🧡 IMPORTANT UPDATE – TODAY’S KIDS & TEENS SEWING CLASSES 🧵

Good morning everyone! 💕

I’ve made the decision to cancel today’s Kids Sewing classes and our Teens Sewing class today due to the amber weather warning across Scotland. 🌧️💨

It’s never an easy decision to cancel classes, especially when I know how much our young sewists look forward to coming along!

However, I really don’t want anyone travelling unnecessarily or putting themselves at risk just to get to a sewing class.

Everyone booked onto today’s classes will be offered a full refund. ❤️

As much as I love having our young sewists in the studio, I’d much rather know you’re all safe and cosy at home.

Thank you so much for your understanding. Please stay safe, keep warm and we’ll get those sewing machines buzzing again very soon! 🧵✂️

Lots of love,

Kay 💕

🧵 A little bit of my sewing history stitched into one jacket! ❤️

Well, here she is! My finished Manon cropped trench jacket, and I have to say I’m rather chuffed with this one! 🥰

I’ve used a mixture of beautiful Scottish wool fabrics I’ve collected over the years on my travels, mixing checks, herringbone and contrasting textures to create something a wee bit different.

But this jacket has brought back some lovely memories too.

Many years ago, I worked at DAKS Simpson, first as a Training Supervisor and also as a Quality Manager.

I was lucky enough to learn from some incredibly skilled people, including one gentleman who actually came out of retirement to teach me the art of sewing checked sleeves.

I wish I could remember his name, because all these years later, I’ve never forgotten what he taught me. ❤️

And yes, I’ve been matching those checks on this jacket! Once a quality manager, always a quality manager! 😂

But here’s the really special bit…

Those buttons are original DAKS buttons I’ve kept all these years from my factory days!

Who would have thought they’d eventually find their way onto a jacket I’d make for myself, in my very own sewing studio?

From learning my trade, to training others, to eventually opening Sew You Can and sharing everything I’ve learned with my lovely sewing community.

It’s funny how life comes full circle. 🥹

This is why I love sewing. It’s not just about making clothes. It’s about the skills we learn, the people who teach us and the little bits of history we carry along the way.

And now I’m looking forward to sharing some of those skills at our upcoming Manon jacket workshops at Sew You Can.

Saturday 24th October is our next workshop! 🧵

Lots of love,

Kay ❤️
