Pattern Testing the Flynn Jacket by In The Folds
I'm sharing my review of the new Flynn Jacket pattern by In The Folds today! I had the opportunity to test the sleeveless version of the pattern for Emily and believe this would be a wonderful addition to anyone's wardrobe. Flynn is unique, functional, and feels really good to wear. It's an unlined jacket or vest with beautiful insides. All of the inner seams are bound with bias tape. The curved style lines make for a really beautiful finished piece.

Made By Jack’s Mum Heyday Dungarees Hack
This Heyday Dungarees hack was inspired by the work of a small indie clothing designer named Katie Beaton of Beaton Linen. I love their minimalist aesthetic and focus on sustainability. If I could afford to support them I would, but that's not an option for me so of course I did the next best thing. I made something that looks similar!

Pinnacle Hearts Peppermint
The new and free Peppermint Wrap Skirt Peppermint Magazine has released yet another amazing "free" pattern. You can expect all of the skilled drafting and precise instruction that go hand-in-hand with In the Folds patterns because that’s who drafts them.
