A few makes from the archive!

Since I started the blog I seem to have been extremely prolific! This is just a fraction of the things I’ve made in the last 5 years or so, I’m afraid I kind of forgot about this page so I haven’t added anything new in ages! You’re better off looking at the pattern reviews page or my Instagram account if you want more pictures and up-to-date info.

Dior New Look-inspired evening dress…I love it!

version 2 of the Zoe by Simple Sew patterns

Burda 6874 for Mr Y, he’s still wearing it 3 years later so he must like it!

Grainline Alder dress, I also made a long-sleeved version

a largely self-drafted 60’s style top-I managed to shrink it beyond recognition

Beautiful bridesmaids

Farrow dress by Grainline Studio

The second Farrow I made, this time as a review in Sew Now magazine issue 5

who’s that over there? Oh, it’s Zierstoff ‘Sue’

This is Zierstoff too, a Sophie bolero this time.

Swiss Dot ‘Holiday’ shirt by The Maker’s Atelier.

And a Liberty cotton voile version with machine embroidery detailing

This was a Collette Moneta which I added a funnel collar to along with a fake zip, I still wear this in the winter.

This was a gathered skirt I drafted for some classes I was teaching at the time, it wasn’t for me so I never wore it.
