How to begin?

At the beginning I suppose!! Professionally I am a freelance Garment Technologist, Dressmaker, Tailor and all round handy crafty home made person! I also work part time as a bespoke tailoring consultant at Austin Reed the famous gentleman’s store. I have tried my hand at all sorts of craft  projects at home from making cushions, curtains, decoupage boxes, restoring furniture, wall art, painting… the list is quite long!!

I am a professionally trained sewing machinist, making anything from fabric is my speciality, but I often find I am making things up as I go along, so thought I would share my tips and advice as well as ideas for mini projects to make at home that, I hope, anyone can follow.

I also plan to share details of my collections and projects, both professional and personal! Hopefully this should turn into an archive of work that I can look back on and draw upon for the future, and share with anyone who is interested as well.

I tend to be a bit disorganised so rather expect this blog to follow that pattern too, I already have posts on vintage dress patterns, a decoupage box and some shower curtains planned, which should be online in the next few days.
