The connection between clothing and poignant moments really fascinates me. It's definitely one of the reasons I fell in love with sewing in the first place and making my own clothes as a teenager became a career. 📍 I love the nostalgia associated with certain items of clothing. I watch films and music videos with a keen eye for detail. The Dressmaker is one of my favourite films for that reason. 📍 I was very surprised and moved to receive this beautiful fabric as a gift from thoughtful friends on my birthday after cancer treatment ended. ✂️ It's a Liberty cotton, which I made into a top for me and then travelled on a life changing journey with. Here I am, thinking thoughts. 🤔 What are your favourite life changing moments connected with clothing? Do you love a particular garment because it makes you feel good or have recycled one because it does the opposite? 📍 ✂️ 🌴 #sewing #patternmaking #patterncutting #sewistsofinstagram #libertyoflondon @vamuseum #memadeeveryday #fashioninfilm #dressmaking #resilience #halterneck #designermaker #creativelifehappylife #creativity #mindfulness #gratitude #comfortclothes #clothingdesign

Sitting in the garden watching the bees buzz from flower to flower whilst listening to Paddy McAloon being interviewed on the @sodajerker podcast. What a gorgeous start to the weekend. His voice gives me goosebumps. And the clematis is flowering again. I didn't expect that. 😊 🎶🌱
