25.01.2022 If you fancy developing your own personal trouser block, I have all my industry blocks available as PDF digital garment blocks on the website. And a few worksheets and blog posts to guide you through the process. http://www.studiofaro.com/my-blocks-pdf #trouserblock #digitalgarmentblock #fittingtrousers #trouserpatterns #trouseralterations #fitteddressblock #skirtblock #corsetblock #knitblock #patternmaking #creativepatternmaking

25.01.2022 If you live in the Riverina area and would like to learn to sew or improve your existing skills, I have three classes a month at different locations. Also includes pattern fittings to make sure your projects turn out just how you want them. Coolamon and Wagga. Regular classes, beginners welcome. https://buff.ly/2FzCaE3 #wellsuitedblog #dressmaking #creativepatternmaking #sewingpatterns #vintagepatterns #fashiondesign #patternmaking #plussize #studiofaro #coolamon #waggawagga Visit Coolamon Shire #simplystitches

22.01.2022 I've just finished a wonderful three day weekend of trouser Block fittings and patternmaking. The results are so much more rewarding when you have three consecutive days of teaching and learning.

21.01.2022 Working on yet another weird shape pattern. One of my favourite Saturday things! Has anyone else tried out a #turnbackdrape pattern?

21.01.2022 It's been a while since I've been online. For the past ten days I've been madly making face masks for a store in Wagga. And it looks like I'll be doing that for a while to come. For all sewists out there, get sewing because it seems there aren't enough masks out there to fill demand. Stay safe and keep sewing.

21.01.2022 I've just finished the best week of teaching in a very long time! Four days of design, illustration and pattern making in Coolamon. I run the Fashion Design Intensive at least once a year for textile teachers and aspiring fashion designers.

20.01.2022 Which do you prefer? A left or right side hip twist. Hip Twist Top - Sewing Instructions https://buff.ly/30jMn4W #wellsuitedblog #patternpuzzles #creativepatternmaking #PDFsewingpatterns #plussize #studiofaro #hiptwisttop #japanskirtpattern #patentblouse #pencilskirtsewingpattern

17.01.2022 My latest batch of masks. Things have slowed down on the mask-making front, thank heavens. But it looks like we may need them for a while to come. What's everyone else sewing?

17.01.2022 Sewing class this Sunday in Coolamon for beginners and advanced students. I still have a couple of places left if you want to get that sewing mojo going. Also specialise in helping you the best fitting from your patterns. Book online or send me a message: https://buff.ly/2FzCaE3

16.01.2022 Pattern making excellence! Le has used the pattern making instructions on my blog to make her own Hip Twist Top. https://buff.ly/32X61oi #STUDIOFAROMAKERS #wellsuitedblog #hiptwisttop #patternpuzzle #patternmakinginstructions #pdfsewingpatterns #sewingpatterns #twistpatterns #jerseytwists

15.01.2022 Ding Ding! Round three in the sampling process. Going for a longer sleeve and maybe a different neckline. More to follow tomorrow in the sampling of what I'm now calling the 'Summer Breeze' dress.

15.01.2022 Testing a new hi-lo tee pattern with hood. Fabric turned out to be a bit disappointing. Online fabric choices are sometimes not what you imagined. But no problem for a wearable toile. I have a few pattern alts to make before my next sample. But overall happy with the outcome. What's everyone else been making this week?

14.01.2022 More results from my sewing session. A three-colour outsized tee. I've used a few of my Cotton and rayon two-way stretch jersey leftover pieces of fabric. It seems such a shame to waste any of you favourite fabrics, no matter how small. What do you do with smaller pieces of cloth left over from your projects?

12.01.2022 There's a busy September coming up for the Riverina. Dressmaking and Pattern Making classes to push your creative projects to the next level. #sewingclasses #dressmaking #patternmaking #wagga #coolamon Visit Coolamon Shire http://www.studiofaro.com/book-riverina-workshops

11.01.2022 Second sample looking a bit better than the first. Cotton/linen blend for our hot summers. It's shorter because I only had 1.8m to work with. So this will be a tunic for me or a short dress for others. Still some minor tweaks and maybe a sleeve variation to test. I don't have a name for this style/design. Any ideas what I should call it?

07.01.2022 Too fabulous not to share!!

06.01.2022 Dressmaking and sewing classes to resume in June & July. #wellsuitedblog #patternpuzzles #creativepatternmaking #fittingpatterns #vintagepatterns #PDFsewingpatterns #plussize #studiofaro #dressmakingclasses #patternmaking #waggawagga #coolamon @VisitCoolamon #sewingclasses Love Local Coolamon

06.01.2022 Now that the mask thing has calmed down a little I've been able to get loads of sewing under way. A few new tees, some trousers and a new dressing gown. What's everyone else sewing this weekend?

05.01.2022 First sample made, pattern modifications complete, and ready to cut a new sample. Fabric from the Ganmain Craft Cottage. I dropped the underarm point by 2cm, added 2.5cm through front bodice length for FBA and finessed the final length of the dress. Next sample will most likely be tunic length on account of a shorter piece of fabric. Stay posted for the next instalment.
