Welcome, I'm Ros. This blog documents my sewing adventures. I live with my family in the northern suburbs of Melbourne, Australia.
I sew on a Janome 419S - a very basic machine that I bought second hand on eBay. It hasn't missed a beat and has been a great little workhorse. My overlocker is a Janome 744D. My sewing space is a corner of my dining room, you can see it here.
When I'm not doing the school run, grocery shopping, laundry, or singing Frozen medleys with my 3yo, I also love to cook, read books, try other crafts, read blogs and decorate fun cakes for family and friends. I currently work part time as a medical receptionist at a radiology clinic.

My work has been featured in magazines and on some great sites, including:
Homespun Magazine April 2014 issue - details here.
Mollie Makes Blog - drawstring bag tutorial
Kudos, Lenny Kravitz is not bad for a first gig, it'd pass the RocKwiz test I think. Mine was NKOTB, embarrassing for a long time, but now so bad it's cool again. And yay for permanent Ikea sewing space. Hurrah! Melbourne is better than Sydney. Agreed. Great 'about'!

ReplyDeletePlease don't feel obligated to follow the meme in any way, I just think of it as a nice way to spread some blog love. :)
I love the new about page, I love when people ask me where I got things I've made, Elizabeth's favourite thing is wear her jewellry we've made together and show people her mums blog, depending what I've just posted I'm either happy or horrified :P
