Cuuuuuuute!! Thanks @material_girl_laura these are perfect! 😍😍 Terracotta and Ochre Painted Stripes Jersey

Quite stunned by @burda_style today. Bought their magazine for the first time today because I’d seen this beautiful dress on someone else’s post and fell in love with it. . Get it home and start looking at the pattern and instructions etc. They’ve ONLY made the pattern in petite sizes. No regular or tall size range for it. Great for petite ladies, I’ll give you that. BUT THIS MODEL IS NOT PETITE!! She’s in the entire magazine representing clothes for all sizes. So basically they’ve made this dress big enough for her, but haven’t bothered to make that size available. . And here’s me thinking it’s only ready to wear that make that mistake!! #wtf 😤

How stunning are these steampunk boots - just bought them from @wakers_quakers . Feeling like doing a costume now, in time for ComicCon. Maybe in October. 😍😍😍 I love them so much!

Look what I found in my little pile of goodies from the sewing weekender last August! Went straight into my #clarecoat 😊😊🥰 @closetcase.patterns . Also swipe to see some embellishments I’ve added to the collar 🥰 @pinkcoatclub @craftypinupshop . #okenoughnow 😆

Hi guys. I’ve finally written up my blog on the #clarecoat - what challenges I faced and how I got on. #linkinbio

Thanks for the story responses ladies. If you know of any more, then do get in touch. But I’m going to look at Orange, Madalynne and the Cloth Habit pattern called Watson, which seems to have a nice amount of structure to it. I’ve got an uneven bust so want to have support and coverage so I’m not falling out one side or under supported. @joannejose1998 let’s chat too, thanks lovely. Hope your Dad’s doing well xxx
