Happy Sunday! Today is our last day at the Stitch Festival. If you are visiting today please do make sure you swing by to say hi and to stoke some of our amazing sewing patterns! We are on stand B20 which is close to the main entrance.
On the blog this weekend: Top 15 Lingerie & Nightwear Sewing Patterns. Whether you want to learn some new sewing skills and whip up a bra and pants set or snuggle up in some cosy pyjamas, we’ve got it covered.
Now scroll down, be inspired and have a great weekend!
Sylvia from The Ravel Out made this denim dress and jacket in one and we think it’s bloody genius! She used the Ilford Jacket pattern by Friday pattern Company and she nailed it.
YES to statement sleeves! Alex from Sewrendipity hacked the Nala top from the very first issue of Fibre Mood magazine and we are digging it.
Alice from The Polka Dot Palace sewed up this Bobbi skirt from Tilly and the Buttons with some fabric she had left after making a jacket. Turns out this pattern is a great for scrap busting, and it looks great too!
This beautiful denim jacket is made by Beth from SewDIY and she used the Falda Jacket by Pattern Fantastique. We simply love everything about it!
Brittany aka Brittany J. Jones sewed up this stunning dress using Vogue 1652 and it looks amazing on her!
Patricia from PatsyPoo Makes says she’s obsessed with her new Winslow Culottes from Helen’s Closet and we can see why! Head over to Patricia’s blog to see how she styled her culottes in three different ways.
Oh how we adore Anna’s aka Blogless Anna StyleArc’s Adeline top! And that fabulous fabric has got everything to do with that..
The topstitching on these Sew House Seven Burnside Bibs are ON POINT! Vicky from Sewstainability did such a great job making these, be sure to check out her blog for more photos.
Amy from Amy Nicole Studio needed a jacket for work and she created this amazing jacket using the Thayer pattern by Grainline Studio. She also added a removable lining using an old flannel shirt, so cosy!
We absolutely adore this whole outfit! Mel at @stitch_make_bake wrote a pattern review on our website about her Tilly and the Buttons Ness skirt and the verdict is out: it’s a winner!
Laura @laurapop90 is looking as cute as a button in her brand new Megan Nielsen Sudley dress! The fabric, that collar, the keyhole cut out with ties, we love it all!

Oh how we love an iconic Liberty print! These pretty cotton lawns are from Fabrics Galore and they have so many gorgeous Liberty prints it’s hard to choose a favourite!
This gorgeous viscose jersey from Lulou Designs is really unusual with a large floral border print. Perfect if you want to make something comfortable and stand out the same time!
You really can’t go wrong with this black and white polka dot from Pin & Sew! It’s a classic.
We. Are. In. LOVE with this beauty from Cloth & Candy. Isn’t the print and this colour combination amazing?!?
This cotton linen fabric from The Draper's Daughter made it to our wish list. The abstract monochrome print is designed by Anna Graham for Kaufman and it’s amazing.
Beautiful colours, embroidery, pretty leaves, what more could you wish for? This Broderie Anglaise from Lamazi Fabrics has got it all…
I guess we just have a thing for monochrome gingham and checked fabric? These fabrics from Sew Me Sunshine immediately caught our eye amongst all other new fabrics.
These pretty spool holders from Beyond Measure are made of Hasami Ware and hold pins, needles, and any other small metal objects you want to keep at hand whilst sewing.
This unisex parka jacket is designed by Mimi G for Simplicity and we are 100% digging it! It would make the prefect coat for warmer weather (which will hopefully arrive in the UK real soon)!
