Lullabee fabrics in Leicester run courses, they might have something suitable.

AnnieRose · 12 hours ago

I would be interested if anyone knows of any. I am in Northamptonshire, and I miss Michelle Pye who uised to do courses near Leicester, but retired a few years ago. I do have a relative near Evesham, so could combine a visit if I go to the Cloth...

Where are you based? Maybe there are some courses which are nearer.

AnnieRose · 17 hours ago

Thanks. I don't know anything about her - just saw the website - I don't mind who as long as they are knowledgeable and helpful. But the cost and journey is a big commitment, so I'm treying to get a feel for it.

I did a few courses when she was trading as Sew Me Something but each one had a different tutor - not Jules herself.

Hi Annie We are still working on a search facility. I haven't made this but it has been really popular, I know there are lots of people here who have made it - hopefully they'll be along to share their thoughts!

Large Scale Print Sewing Ideas.

AnnieRose · 1 day ago

I am not sure if you will have enough for a dress, depending matching the pattern; but it would make a lovely tunic. Wearting it over simple leggings / trousers would really showcase the print. And my favourite of this summer - a kimono (with the...

Hello, first of all, I thought the Forums had a search facility, but couldn't find it - so apologies if this has been covered. I am taken with this simple dress: https://thefoldline.com/products/sewing-therapy-tie-dress However, there are no...

Who Wear Their Projects?

Nolwenn · 1 day ago

Thanks for your help! I really like the thought about the non-obligation of wearing it. I have no problem for others to wear my creations, and yes, I love the process. I guess it is OK to let go a garment, even I took time and energy on it. I think...

Who Wear Their Projects?

Nolwenn · 1 day ago

Thank you for your replies and thoughts! My therapist just told me that I should have fun in my sewing process and not put my life in line for each project :D So, I guess it is something that I can work on! Less challenge for more satisfying...

Who Wear Their Projects?

Naomijane · 2 days ago

Hi Nolwenn, It took me years to begin sewing because I thought you had to wear what you sew or not sew at all. I'd wanted to learn dressmaking my entire life, not to create my own wardrobe, but because I've always been irresistibly drawn to...

Who Wear Their Projects?

AnnieRose · 2 days ago

This happens a lot - I for instance, might make a special meal for friends, then I don't want to eat it! I think when you are so close to something you have made, you see all the faults and can't see the whole. I agree with Hayley that it is...

Who Wear Their Projects?

Lucy H · 2 days ago

I can relate to this too. It's quite common that I will be very excited and sew up a new garment but then when it's finished I don't like it and it goes in the wardrobe. Usually after a few months I'll pull it out again and start to like it. I have a...

I am loving the Tullie shorts pattern by cinnamon daisy. I made a wearable toile in a light striped denim, playing with direction and I am living in them.

Hi Nolwenn, Oh no this is really tough, but I can guarantee you - you’re not alone in this one. There have been so many projects that I’ve made that have ended up unworn. This has largely improved the more I have sewn and the more I understand...

Who Wear Their Projects?

Nolwenn · 3 days ago

Hi everyone! I don't sew much for myself, but when it happens I don't wear my creation. Yet I found/designed a pattern matching my idea, researched and selected the fabric, took time on nice finishing... I think that I spent so much time and energy...

It’s been a warm one here in the northern hemisphere! What has been your standout pattern of the summer? Either a new one this year or a previous make that you’re still wearing lots this season?

Should These Be Thrown Away?

fudge1_1mellow · 6 days ago

Most of them seem to be polyester. I'll try the pulling trick. Most of the zips are okay. I think one was difficult to pull open. Might need to oil it. Not sure. Thank you for responding :)

fudge1_1mellow · 6 days ago

Hi Ariane, I'll definitely check out the garter clips. Im not sure what to do with them, but will keep in case I find inspiration for it. I'll try the baking soda. Thank you for the suggestion. A toile, I havent made one before. Thank you for...
