Rainy day sewing creating these fab wrap tops from scratch from our own pattern design. At the ready now for when the sun comes out again! You’d never guess that two of them were complete beginners! 😎

I’ve had a wonderful time making these with Rebecca at RJ Leather Sewing School. The pattern was created from my own sketches and magically transformed over 4 fabulous days! 😊

Yay the sun is shining and the summer holidays are getting nearer 🌞. I’m so excited to be launching Artful Sew & Sews Holiday Clubs for all those children and teens who want to get creating fab clothes and things on a sewing machine or just fancy trying out some art and craft skills. There’s a range of fun clubs for all ages and abilities, so no need to be bored this summer. You are welcome to come and try one of the taster sessions or join one of the after school clubs if you can’t wait till the holidays! ☀️☀️☀️
