ITS September Spotlight Blogtour

Wow, where is 2019 going? September already?! It's definitely starting to feel autumnal here in the UK with the winds picking up, temperatures dropping and darker evenings drawing in.  So for most it's time to sew all the sweaters, coats and jeans, of which I have plenty planned.  

​We have just received a wedding invite for a November wedding though, so instead, my sewing has been focussing on making myself an outfit warm enough for cooler weather whilst still looking dressy enough for the occasion, fingers crossed I've managed!

​I am thrilled to be part of this September Spotlight Blogtour, hosted by Crystal Rice of Sewing Vortex  highlighting some of the older pattern releases from the Itch to Stitch catalogue.  

​We have so many talented bloggers this tour,  featuring a huge 28 {if I've counted correctly} of Itch to Stitch's older patterns so be sure to check out their stops for tonnes of inspiration

Don't forget to enter the rafflecopter giveaway below and see which patterns have the exclusive 25% off for the next 24 hours.

North Point Trousers

9/5/2017

In my opinion, everybody needs a pair of classic tailored formal occasion or work appropriate pair of trousers in their wardrobe.  There isn't always time to make or buy a pair when needed so having them there, ready in case, seems logical to me!  With that, I introduce you to my newest pair! A pinstripe version make with the new North Point Trousers pattern from Itch to Stitch. Complete with all the necessary features including, single welt back pockets, slanted front pockets, zipper fly and hooks, belt loops and blind hems, they're the perfect pattern in my opinion for the job!

I'm not going to lie, these took a while to make! There are 29 pages to print and assemble (although they're trim pages and line up so well, that it's really not a chore at all!) and then the cutting of the fabric before embarking on a 79 step construction BUT I believe it is totally worth it for the quality, finish and fit of the final trousers.
