DIY Dressmaking with Emily ❤️
[Sponsored] I’ve got a lovely little giveaway for your guys to kick off April! Creative Industry has offered up one of their “Sewing Bundles” for me to give away. It consists of a 10 metre roll of Patterntrace (their version of Swedish Tracing Paper) and a Maker’s Workbook to journal all your sewing deeds! If […]
The Spring Knitting and Stitching Show is coming up fast and I’ve got 5 pairs of tickets to give away! This is the show held at Olympia in West London every year (the autumn show is held at Alexandra Palace). It’s always a fun day out! Just make sure you come with an empty shopping […]
I’ve got something very special in store for you guys today! It’s a fabric giveaway! (What better way to start off the new year than with some free fabric, eh?) So towards the end of last year I did a little bit of blogging for fabric.com and made these… One fabric three ways! I used […]
When I was approached by TÉLIO a couple of months ago I was mostly a bit baffled. I’d never heard of the company before and wondered what they wanted to bring to the home sewing market. After a little researching I found out TÉLIO was a huge fabric wholesaler in North America. They import and […]
So one of my besties is getting married tomorrow! It’s all very exciting! I’ve made our bridesmaids outfits – 4 Martine jumpsuits out of a gorgeous Stoff & Stil navy floral viscose. (I’ll be showing them off on here soon!). I managed to get loads of leftover fabric after I’d finished making them – either […]
London’s Knitting and Stitching Show is coming up and I’ve got 5 pairs of tickets to give away! The Knitting and Stitching Show is being held at Olympia London from Thursday 1st to Sunday 4th March. That’s a whole weekend of crafting goodness! I went to this event last year with Rumana (from The Little […]
It’s my birthday on Saturday and to honour that I’ve got a little giveaway for you lovely folks – it’s a copy of Girl With A Sewing Machine by Jenniffer Taylor! This might be especially suited for any of you who are attending The new Great British Sewing Bee Live show from the 21st-24th (it […]
So I’ve been working on learning how to create PDF patterns lately. I’ve been dipping in and out of Lauren Dahl’s Pattern Workshop course which has spawned tons of indie pattern designers already. Who’s knows, maybe I’ll be next! Hehe! I’ve gotten as far as digitising hand drafted ones – which isn’t very far let me […]
Following Fashion Revolution week back in April, I think we’re all that little bit more conscious about the supply chain within the fashion industry which can be a scary place. Buying ethically and supporting companies that do take the time and effort to ensure the welfare of their workers and their environmental impact is something […]
I made some monthly sewing plan printables! One of my sisters kindly made all the little illustrations for me (thanks!) so I could put these together. I had planned to be organised and make them up for January but life got in the way (as usual…). But no matter, they’re here now and I wanted […]
