Until Next Week, Folks...


Unfortunately I haven't written a post this week due to the fact I've been super busy and now I'm feeling pretty overtired and worn out. I'll be back next time. 

Happy sewing!

Tutorial - How to Sew a TSC Draped Wrap Skirt

I have a fantastic pattern for you today!

(Note: there is a slight revision to the pattern shown in this post as well as a walkthrough, which is in this post here. However if you want information about the slash and spread technique carry on reading!)


I've put my bralette top aside for the moment as I am waiting on bra underwires in the mail.

In this post I was intending to show you how to do the 'slash and spread' technique often used when adding fullness to a garment, but I got a little carried away and I ended up drafting a pattern. The resulting skirt was pretty simple so I thought I'd share my maths with you!

Building the Bralette - Toile One


So last week I started a new bralette making project, from an old bra with a broken underwire. If you read the last post I had just got to the point of cutting my first toile. I made this one primarily to get the fitting of the cup right, but ended up making a couple of other changes too.
