It’s been almost 2 weeks since we got back from Vietnam and Cambodia. So many memories from a holiday of a lifetime. This was my most worn make, the #utuskirt from the #breakingthepattern book. I wore this cotton lawn cropped version numerous times. The longer versions were perfect modest attire for temple visiting. More of a pattern review on the blog. Link in bio!! #namedpatterns Cotton lawn from @bombaystores Linen from @myfabricscouk
#soicarrietrousers go to Cambodia. Not worn them before but incredibly useful temple attire here! #sewingtrousers #sewersofinstagram #sewinginreallife #carrietrousers
Speechless. Our guide took us here for the evening sun, missing the coach tours. Amazing photos. Couldn’t share them all! #angkorwat #siemreap #siemreapcambodia
Perfect modest attire for exploring temples in Siem Reap #breakingthepattern #utuskirt #linenskirt #linenwrapskirt #sewingwrapskirts #wrapskirt
The Khmer Smile. First day in Siem Reap. Breathtaking. #ankhorthom
Waiting for the sunset and the fire to be lit. So lucky #phuquoc #vietnam
A little early morning quiet time on holiday. After a 24 hr delay with a faulty plane engine we’ve made it to Vietnam. Brought my #sashiko for quiet times such as this courtesy of @minervadotcom @minervadotcom #sewersgonnasew #sewersofinstagram #phuquoc #embroidery #minervabloggernetwork #holidayembroidery
Back on the #minervabloggernetwork today with my second #cheyennetunic by #heyjunepatterns . Loving these monkeys on this perfect viscose twill!! #sewersofinstagram #handmadewardrobe #sewingtunic #popoverblouse #halfplacketshirt #sewingblouse #sewingmonkeys @minervadotcom
Well it’s #bpsewvember2019 hosted by @bimbleandpimble . I thought I’d join in, my feed has been full of these posts this evening and it has been a really great way of discovering new like minded sewers. Anyway I’m Lucie. I blog at LoveLucie.org I’m always on the lookout for inspiration from fellow 40/50 plus sewing ladies. I work in construction so this is my creative outlet. I feel my skills have improved this past 6 months and I’m really looking forward to getting beyond the basics. I’m part of the #minervacraftsbloggernetwork which I love but do wonder why I’m giving myself additional monthly deadlines when I have enough of them at work! Anyway, goodnight. See you tomorrow xx
Can you have too many pairs of #hudsonpants ? This French terry from @minervadotcom is superb. So soft and great recovery. Husband is not convinced by my camouflage joggers but I’ve had fellow gym goers asking me where I got them from!
