    Made By Jack’s Mum Heyday Dungarees Hack

    April 25, 2019 /

    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!

    March 28, 2019 /

    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. That’s right, Emily from In the Folds creates “free” patterns in conjunction with Peppermint Magazine 'cause she’s a saint with style.

I’ve been considering starting a blog for years and what better way to begin this new endeavor than with a super colorful dress! Using blogs as a resource for learning my sewing craft has been invaluable to me. I really hope this can be a space to offer the same kind of support to others.
