A puffy frilly shirt and a SCARF!

Hello fellow sewers!


It's me, on repeat with these puff-sleeved shirts! I'm really enjoying making different iterations of a shirt whose basic fit makes me feel really good. Maybe I've gone too far with this version, I'm not sure! Very little to add to the last three, apart from the ruffles on the collar, which I almost enjoyed making, and am proud of the result of!


More lovely Merchant & Mills cotton, such a lovely feel to this fabric. 
And more buttons from Textile Garden!


And two pictures of the scarf I finished this week! My sewing feed was getting full of wonderful enviable knitted content, and I was suddenly struck down with a severe case of FOMOK. After some practise and helpful lessons from Sheep & Stitch, I spent a soothing week or so knitting up this scarf, and I absolutely LOVE it - it's the warmest scarf I've ever owned. But I'm not in love with knitting, and still feel massively intimidated by the idea of anything more complicated, much as I love the idea of wearing my own sweaters... will see!



Ready for the Brighton seafront!!
