jules m smit #snowtop + @seamwork.bsky.social #josspants = fave summer combo in this forsaken sydney weather.

top fabric is a lovely compact cotton, pants are a soft drapey hemp/tencel blend — both from potter & co. australia.

it’s 31 degrees celsius here in sydney today, so naturally i’m #quilting fabric to make a Merchant & Mills hot water bottle ❤️‍🔥

I’ve devoured this (audio) book by Holly Ringland. If you are struggling to tap into your creativity, give it a listen/read. Appealed to me as a #sewsky but applies to #writing #art #diy #gardening #cooking #quilting … anything.

bad news … all the hems on my #pipitloungewear have come out a different length? i’m baffled. i’m sure it’s user error but i’ve never come across this prob before … anyone?

Denim jacket of my ✨dreams✨ is complete.

Pattern is the #lunajacket by Papercut Patterns, fabric is a patchwork indigo denim from The Fabric Store.

Already planning on making a second jacket for more fancy occasions 💅
