Today is Tiffany’s birthday, and I was informed this time last week that she wanted to make a cape for the occasion. A few days of pattern-making, designing, and sewing later, and I came up with this: Isn’t it just the cutest? Though it is just plain navy on the front, the inside is lined…… Continue reading Tiffany’s Birthday

Quick Pants
Tiffany wanted a pair of winter pants that were ‘flowy’, unlike her orange pants and not elasticated at the ankle, so I found this fabric, and two days later: Tiffany likes her pants wide-legged, so that they are. They also have the usual pockets, and close with a flap in the back, which totally wasn’t…… Continue reading Quick Pants
Dye Experiments
Tiffany’s been experimenting with fabric dye recently…. ….and some of her first experiments yielded this design: The hints of green look quite nice with purple, I think! This photoshoot was incredibly windy – after this we tried shooting with her cardigan on…. ….but then she nearly blew over, so we had to call it short!…… Continue reading Dye Experiments
Happy Easter!
Remember last year, when Sarah painted eggs for her friends? Well, they were so popular, that this year, she’s organised an egg-painting party!

The neckline has a facing, which I do like. It doesn’t have pockets (I know!), but that’s because this fabric is very hard to work…… Continue reading Artistic Liberties
Back to Basics
I wanted to experiment with the ‘jersey slip-on top’ thing, and try them without ribbon straps. So, Tiffany got a few more basic tops to go with anything. These are both v-necked, and ridiculously quick to make. They both have a rounded edge at the back, which could be turned to the front if needed.…… Continue reading Back to Basics
Orange Stripes
I first saw Tiffany’s new pants in an op shop, and I instantly knew that she’d love them. They had a tied or elasticated waist, which I’ve replicated as best as I can in miniature. The original had the stripes printed onto the fabric, which I recreated with pieces of ribbon sewn onto the fabric…… Continue reading Orange Stripes
