Carousel Circle Skirt

By popular demand, I'm very pleased to share February's Patreon pattern, the Carousel circle skirt. 

The Carousel circle skirt is designed in 12 gores. I made mine with alternating red and white upper sections to evoke the fairground feel. The template for the appliqué horses is also included in both printable PDF and SVG formats.

The instruction booklet includes a printable project planner for you to colour in so you can play with different colour combinations.

The Carousel circle skirt is available in waist sizes 26-42”. Get the pattern and instructions on my Patreon page.

Another throwback to Madagascar last year and my fishy beach cape. I’ve long been obsessed with the concept of beach capes, which were popular in the 1930s-50s, often made in chenille or terrycloth fabrics. I’ve used this one on beach hol
Throwback to our Madagascar trip last year, and this tropical dream of a pattern, the #waterfalldress from #charmpatterns. Inspired by an original “Polynesian pattern” edition, it works great in a floaty viscose challis like this for the
Another of my favourite patterns is the #mimosadress, which I released last year. I’ve made five versions of it now. I like that the relatively simple silhouette lets a bold print like this shine. It’s also another one that comes together
More views of the #catskillshalterneck bodice (paired with the #sightseeingskirt). It was fun playing with geometry with this stripe fabric! For this version I cut the bodice front on a bias, aligning the grain with the neckline to create the V effec
