Corduroy Success

 


I finally made a pair of trousers that really fits, on the fifth attempt! Super chuffed with these cords, in dark red, one of my favourite winter colours. This is a new sewing pattern and really works with three different body shape options.

Next up, christmas pyjama trousers, classic jeans and a red jersey dress.

Boring Views: by Denburn Car Park

 


A messy, semi abstract acrylic of the old hospital by the car park. I liked the red chimney.

Even my indoor plants, like this begonia, are taking on autumn colours.

Favourite Sewing

 


My favourite sewing and sewing patterns reflect things I wear and like to make. The easiest is the pyjama trousers, top middle, with a tricky trouser project I am working on top right. My favourite comfy jersey dresses appear at the bottom with a useful drapey cardi. I have made all these several times in different fabrics and they always work.

Pop Art Hope

 


An experimental stencil/paint of hopeful hearts while I was anxiously awaiting the US election result.
