Getting ready for #nationalpetday April 11th - MrA is getting his Eloise-Hoodie 🐾🤩🐾. I love the colours he’s chosen 😍 now I’m off to get hypnotised by the embroidery machine 😵‍💫🤪

My new jacket may not have any buttons yet, but that’s not stopping me from wearing it already! I’ve even written a BLOG on the #newtome way I put the sleeves in! Go and have a read if you fancy it 👍🏻🪡🧵

Keyhole buttonholes in contrast topstitching thread - easy-breezy using the sensomatic buttonhole foot - these pocket flaps are looking good! (and swipe if you want to see the finished fluffy pocket from the other day!) - I’m loving how this jacket is coming together 🤩

I’m not sure a welt pocket in this teddy-bear fabric is such a good idea this close to midnight! Maybe I’ll save it for the morning! - I’m off to have dreams about my new jacket 😴 good night Sewists 🥱 💤 🧵

What to do when you haven’t got enough fabric for two long sleeves… make a contrast! - I bought this fabric a while back for a T-shirt, but decided I wanted a long sleeve instead; the floral jersey has been lurking in my stash for some time, just waiting for the right moment 😆Stitched up in no time on the @pfaffuk #admireair5000

Here’s my tribute-to-Eloise-Hoodie out in the wild! Yes, the front’s cute, but swipe to see the back!
