missed it). It’s a really cute summer dress with a tie front detail. I made mine out of a denim blue linen with a buttoned skirt pattern hack. […]

Monthly Roundup #5
Another fun filled month has passed us by! Here’s what I’ve been up to in June! In the news… – I went to a blogging conference! Blogtacular + the colour walk fringe event the day before was a great place to meet like minded individuals. It was the first time I’d attended a conference that […]
A button front pattern hack of Dress 47
I love that this pattern is just called Dress 47. It’s weird and awesome at the same time! So this new pattern is from Cali Faye. To be honest I’ve not made many things from this company in the past – mostly because they’re often not really my style and I find that their “fit […]
