Sewjo... Lilian Top & Collins Dress

Episode 27 is packed with sew-jo energy! Thank you to The Fold Line for sponsoring this show. With the pick of all the patterns Gemma whipped up the Collins Dress from Friday Pattern Company, and Kylie made the Lilian Top by Fibre Mood. We chat about how each make came together, any fitting dramas along the way, what we'd change next time, and whether we'd sew them again. If you're in need of some sewing inspiration, this is the perfect episode to reignite your sew-jo.
