Any newest pair of kite pants. The mods are all the same as the pair before. But what a cracking pattern. Made 3 more that I must post. Love them all and wear them all the time. #sewing #sewingsky #sewsky #garmentsewing #sewists #memade #sewover40
Finally got some time to sew!! Made these new (to me) kite pants by the matchy matchy sewing club. Love these so much!! Made a size small but the charts indicate I should have been a medium. and increased the leg length by 2”. #sewing #sewingsky #sewsky #garmentsewing #sewists #memade #sewover40
Sewn up an Ornella top by Spaghetti western sewing and a bow bag to match by Small museum sewing. both cracking patterns. #sewing #sewingsky #sewsky #garmentsewing #sewists #memade #sewover40
Made another Ornella top by spaghetti western sewing. This time I cut up an old tee that was too small had to take liberties with the pattern but really pleased with how it turned out. #sewing #sewingsky #sewsky #garmentsewing #sewists #memade #sewover40
New top by Spaghetti Western Sewing and it’s Ornella. I am in love. Modified it slightly by lowering the neckline by 2” and the armscy by 1”. love this top and how it turned out. #sewing #sewingsky #sewsky #garmentsewing #sewists #memade #sewover40
new trews! it’s a mash up between style arc ethel and block party pants. I absolutely love them and they are incredibly comfortable #sewing #sewingsky #sewsky #garmentsewing #sewists #memade #sewover40
Completely forgot to post this dress I absolutely love it. The bodice is the holland park dress and the skirt is my beloved #zamoraskirt. love this dress #sewing #sewingsky #sewsky #garmentsewing #sewists #memade #sewover40
A new #upcycle of a vest top that’s RTW and some fabric to make this dropped waist dress. I love the outcome #sewing #sewingsky #sewsky #garmentsewing #sewists #memade #sewover40
I have also made this paddington top by the French Navy. It’s from the Peppermint magazine. It’s an absolute corker and my fave for a basic boxy crop won’t cute sleeves. #sewing #sewingsky #sewsky #garmentsewing #sewists #memade #sewover40
I made a new skirt. It’s a Zamora pattern by madswick studio. It’s a gorgeous pattern and I’m in love with this new addition. Fabric is linen from Pound fabrics. Top is RTW from Apricot. #sewing #sewingsky #sewsky #garmentsewing #sewists #memade #sewover40
new top! a simple raglan top from life sew savoury. I just cropped the sleeves and the bodice pieces and lowered my neckline. Super pleased with it. made two tops from the pattern. #sewing #sewingsky #sewsky #garmentsewing #sewists #memade #sewover40
I completely forgot to post this skirt that I have been wearing on repeat lately. It’s a #zamoraskirt by Madswick. It’s made of cream linen cotton mix and it goes with everything! #sewing #sewingsky #sewsky #garmentsewing #sewists #memade #sewover40
New #zamoraskirt by Madswick but I made it as a dress and I really love it. It’s perfect for this weather #sewing #sewingsky #sewsky #garmentsewing #sewists #memade #sewover40
new #stylearcbobpants by @stylearc.bsky.social and I absolutely love these. #sewing #sewingsky #sewsky #garmentsewing #sewists #memade #sewover40
I made new trousers and these are #blockpartypants by @fluidplusdrape.bsky.social and neighbourhood patterns (I couldn’t find the tag). These are epic go and check the pattern out. #sewing #sewingsky #sewsky #garmentsewing #sewists #memade #sewover40
A flat lay of a striped knit t shirt
Neckband was stitched down with a zigzag as well as the sleeve hem. Stripes on the armscye don’t align.

Sewing basics makes me feel like a superhero. Especially when the fabric is free and the pattern is from a borrowed magazine. Could have done a better job at pattern matching the stripes, but I don’t mind because I was so lucky with the neckband.

Another set of #stylearcbobs #stylearcbobpants and I like this pair mostly but I just worry that gingham makes it look too pyjamaish. Still super comfy

New make - @stylearc.bsky.social #stylearcbobpants and I love them. I flat felled my seams to give it that extra finish. there will be more #sewing #sewingsky #sewsky #garmentsewing #sewists #memade #sewover40
Made some new gym clothes:
This is my favorite leggings pattern, the Jalie Clara, which is basic but perfect.
The fabric is compression swimwear purchased from Mood - very stretchy and very beefy.

Had a go at a little upcycle. I completely forgot to take the before picture. But suffice to say I love the new top. #sewing #sewingsky #sewsky #garmentsewing #sewists #memade #sewover40
refashioned an old dress to make it fit me better. It was the first dress I ever made for myself and I wasn’t wearing it anymore. So I made some changes #sewing #sewingsky #sewsky #garmentsewing #sewists #memade #sewover40
