This is me

Hello, my name is Florence. I'm a mother of two, obsessive stitcher and occasional pattern designer. I wake in the night with a mind whirring over sewing construction techniques and daydream away hours pondering fabrics choices. This blog is a record of all these things. I hope you enjoy reading.

Find my patterns & tutorials in the left-hand side bar.

A coveted item

I think these tiles by Flavia Del Pra are amazing, particularly when all grouped together like this.

A favourite perfume

I love Laura Mercier's Creme Brulee perfume...it reminds me of baking, warm vanillary things and my lovely sister, Laura, who has used the creme brulee range for years.
