THE SEWING BEE BUZZ!

If you're anything like us, Wednesday nights are firmly in the calendar as 'Bee-time'! We were sceptical about how season nine of The Great British Sewing Bee could top season eight, but, as ever, Esme, Patrick and Sara haven't let us down. The final's set to air on 26th July (sob!) and we've heard some whispers about those final garments… You won't want to miss it. For more Bee buzz, follow the latest at gathered.how/sewing-bee and join the chat on our 'Great British Sewing Bee Fans' group on Facebook.

OWN POCKET

Oh, how we love that instant confidence we get when we wear a dress with pockets! The Austin dress from the Grainline Studio fits the bill. It's semi-fitted and can be sewn mid or knee length. Pockets are optional, but we won't take no for an answer! Buy from hantexonline.co.uk.

FOR YOU!
