I love interestingly cut patterns – the ones that look like weird puzzle pieces that somehow magically come together to make a shape you understand! The Pinnacle top and sweater from Papercut Patterns is one of those! The pattern, if you’re making the V neck version, is just two pattern pieces plus a neck facing. […]
The Marilla Walker Roberts Collection dungarees + a Kyoto tee hack
I’ve been planning to make the Marilla Walker Roberts Collection dungarees for a while now after seeing them here and here. They just looked so cool and comfortable! 😎 I finally got round to buying and printing the pattern (I use this site to print my PDFs – not an affiliate link. I just like […]
