WHAT I'VE BEEN MAKING
With Christmas on the horizon, I wanted a dress that could do it all: dressed up with tights and boots for a festive party, cosy and comfortable for Christmas Day, or paired with my big snow boots for a wintry walk (fingers crossed for snow!).
The Dahlia Dungaree and Pinafore Dress from Sewillow was the perfect choice. I made the pinafore version in Fableism’s Queen of Hearts in Maraschino, from Minerva. The woven jacquard has a lovely texture, and the red gingham with hearts feels playful and festive without being too obviously “Christmassy”, so it can be worn well beyond December.
I’m so pleased with how it turned out! Pattern links below…

Chunky Malva Cardigan
I’m not an experienced knitter, I prefer to crochet however I seen this pattern and just had to try it. I definitely made mistakes, the sell did her best to help me and the video was very helpful!! The measurements are definitely accurate! I did have a difficult time with the Kitchener stitch but it was my first time. Saying that, it is a fun project and was a bit challenging for me being inexperienced!
Omilla Hooded Quilt Coat
Pattern was easy to print and modify to my size. I quilted pattern pieces before sewing. Once my pieces were finished, the jacket came together very quickly! Will be making more!
