Simple, beautiful patterns for free-spirited makers. Sew | Knit | Crochet

Something's been blooming in the sewing room… Something's been blooming in the sewing room… 

This new dress pattern has been quietly taking shape behind the scenes — developed with quilters in mind, and especially for quilting cottons. Designed to hug, flatter and drape beautifully.

There’s no zips, no fussy fasteners — just lots of piecing like a patchwork quilt, with a satisfying construction, with ties and drawstrings that shapes to you. If you’re someone who feels at home among fat quarters and patchwork palettes, this might just be your next slow sew.

I’ve kept this test round small and close — working directly with a couple of trusted sewists while I finalise the finishing touches. No call-out this time, just quiet progress and a pattern nearly ready to meet the world. It's called the Patch & Bloom Dress.

It’s a fabric-happy project — you’ll need around 1 metre of each fabric tone — but the result? A wearable patchwork piece that feels as thoughtful as the making and as long lasting as your family heirloom quilt.

Coming soon.
Hope you love it as much as I do.

Quiet life, busy mind. Ideas brewing and stewing. Quiet life, busy mind. Ideas brewing and stewing. Much to come: a new pattern is being tested ready for release in a few weeks, another under way. 

But first, a pause. I'm off on holiday for just a few days. Leaning into the warmth of summer and stillness. 

Here's to an algorithm-tether-free summer for us all. 🌞 Remember - social media is a dangling carrot. Don't miss out on real life.

I love my sewing machine so much I made a whole vi I love my sewing machine so much I made a whole video about it!
After a lovely comment asking how to thread and use the New Home 605, I realized it deserved its own moment in the spotlight.

This vintage beauty has helped me sew everything from aprons to my wedding dress (!!) and honestly—it stitches better than any modern machine I’ve used.

💻 Full tutorial now live on YouTube! I show how to thread it, wind the bobbin, use the foot pedal, and share why I adore it so much. And a sneak peek of an apron pattern and tutorial coming later this year.

🧵 If you have a vintage sewing machines or just want to see what they can do—this one’s for you!

The Sarcoco Tiered Culottes YouTube Sew Along is n The Sarcoco Tiered Culottes YouTube Sew Along is now available on YouTube. I show you how to sew these breezy tiered culottes in a washed denim (mine's from @minervadotcom ) , including adding curved front pockets and angled back pockets (also available from my new pocket collection), adding belt loops (and if you're wondering, my fab vintage belt is from @honeykinsvintage ) and adding hem facings to sneak in extra length (especially useful if you have long legs).
