Wardrobe by Me Cocoon Coat

This oversized coat is fully lined and features a shawl collar, raglan sleeves, and front patch pockets. A curved back yoke seam enhances the architectural shape. The coat closes with two buttons at the front. It will last you a long time.

Chalk and Notch Rivi Blouse and Dress

Rivi is an oversized woven button-up blouse and dress with a dropped armhole. The garment is finished with French seams. There are seam lines on the bodice and back yoke that allow for playing with stripe direction. 

Bobbins and Buttons Susy Pyjamas

This relaxed, easy-fitting set has been designed as an ideal first garment project. The straight leg trousers have an elasticated waist and in-seam pockets, and can be made full length or as shorts. The pull-on top has a faced neckline and optional patch pocket, and can be made with or without sleeves.

Itch to Stitch Elmstead Pinafore

The Elmstead Pinafore is a versatile wardrobe staple designed to be worn over a shirt, turtleneck or tee. Its classic silhouette works beautifully in a variety of fabrics: corduroy for a traditional look, denim for casual wear, or wool for a slightly dressier style. It has front and back princess seams, cup size options, and an optional waist strap at the back for adjustable shaping. 

Tammy Handmade Romy Top and Dress

Romy is a knit pattern with a relaxed silhouette. The pattern includes two rounded neckline options and three sleeve options. The neckline is neatly finished with a neckband, and the skirt of the mini or midi-length dress has a gentle A-line shape. Designed to skim your body, not cling, Romy gives you a comfy fit you'll reach for every day. With so many variations to sew, you can fill your wardrobe with pieces you truly love from just this one pattern. 

Coralie Bijasson Noxie Jacket

 Noxie is a fully lined, close-fitting jacket. Chest and back seams shape the bodice, while the shoulder yoke adds structure and character. Noxie can be sewn with or without a collar, and the long sleeves can be simply hemmed or finished with cuffs.

Coralie Bijasson Nine Jacket

This double-breasted jacket features a slightly flared silhouette, round neckline, and raglan sleeves. It has pockets hidden in the side seams and a box pleat at the back. 

Coralie Bijasson Napoli Jacket

With its distinctive collar, zip closure, and welt pockets, this biker jacket strikes the perfect balance between modern edge and timeless chic. A true wardrobe essential, it instantly elevates any outfit. 

Selvedge Magazine Issue 129 Repeat

This issue spotlights makers from around the world who focus on the power of repeated gesture, including Dahyeon Yoo from South Korea, London-based Sayan Chanda and Richard McVetis, and the duo Doyel Joshi and Neil Ghose Balser of HowAreYouFeeling Studio. Together, their work embodies the Aristotelian idea that the whole is greater than the sum of its parts.

This upbeat label pairs cobalt blue lettering with hot pink, orange, and yellow for a look that’s bright, retro, and joyfully extra.

Little Rosy Cheeks 'Handmade Velvet (Red)' Labels

Add a bit of luxury to your handmade garments with this red velvet label. The rich texture of velvet exudes both softness and elegance, making it perfect for pieces that are either cosy or glam.
