2014 Things I sewed and did - A short review

Well, its that time of year again! And all I can say is that I'm pretty happy this year is coming to a close. Its been pretty shitty for most of the part, but there were also some really kick-ass things that happened this year and I sewed some really awesome frocks! 

At the end of last year, I had also made a bunch of sewing resolutions which I promptly broke, not cause I wanted to, but well, life happened. But I did make many splendid dresses and met lots of people through the Spoolettes and Makers Society. I also was featured in lots of magazines and other wonderful blogs. Here is a round up of the things I made this year. (There are more, but I'm yet to post them! 


Good day Sunshine, Shift dress sew along
Saffron, Charlotte, Peggy
Swing dress, Sally, Julie
Olivia, Tangerine, Chrissie

All in all 2014 wasn't too bad. I need to stop kicking myself for not blogging every week, and even though work was super stressful, I have a new job next year and therefore many more things to sew for it and opportunities to experience.

I hope you all enjoy your new years, I'll be down the coast sunning it up and spending hopefully a whole day at the beach! 

Thanks for reading this year and for being totally awesome and wonderful. I hope to see you all in 2015!

  6. Hi, Cat! I won't dare say that you had a sew sew year. :) It was a very memorable one, my friend. You astonished me and all your other blog friends with your wonderful 60s and 70s outfits. It was a pleasure to follow you in 2014 and I hope that we can become even better friends in 2015. Here's wishing you a safe, healthy and happy new year, dear friend Catherine!

  13. Catherine,
    I absolutely love your style and admire your work. I have have a very similar taste in clothing as you, I like to wear very unusual clothing from the 1960s but I've come across a problem: I can't find any shoes to go with my outfits! How do you typically shop for shoes?
