A Month In Snapshop: April 2015
We're in May already! Wow! Where is this year going? We've had a busy month in the shop, with our classes starting again and lots of new stock winging it's way to us. We got ourselves a shiny red sack barrow to cart our post to the post office, so I think you guys have been busy sewing up a storm too! In snapshot...
- New sewing pattern arrivals in April include the Arielle Skirt from Tilly and the Buttons, two new styles from Oliver+S, in digital and paper: the Butterfly Blouse and Skirt and the Parachute Polo and Sweatpants, and seven great patterns from new designer Salme.
- We got the sad news this week that By Hand London are no longer going to be printing their patterns to paper. We are lucky to still have all the styles in stock at the moment, but we won't be getting any more now.
- New quilt fabric collections include the seaside More Hearty Good Wishes by Janet Clare and the most wonderful Plume feathers from the Nomad collection by Urban Chiks.
- It's been a big month for dressmaking fabric, with some lovely new floral cotton lawns, some groovy new chiffons including some with parrots and palm trees, we've also got ribbed cuff jersey for sweatshirts and the like now, and we've five new colours of our super linen cotton blend. A massive Atelier Brunette delivery arrived too - restocks and all the new ones.
- On Classes, we are underway with our Spring/ Summer schedule go take a look, there are some lovely things to learn and do.
- I've managed to get a bit of sewing in. I finished the Negroni shirt for my husband, and have started on a Victoria Blazer.
- On the blog we've also visited the girls at Named Clothing to check out where they sew.
