As you may know, thanks to the Great British Sewing Bee 2014, I thought I'd try sewing and who would have thunk it but I LOVED it.
From never having sewn a button before, I jumped straight into the deep end and made a couple of tops and some PJ pants.
Life got in the way and with the re-launch of Great British Sewing Bee 2015, my sewing mojo flooded back. So I got the pattern of the first top I tried and decided to try again having learnt a few tips and tricks along the way.
And you know what, I think it came out OK. I can't seem to get the neckline flat and it knocks my confidence that it is not PERFECT but it's all a sewing journey.
Of course I want everything to be perfect first time round but when I saw The Paisley Bow Blouse of the Sew Simple Lottie Blouse pattern made and modelled by GBSB contestant, Amanda, my love for the blouse was enough to overcome my sewing nerves. This will be my next project!
