Sew Reporter – 24 January
Hi team, happy Sunday 🙂 We hope you’re looking forward to having a scroll through today’s Sew Reporter! Do you have a cuppa and a biscuit at the ready? We have gathered some pretty amazing looks for you and we hope you enjoy them. Have a great Sunday and (hopefully) happy sewing!
We are in love with this beautiful StyleArc Hope Woven Dress that Anna aka Blogless Anna made. We highly recommend heading over to her blog to see more photos. The dress, and Anna’s surroundings, look stunning!
Amy from Amy Nicole Studio made the Friday Pattern Company Wilder Gown in a chiffon, and it turned out to be the dreamiest of dream dresses!
Mimi G is once again slaying it! This time she made a pleather dress using McCall’s 8139. The details on this are amazing, and the stitching is impeccable.
We were already excited to see the brand new design from Friday Pattern Company; the Heather Blazer being released, but after seeing this version from Mary at Sablecraft we are obsessed!
Katie Kortman aka the colour queen is here to inject your screen with some happy colours! She made the Nerida Hansen Shift Dress in her own fabrics and it looks awesome.
We can only wish that one day we would look as cool as Raven (at Raven Maureen) in her new faux fur leopard print McCall’s 7847 coat…
Oh my! This dress! Katie from What Katie Sews hacked the Friday Pattern Co Sagebrush Top into a dress and sewed it up in the most fabulous fabric. We’re in love.
This orange jumper and (self drafted) green skirt are a match made in heaven. Robyn at Styles In Seams is making 1 garment a week in 2021 and this is her first finished project. What a way to start the challenge!
Amanda at Bimble & Pimble wanted to add some colour to her wardrobe and she certainly succeeded by making this fabulous Paper Theory Patterns Zadie Jumpsuit.
We are all about snuggly sweatshirts at the moment and we would really love one as pretty as this Style Arc Verity Knit Top. It fits Janet @sewsmittenkitten so well, and of course, we are also totally digging the awesome leopard print!
We love the wide range of pattern designs that were released this week. Which one is made for you? A fabulous dress? Or comfy joggers and jersey garments? Browse all the latest patterns here.
