The pattern, itself, is a dream to make. It has brilliantly written instructions, which are very easy to follow. Sarai has set a very high standard for other independent pattern makers (and the big companies too).
Of course, my sewing standards are not quite as high as they were needed, and somehow, my hemming was atrocious, with a wonky bottom. So I unpicked it all and put it away! For THREE years!!! Oh dear, was it really that long?
Well I have decided in this financially tight time, to get out all my WIP/ UFO and to complete them. So the Beignet is finally finished. It is a red linen skirt, for the spring/ summer. It is fully lined, so it's quite warm, I will definitely wear it, and I am pleased with it overall!
I also have a few patterns and fabric brought for some projects that I have not made yet. I will probably try and do those too!
UPDATE: Sew Magazine are offering the Taffy Blouse from the Colette Patterns Handbook as a free download to print and make
