#bpsewvember Day 28, 29 and 30

Day 28: UFO. I currently only have one UFO which only really needs about 4 buttons sewing on, but black buttons are quite dull so here's a photo I took on a disposable camera in Paris in October of some beautiful street art Day 29: Superpower. I think my superpower is self-restraint in fabric shops …

Day 25: Chore. Tidying up is definitely the worst part of sewing (and the reason why I haven't done any for a few weeks) and I put it off off as long as possible 😂 my plan for tomorrow is to tidy up, hoover the button rug (thread magnet fyi) and then finish 2 projects …

Day 22: Blue/green. I always love blue but this year I've found myself drawn to green a lot. The green fleck jersey on the left is gorgeous, I picked it up at Sew Brum from Guthrie and Ghani and the khaki mossy green, while awful to photograph (it's a lot less 'pond' coloured IRL) is …

Day 19: Neutral I don't/can't wear traditional neutrals because they make me look like I'm really unwell (pale for life yo) so instead I'm sharing this beautiful machine I saw in a shop window in Paris last month 😍 Day 20: Style stalk. I love a lot of what Taylor Swift wears and would happily …

Day 13: Selfless sew. I don't do a lot of selfless sewing although I feel like I probably should do more! This is a sneak peek of a long since finished Negroni shirt I made for Hayden. I think it's my only selfless sew this year?! It will be on the blog... at some point... …

Day 7: Playing favourites I don't really have any particular favourite fabrics or patterns, or at least nothing I could pinpoint as 'the one' so this photo is a bit of a vague interpretation 😂 my favourite part of autumn is the leaves changing colour, and a favourite Liberty print is Manuela - I love …

#bpsewvember Day 4, 5 and 6

Day 4: Fun One of the fun things about sewing for me is that it's a truly international skill - all around the world are people just like me sitting making wonderful things! When I go abroad I've started trying to pick up so fabric or trim from a local shop so when I get …

#bpsewvember Day 1, 2 and 3

Day 1: Hi there! I'm Jenny 😀 I've been sewing for about a million years and trained as a costume maker. I like running, cats, travelling and quizzes. Day 2:Wackiest pattern  Like many other people, I'm interpreting today's prompt quite loosely as I don't really have any wacky patterns to show you (I have one …

The lovely Amanda from Bimble and Pimble has organised #bpsewvember for another year and I've literally decided in the last 5 minutes I'm going to take part! I'm going to post daily on instagram (also in the sidebar) but will group a few prompts together for posts here so you don't get completely bombarded haha! If …

#bpsewvember Day 30 – Next up

#bpsewvember Day 30 - Next up. When I've finished my peacoat for the #v1467sewalong (just buying buttons and sewing buttonholes to go) I want to make the Sewaholic Granville shirt in this salmon and blue flannel. Also just wanted to say thank you to everyone who's liked and commented on my posts both here and …
