Clobber Creations @clobbercreations - Tumblr Blog

Clobber Creations has moved!

My partner has begun a new business venture, which means I now have a new blog and shop! You can now find me at www.clobbercreations.co.uk – it’s still wordpress which means you can still follow and view in your reader.

As a celebration to my new site, you can find a free sewing pattern to try out – the hair towel turban.

I’d love to see you over there!

with my 100 days of stash-busting underway, I decided that I needed to finally use some dressmaking fabrics in my stash. The coco dress is a pattern I was given as a gift over a year ago and have somehow not managed to find the time to make! (more…)
