#1 Adjusting the darts on your pattern for an improved bust line fit

#2 How to prevent a gaping neckline

#3 No.1 thing to do before sewing a fitted garment

#4 How to get a better crotch fit by using your iron

Sewing Tour – Our Patterned Hand London

Tuesday, November 13th, 2012

Hi Everyone,

Well today I share with you our final stop on our London Sewing Tour to ‘Our Patterned Hand’.

Today we had to get our umbrella’s out to keep dry in some London rain! But it certainly didn’t dampen our shopping experience that’s for sure!

It was here that I found so many gorgeous buttons that I didn’t know which ones to limit myself to! Watch my video below to see the selection of buttons from Our Patterened Hand!

My new buttons!

Our Patterned hand is also located along Broadway Market. It’s such a wonderful street that we had to stop for a delicious lunch in a organic cafe deli and have a well deserved coffee!

Pop into Our Patterned Hand to take a look – it’s just down the road from Barley Massey from Fabrications!
