Matchwick Makes

So following a dressmaking course I was hooked! And despite my textiles teachers best efforts, it seems that after zero practice in 20 years, I can sew after all! (She always said I should give up sewing as it clearly wasn't for me!).

Since the course in 2013, I pretty much sew everyday. I'm addicted (and also addicted to fabric stashing too - uh oh!).

I started off making little things for me or the house, and then gifts for family and friends, and then thought I needed to set up a little shop to sell these makes or we would have to get a bigger house, or new family and friends! So I set up my etsy shop and my facebook page, and have gone from there.

This is still my hobby. I have a normal full time job, so only sew in my spare time. AND I LOVE IT!
