What our customers are saying
Christine“The blouse pattern was one of the best presented patterns I have ever bought. I made the blouse in a light cotton, the blouse fits me perfectly, I will make another in viscose.”
Ruth“The Universal Skirt was very straightforward to make, fabulous to wear. Love the option to make a puff ball version. I wear mine to work and is great to dress up or down.
Lynne"A lovely and versatile pattern. I have made two jumpsuits and a dress from this pattern”
Nic“Lisa is a terrific teacher! She gave me the confidence to use my sewing machine, and she tailored the lesson exactly to what I wanted to learn. She's patient, encouraging, and good at explaining things, and we had a lovely chat too."
