Welcome to my blog. My name is Katie and I love anything to do with sewing! I haven't been sewing for long but through the projects I have undertaken I have learnt many skills and techniques. I am a self taught sewist and my only previous experience was a little sewing machine made for children when I was about 7! I never thought about sewing again after that broke, until I left school and started earning money. My sewing machine was an impulse buy one day after getting a tattoo. I don't know why or how I decided to, but it became a very expensive day for me! Anyway the first thing I did was alter my boyfriends' shorts, and I instantly fell in love, so I got loads of patterns and looked for different fabrics and after many, many mistakes, I am now so proud of the stuff that I have been making!
My blog is mainly going to be about the things I have made and looking at what I have used such as the patterns and fabrics. I will also show you all the stupid and time consuming mistakes that I make and how I sort them out, hopefully to save you a lot of time and frustration and give clarity on different aspects of sewing because, let's be honest, sewing is a massive umbrella term for a million and one different things that can sometimes be very confusing. I also am starting to sell my items on my Depop account- @katiecritchersewing, so if you're interested go and have a look or just e-mail me! I have a lot of patterns that I haven't tried out yet so if you're interested in anything that I don't have on my account, just ask and I'll see what I can do!
