New website


I have a new website and me like-y a lot!  The new site features all sorts of goodies such as a freebies page, a lookbook page,  a press page, and a shop page that allows me to add a whole bunch of pics for each pattern.  So please come on over and have a look around.  

Speaking of press, this months Sewing World issue did an article on Jamie Christina Designs.  




Alice Synge of Backstitch wrote the lovely piece and gave me an opportunity to convey my motivation behind the sewing patterns.  I also got a chance to talk a little about my mom and granny, which means a lot to me. 

Other news to share... I've been busy working on a new sewing pattern.  As I get closer to the release I'll share more info about it, but for now I can tell you that it's the PERFECT pattern for cold weather.  Ooooh I can't wait!

Cheers,

Jamie

Must make

Here are a few things I need to try...


Hermes guide to summer scarf knotting via Everything Fabulous.






Easiest dress ever via Anna Maria Horner.



Hair Chignon via This is Glamorous.

A paper beaded necklace (link).
Instagram poster (link).
Matte nails in black (link).

Lastly, Pizza Skewers with garlic dipping sauce.  Can I hear an "Ah Yea" out there!?  These look so delicious and easy!  I'm in trouble now.

Cheers,

Jamie
