Hi.

Welcome to my blog. I mainly post about my sewing projects, as I’m building a colourful and comfortable everyday wardrobe suitable for a working mum of primary school children. I really love African wax fabric, so that features heavily. I also occassionally post about family life in Edinburgh and travel. Hope you have a nice stay!

Mini Hudsons

Mini Hudsons

Just a wee quicky today for completeness in my sewing, I made these Mini Hudsons for Milo. Probably his last ever pair, as he’s now aged out, sad times

Pattern: True Bias Mini Hudsons

Size: 10, which is the largest unfortunately

Fabric: Some cool organic jersey with bikes he picked in Brussels

Adjustments: I made the ankle bands slightly wider like I always do. I also lengthened by 5 cms at the bottom, no other adjustments as Milo is pretty skinny
