    I have also shared a full list of all the sewing bloggers taking part this year on the screen - there are over 60 to choose from and inspire you 🥰

    The two items I have shared today are :
    1. A self drafted skirt inspired by a purchased skirt recently, in a jersey fabric, keep your eye’s posted on how I replicate this and draft a pattern to fit me perfectly.
    2. A Flat Fronted Skirt in woven fabric - inspired by the lovely Alice who is The Polka Dot Palace on instagram, and has written a blog post with step by step instructions on how to achieve this, which you can find here :

    Never apologise for buying rtw. Buying rtw can be an addition to your wardrobe in the same way as making your own is, so just enjoy. I love the skirt patterns you've chosen and your fabric choices. With the skirt your cloning is it cut on the straight grain or bias.If you'd rather leave that information for when you make the skirt vlog don't worry as I will be watching it. It is great that your finding a positive way to push through your sewing blip ❤

      Thanks so much Maureen. I’m hoping it will ignite my sewing for sure - combined with going to the stitch festival this weekend!
      I believe it’s cut in the straight as its jersey. Thank you can’t wait to make it xx
