THE EDIT: NEW SEWING PATTERN RELEASES - 24 NOVEMBER

It’s time for your weekly dose of The Edit: New Sewing Pattern Releases. This blog and vlog highlight some of the new arrivals to hit the shop this week. Kate natters about all the details you need to know so if you’re a pattern nerd like we are, this is for you!

This week I am sharing a brand new innovation from Jenerates that we will never be without, six new woven labels for the sweary sewists of the group and two autumnal patterns that make a great outfit.

Puff and Pencil Buckle Skirt: Kate spotted this style on the high street when she was collating the trends for the season, so it's very of the moment. This long, low-waisted wrap skirt has a wide waistband and asymmetric front overlap. It closes with a hidden snap button on one side and two buckles on the other making it a great project for confident beginners and beyond.

True Bias Brynn Cardigan: Sister to the popular Marlo Cardigan, Brynn is giving us a completely different shape to add to our handmade wardrobe. The fitted shape makes Brynn the main event and less of a layering piece which could be really useful during party season. There are loads of ways to make your cardigan - as a vest, dress, with short or long sleeves - you can really play around with this pattern.

Kylie & the Machine Sweary Labels: Excuse the swears... it's not me! The ever popular sweary sewist labels are back, with 6 designs this time. Of these potty mouth labels make you chuckle, why not sew one if your handmade garment?

Kylie & the Machine Label Glue Stick: Back in stock! Tired of pins getting in the way (or breaking) when you're sewing in labels? This soft and smooth glue holds better than pins and allows you to sew straight over your label. It won't gum up your machine, dries clear and washes away in the washing machine.

Jenerates Flex Hemmer: We got to play with this clever new tool from Jenerates at the Knitting and Stitching show, so I promise you it is a very useful piece of kit. This hemmer not only withstands heat, it will curve in either direction so you can press your hems with ease. As someone who loves pressing, but hates pressing curves, I am very excited to have one in my sewing room.

You can use the holes to mark the position of the hemmer with a chalk pencil or iron-off pen. Pinning through the holes will keep the hemmer in place while you press.

That's all folks. Stay warm and keep on sewing. See you next week!
