Must-see Review Of The Gorgeous Emmie Seamwork Blouse!
Today I am wearing my new make the Emmie blouse by Seamwork in a size 16. I made it in a linen check.
Next time I would lengthen by 1" as it is a little short, but wearable!

Join Me For A Sunday Sew-along With The Madrid Tote! #Seamwork
Переглядів 134Місяць тому
Sew along of how I sewed together the Madrid tote by #Seamwork. I used leather for the bottom and a cotton duck for the top of the bag. I used a bright red spotted cotton fabric for the lining. I got my handles and hardware from Temu. It was a bit of a challenge to sew with leather, but the bag turned out how I wanted it too. I really love the colour combinations, so bright and happy! Enjoy! li...

Today I'm unboxing and reviewing the Oliso smart iron for sewing and it's unique features.

    Thanks for doing a video on this! Im just starting to sew, and its super helpful to see these kinds of videos. Can I ask with this pattern it says its in Imperial so converting to Metric for Aussie sizes is usually 2 different? ie if I wanted to sew an AU18, Id select the size 14 in this pattern pack?

    Hi Fiona. Thanks for the lovely sew along. It looks easy when you do it. The silk blouse looks lovely. I hope you have more time in the sewing room during the school holidays. I will have less as I have grandkids but I treasure that that they still want to stay with us. I can sew lots when they are home again. Happy sewing😊

    Hi, you were so correct about teaming up the red pants with a leopard print. This looks stunning. I made myself a pair of red pants a few years ago and binned them as I couldn’t match them with anything in my wardrobe. Your wardrobe planning course looks like it will be a lot of fun and I am so impressed with the folder you set up. I hope your ankle heals up quickly. 🌸

    I had a very similar holiday recently on the gold coast, fabric frenzy included, I wasnt able to get to ikea though. Loved your haul of fabric and pleased you had a great time shopping. For any one visiting the sunshine coast Eumundi markets are a must and worth the travel time it takes to get there.

    • @NZStitchBird-zy6eg

    Hi, a most enjoyable video 😊. You have planned a versatile and functional travel wardrobe. I thought all of the pieces went so well together and will be fun to wear. Your choice of fabric is lovely too. What fabric did you use for the orange long sleeve top and where did you buy it from? I just loved the way it draped. I hope you have a wonderful time. 🌸

    Hi Fiona. I hope you manage to find time to complete all your plans. The elastic waist skirt sounds great. I love elastic in waistbands as they expand when you expand.
