Catching the last rays of sun in the garden, perfect time to break out the #holidaytrinity co-ord (but I couldn’t find the hat!) - I made a couple of these back in 2019 when they weren’t fashionable 😂 and have had a surprising amount of wear out of them ☀️

I’m calling these #denimwaders as the design is based on fishing waders and overalls. Lots of topstitching involved 😅! All the fabric and notions bought with a £50 voucher gifted by @fabriczone_uk 🙏 (except for the buckles & straps as I originally planned to make jeans!) It’s the perfect weight denim, not too light not too heavy 😁 and with the right threads and needles topstitching was a dream! I’m going to have a hard time taking these off 😍🤩🤣

I’m in #TopstitchingHeaven! I had to make a ‘little’ size adjustment and it’s given me all this topstitching joy! - a couple of wobbles here and there but seem to have the right mix of needle/ thread/ fabric & machine!

Time to get on with my denim project, it was going to be jeans but I’ve changed my mind - at least I’ve decided on the topstitch thread (although I’ve chosen two 😅) This is going to be a top stitch marathon!

I am living in these corduroys 😅 literally: washed & worn, washed & worn! Perfect for the hot-but-not-too-hot British summer (Eloise agrees 🐾) *Fabric & pattern both gifted from @fibremood 🙏

A beautiful day in the sunshine and the perfect opportunity to wear my new shirt - the fabric was a tablecloth bought from a car boot sale long ago, I’m not sure I even have enough left to make Eloise a bandana! It’s the #chemiselelegant from @patronslesbg - I shortened the sleeves and made a grandad collar - my new favourite shirt! And Eloise is in her micro-towelling cool-cape!
