The BIG G&G SEWcial

A huge thank you to everyone who joined us, supported the event, donated prizes and helped make the day so special. I hope you enjoyed it as much as we did!

And if you couldn't make it to Moseley yesterday, don't worry, because I wanted to extend a little bit of the Sewcial celebrations to you too...

A little Sewcial treat, just for you! βœ‚οΈ

Yesterday we treated everyone shopping in-store to 10% off full-price fabrics, and I didn't want our lovely newsletter subscribers to miss out!

So I am extending the discount to online for you TODAY (Sunday 18th October) ONLY!

You know I LOVE a Jenna Shirt, but this one might be one of my favourites yet! πŸ‘€πŸ’›

For this version, I've had a little fun with colour blocking, using striped cotton double gauze to create something a bit different.

I love how changing the direction of the stripes adds interest to the design, while the lovely soft double gauze gives it that relaxed, easy-to-wear feel. βœ‚οΈ

It's one of those makes that reminds me why I love sewing my own clothes so much. You can take a pattern you already know and love, play around with the fabric and make something that feels completely your own!

I've put together a handy project shopping list with the details of this make, so you can shop the look or use it as inspiration for your own version.
