The Amandine Top by Annie et ses coutures

I am slowly working my way through Annie et ses coutures patterns since they now have english instructions. Today I am wearing the lovely Amandine top made in a soft red rib knit from ABC Fabric. It was a quick make that can be dressed up or an everyday wear. I love that you can play with the large collar on it off the shoulder. Comes in A4, A0 or Projector file. I'm getting in the Christmas spirit making everything in red

New Projector for Sewing!

Everyone has been asking about what sewing machines I use and specifically about projectors. I have a basic Brother FS-40 sewing machine, Brother 1034d overlocker and my newest gadget a Brother coverstitch cv3440.

I have found that Brother is a really good quality brand, popular and easy to repair. I also bought an inexpensive Apeman LC350 projector to try and I love it, no more sticking and printing. My projector is attached to a celling/wall mount which I project down onto my fabric on the floor. It gives me a big area to work on, also I place my laptop on top of a 5 foot unit close to the projector so my wires reach.

Thinking of investing in one?
