Mum of girls 🎀 Dog mum 🐾 Newly ventured into dressmaking 🧵 Campaigns for Scotland’s anti-poverty network ❤️
A weekend of catching up with friends, walking the kids and the dog in the fresh air, and taking some little chill moments to work on my dressmaking skills.
Buttonholes were once my nemesis but look at them now 😍 #adventuresindressmaking #happysunday #mumlife #sewsky2025

Lots to think about after today’s #MakingChange Happen conference hosted by @povertyalliance.org. Panel guests, workshop speakers, and conversation with activists and members were thought-provoking and inspiring. Looking forward to putting ideas into action 😊

I think talking about dogs is always a nice way to start a conversation…
So here’s my first post, accompanied by a pic of a very good girl called Ginny who loves her mum, treats, long walks, and making friends.
