Sewing. But Not...

I promise I have been sewing. Only problem is it has been more for work purposes. I taught a bag class yesterday which was great fun but it means i've done very little sewing at home.

In order to give my sewjo a good kick up the derriere I have subscribed to Sew Today. When you do you get 2 free patterns. I chose two i'd been crushing on for a while Kwik Sew 3854 and Vogue 8774.

I'm thrilled they have started stocking Kwik Sew, I was a little bummed when they got bought out by BMV but now I get discount!
I chose this one because I love the sailor buttons and they could be easily lengthened (for my little legs) if I so wished,

The Vogue Pattern is 8774. Which looks boring but its the first pattern i've seen that is nice looking and sits on your waist. The height at the back is something I can never find with RTW so here's hoping I can get these to work for all those lovely coloured bottom weight fabrics I have lying around.
I think more patterns could be coming as the jubilee sale is on... Hmmm
How are you anyway you lovely lot? What are you sewing at the moment?

  1. Yep - bought V8774 for the height as well - and I can attest that it's super comfy to wear as well!
