Hi there! Today, my latest post for the Minerva Crafts Blogger Network goes live. This month I chose to make the Sew Over It Ultimate Trousers (again - they were a very early make for me but it's fair to say they went rather better this time around!)

Hi there! Another day, another Sew Up North update. I don't know about you but I'm feeling slightly stunned at how generous people have been with raffle prizes and goody bag discounts.
