HEllo and Welcome to my sewing room…..I hope you will pop by often…..it’s a busy place. ALL MY DESIGNS HAVE LITERARY, TRAVEL OR HISTORICAL THEMES PLUS LOTS OF CHIT CHAT ABOUT SEWING STUFF AND MY DRESSMAKING ENDEAVOURS.

Still waiting to move to our new home, but hopefully it won’t be long now. I confess I am longing to see my sewing machines again - it will be a tearful reunion after 6 months, I feel! Meanwhile, I have been so enamoured with Kent at this time of year. It is a riot of colour; the hedgerows are teeming with life, the country lanes are laden with daisies and queen anne’s lace and the roses are starting to bloom around doorways. It is completely beautiful and thoroughly inspiring and I can’t wait to get my new sewing room set up. The beach, the cliff tops and the country lanes are making me love my new home - it’s a happy place to be.

……When our son got posted to Houston with his work, I couldn’t believe it and so the last few weeks I have been able to spend some days with my old friend and explore her sewing room. It is always so wonderful when you are reunited after a few years with an old friend and it feels like you just instantly pick up where you left off. We decided to make a project and as quilted jackets are currently on trend, we ordered the Tamarack Jacket pattern and set to work.
