Tips, tricks, trials, and successes as I sew along. Projector patterns is my newest thing to conquer as I seek to create my own custom fitted wardrobe...or at least mostly. Quilting is another of my passions and I’m obsessed with all my Juki machines!

I can finally show you the new Sinclair pattern release!

I *love* how this came together.

The cross over detail is great color blocked or not and it’s such a flattering dress (you can also make a top).

I’ll have some projector-specific tips for making it later today.

In the meantime, go buy it with my #afflink: sinclairpatterns.com/collections/frontpage/product….

The red, white, and blue fabric is from phDetour and the spring-y fabric from JoAnns.

I took the new Bondi with an add on sleeve for a test in the park with my lovely assistant!

As someone who is 4’11” I LOVE the Petite option on Sinclair patterns! I didn’t have to alter this neckline, the shirt length, or the sleeve lengths at all and ended up with a perfect fit. And, while the notches could use a bit of help to be more visible, I didn’t change a thing when using my projector.

This is a wide scoop neck, hemmed hip length, long Bishop sleeve version of the updated Bondi 22.

Don’t miss this new and improved pattern and the sleeve add on pack! Definitely a great pattern to make a ton of staples for your closet.

Oh and those are Sinclair Viennas on bottom!

If you follow me, you may also follow ‪@TechieSewing‬ for her very helpful Inkscape videos. Marta lives in Kyiv. Reposting an update Sasha Sewist made 7 hours ago in the Projectors for Sewing group for this who may not have seen it.

“Many of us are watching the news of the invasion of Ukraine and thinking of a beloved member of this group, Marta Gvozdinskaya.
Digital editing of sewing pattern's popularity is due in large part to Marta's extensive and helpful videos on her YouTube channel. Marta is currently OK, and still in Kyiv with her family.
We are all so powerless in this tragedy, but I encourage those who can to make a donation to Voices of Children, a Ukrainian charity that gives support to children who have experienced war trauma. voices.org.ua/en/
I also encourage you to join any local demonstrations in your area to support Ukraine and encourage your governments to do more to protect democracy.
If there are any other Ukrainian members of this group who need support or have a suggestion for what group members can do, please let us know.”

As you’re praying for the situation in Ukraine, please remember Marta and her family. And please consider the suggestions Sasha made for other ways to help.

Whew! Life has been a lot lately and my video making has certainly suffered.

If you’re in my Facebook group, head over there for what we’re doing tonight in lieu of a video (sorry!).

If you’re not already in the group but you’d like to be, you can join by going to www.Facebook.com/groups/DaileySews and answering the questions.

Hoping very much to do the next Affinity Designer Live the 1st and 3rd Sunday evenings in February.

I made a couple graphics to help when people new to the projector sewing idea have questions. This is the second. Posted the other a bit ago. See both at www.DaileySewsAndStuff.com/projector-sewing
