I kinda think the G in “Mimi G” stands for genius... on the blog today is my review of @mimigstyle’s beautiful cropped trench pattern, #s8890. Spoiler alert: I love it, it’s amazing - buy it, make it and love it too! . #diycroppedtrench #dressmaker #sewcialist #imakemyownclothes #whyisew @simplicity_creative_group #s8890

She needs hemming, a belt, possibly a button (undecided!) and a good press. After which, I’m beginning to think she’ll be a longtime favourite 😍... #workinprogress #oneofakind #sewingismysuperpower #slowbutsteady

I want to work on my hand sewing generally, so I find that these days I’m minded to find ways to add small touches like the understitching of this collar, which I did by hand with a pickstitch. It’s not the most even but I do love the look. Practice, practice, practice! . #workinprogress #sewingproject #s8890 #croppedtrench #needspressing

In other news, I finally made it to the Dior exhibition at the V&A this week, and I find myself longing to get a mini mannequin and pretend I can make passable mini “couture” dresses, all day long.. . . . #diordesignerofdreams #onedaymaybe

Snuck in a bit of sewing time this morning and made decent progress on my current project. Looking forward to my next sewing session! . . . #imakemyownclothes #sewcialists #isew

Is it just me or is clocking off on Friday evening the best part of the week??😃 Today felt like a good day to debut my me-made @byhandlondon #elisalex at the office and she will definitely be featuring more often now that it’s a bit warmer!☀️☀️☀️
