The Fraser Sweatshirt

I'm going to put all the blame on Christmas here, and that spending time with family and friends, going out and getting all the shopping done really was far more important.

Down on the south coast it's business as usual with our weather but I am keeping an eye on the news and hoping everyone on the east coast is safe and well. I think your best bet is to batten down the hatches, stick on Netflix and get your sewing machine out!

January Box: Netflix & Sew

The theme for this box was inspired by the gorgeous Katie of Alba's Treats who got in touch with me about collaborating for one of the boxes. Well obviously I jumped at the chance!

December Inspiration

December Inspiration

The December SewHayleyJane boxes were all about staying warm and cosy when it's cold outside. I love going out for a winter walk when there is frost on the ground, even better if there is snow on the ground. But you gotta stay warm! So I sent out boxes full of super snuggly fleece-lined sweatshirt fabric in the Luxury Boxes and a lovely quilted knit fabric in the Mini and Classic Boxes.

The December Box

The December Box

The 'theme' for this month is Walking in a Winter Wonderland which to me mean means something seriously cosy and snuggly. Instagram has been full of handmade jumpers, sweatshirts and jumper-dresses so what could be better than sending a box of quilted knit fabric and fleece backed sweatshirt fabric. Perfect.
