This is a wonderful read. You may not be thinking of making your own wedding dress but it is so lovely to see other people doing so and achieving something really special. 😍

Did you know that you can now buy 100% recycled polyester thread from my recommended thread brand Gutermann? The colours are limited but there is still plenty to choose from. The more people use them, then the colour range will expand. This is one switch that we could all easily make. Here is a great review of the performance of these threads. All of the threads and thread packs are available at Jaycotts.

There are still three places available on this class next Wednesday evening. I have some spare feet for those who don’t have a darning/ embroidery foot. I provide all the materials for the evening and you get to take your ‘make’ home. All you need to do is bring your sewing machine. It is lots of fun and you can use your skills to make cards, cushions and much more! You don’t have to be an experienced sewist either. Just message me to book 😀

Is recycled thread the future? Gutermann are producing a recycled thread (plastic bottles would you believe). Here’s a great post about how good it is.

I only have 3 spaces available now for this really fun class. We will be making Easter or Mother’s Day themed designs which you can also stitch onto cards! All materials included. You need to bring your machine and a darning/quilting foot and also the plate that goes over your feed dogs if there isn’t a switch to drop them. All the materials are provided by me 😁

Has anybody been watching this show? For those that know me you will not be surprised to know that I love period costumes and, apart from teaching all you lovely people the joy of sewing, this would be my dream job!
