Do you love sewing? I do, and I love sharing my sewing pattern reviews here. I started by sewing for my kids 6 years ago after my twins were born and I found myself needing something to help me relax as I now had 5 kids.
The funny thing is that when I started my sewing journey, I never thought I’d sew for myself but I got the bug and now I have a completely 100% handmade wardrobe. I have sewn everything from mens coats, trousers, shirts to little girls dresses, leggings and everything in between.
If you love sewing, dressmaking, and tailoring then you will find lots to be inspired by here. I share some tips and tricks I have picked up over the years. You will find helpful and honest reviews here on Saturday Night Stitch.
I am passionate about using sewing magazines like Burda, Knipmode, Patrones and La Maison Victor in my sewing as well as indie pattern companies and Vogue, McCalls, New Look, Simplicity paper patterns.
