AD – I was gifted the pattern and fabric from Deer and Doe and Minerva respectively, in exchange for an honest review! I’ll be honest, I normally steer clear of vintage styles – and the new Orchidée pattern from Deer and Doe definitely lands in that category in my books – it’s never really been […]
Another Mira dress hack! // Fibre Mood
A year later and I’m still mildly (completely) obsessed with the Mira dress pattern from Fibre Mood! Every time I make a new Mira dress I tell myself that that’ll be my last one… Aaaaaand then I make another one! Its loose relaxed fit is just too easy to make and wear! (Check out my […]
An embroidered knitted jumper // Bellish
I managed to do A LOT of knitting during lockdown. (What can I say? I had a lot of free time… 😂). This project was my second completed sweater which I actually finished knitting way back in May! It took this long for me to put the finishing touches to it though! I used the […]

My Rosa bomber jacket got picked as a finalist in the New to Me contest on The Monthly Stitch! The contest was to make something from an indie pattern company that they’d never seen from before. (There’s still 3 more contests to go if anyone else fancies joining in the fun!) I’m so pleased and […]
