Penny Lane Fabrics Description
From fabric and haberdashery shop to a journey of sewing for kids with kids, Penny Lane Fabrics has evolved over the years.
Based in south Liverpool, I teach sewing classes for kids and adults, run a weekly sewing (and any other craft) club, and make imaginative play accessories for children @brownbearsews.

TIME TO CLEAN YOUR SEWING MACHINE!🎉🎉🎉
Are you running low on projects around the house as we enter week 4 of lockdown? Why not add pockets to everything you own!
I’ve made a video tutorial on how to add side seam pockets into skirts, feel free to share
... EDIT- make your pockets bigger. Measure a 5/6inch pocket opening, not the 4 inch I suggest in the video.

Sometimes I buy vintage patterns only to get them home to find they’re not in my size. Or even worse, have no pockets. If you’ve been eyeing up patterns but can’t find the perfect one to build your handmade wardrobe have no fear. We’ll be talking pattern selection, alteration, easy hacks and pockets the first week of Dressmaking Using a Pattern.
