My view on the concept of lazy sewing, tldr, It doesn't exist.

Decluttering
Why decluttering is hard and how I'm trying to help my mental health by clearing my house of stuff.
Building a Handmade Wardrobe
Or how I began to like myself again.... At the start of this year I decided that I was done spending money on clothes. They cost so much, they never fit me well and the ethics of buying clothes from big stores was a bit depressing. I made a pledge to myself that I wouldn't… Continue reading Building a Handmade Wardrobe
It’s Been A While
I've missed this.... Guys, it's been a while! I haven't written anything for ages and it's been even longer than that since I've written anything that I actually published. I've had some ideas knocking about in my head and written things down but ended up deleting them rather than sharing because I really wasn't sure… Continue reading It’s Been A While
Summer Holidays
So the summer holidays have started and I find myself in a quandary. I have been so looking forward to a bit of time free from the tyranny of the school run and with plenty of time to faff about with the kids and dogs. So far it has not worked that way. I've been… Continue reading Summer Holidays

I've managed to successfully make a couple of things but I'm not confident in my clothes sewing skills despite being reasonably confident on my sewing machine. This year I am determined to expand my me made wardrobe and to expand… Continue reading Sewing Goals
Treats!
I am a total sucker for sweet treats and this afternoon I had a super quick baking session with the Boy. Well... I say baking really what I mean is we made some rice krispie treats (or Mars Bar buns if you prefer!). If you don't know what they are, essentially they are melted Mars… Continue reading Treats!
Time out but not time off!
So it's been a while! My brain has been on a go slow recently and I just haven't been able to concentrate to blog, which is the pits. Anyway I haven't been wholly stagnant! Since I last posted I've managed to cobble together my first ever frame purse with the help of a tutorial by… Continue reading Time out but not time off!
