In 2019 I gave myself two sewing projects to work towards: a bra and a pair of jeans. The bra is mostly completed and sadly in the totally incorrect size but the jeans are done and I am rather in love! These are the Workroom Social Claryville Jeans. I was absolutely smitten with these when…

Amanda vs Zadie Jumpsuit
If there is a medal for crazy outfit photos I think the fact I took these in 9 degree weather should get me some kind of cake hat hat made of cake. But, gentle blog readers of which there may be a few still around but more realistically just Future Amanda, it was totally worth…
Amanda vs Palisades Shorts
You know you have a winner of a me-made when you start to wear the fabric through at all the seams. My last Springfield Top has been my summer MVP for the last two years and as I dove into the stash to grab fabric for a new version I knocked my pile of linen…
Amanda vs Bellbird Wrap Dress
90% of the time I am organised (perhaps a little too much) and have things arranged well ahead of time. This all failed me for Sydney Frocktails earlier this year when 10 days out I finally tried on my selection of fancy summer frocks and realised none fit any longer and if I wanted too…
![Why hello sassy sun safety! This is the Serpentine Hat by @elbe_textiles made up in IKEA fabric by designer Margarethe Odgaard.

Hats off to y’all for checking it out! P.S. thank you to everyone who checked in after the hail storm last week. We got off pretty easily and everyone is safe and sound. We’ve lost a window, our studio awnings and our gardens. But I got to make peach cobbler earlier so there is a silver lining there. Nom!

[image descriptions] 1. A white woman with blonder hair is wearing a striped shirt and is holding on to the edges of a cream coloured wide brimmed hat. 2. The woman faces away from the camera and epic geometric lines in blue, pink and white are visible on the back of the hat. 3. A close up of the hat. The fabric is cream and there are navy, blush pink, sunshine yellow and white lines on the fabric. 4. A close up of the woman’s face in the hat. She looks super stoked to have made a hat. Also her hair looks cute. 5. The inside of the hat is against a white background. It is lined in the same fabric. 6. A hailstone the size of a golfball is held in the woman’s left hand. In the background there is lots of hail and leaves on the paved ground.
