Welcome to March, folks! It's the first Wednesday weekly of the month and I am feeling the open arms of Spring in a big way :) Maybe it's the new issue of Seamwork, or the crocuses outside my door but it definitely feels like winter is drawing to a close in my neck of the woods.
News
Hey June re-released the
Lane Raglan shirt with options for a curved hemline, elbow length sleeves, 3/4 length sleeves, and long hemmed sleeves with no band. This is in addition to the hood and thumbhole wristbands that were added last year - now that is a versatile pattern!
Thread Theory is now carrying
Otter Wax, an ideal treatment for natural leather.
Papercut Patterns released the
Ahoy Collection, a nautical inspired pattern collection with three dresses, one sweater, and one pair of jeans.
The new issue of
Seamwork Magazine is out! Both patterns in this collection are making me swoon - the
Catarina Dress and the
Kenedy Dress.
