I made two collared camp shirts for my husband in no time.
Super simple to follow the pattern and the extra resources/videos etc were so helpful for the fine details.
Thank you so much Jane! I'll be sure to check your site first the next time I'm making something new xo
I really enjoyed making the Bucket Hat. The pattern, and instructions are very easy to follow. The finished product was a perfect fit and looked great. Highly recommend
Great communication, beautiful fabric.
I really enjoyed sewing this pattern. The instructions were easy to follow and I'm very happy with how the robe turned out. I made my robe out of flanelette and added piping. It's lovely and warm. Definitely recommend this pattern.
Jane congratulations on your extensive array of beautifully crafted designs and gorgeous gift solutions. Your Autumn range has brightened up our kitchen no end with few failing to admire your tea towels when they call in.
I’m really excited to make this, but I want to make it special. My husband had a winter robe I bought him 30 years ago and while it is threadbare in parts he won’t part with it, so this summer robe needs to be the right fabric weight and colour. Still in the planning. Winter here in Australia so I have a little time for selection
I received my fabric today and I was so happy, the fabric ( the orange leaf) is so much better than the picture, wonderful quality 👍👍. I will be making it into a shirt and I can’t wait to get started. Thank you Jane for your wonderful design, I really love it, Coralie in Brookfield 😊😊
This fabric looks and feels great, can't wait to sew another pair of men's boxers. The printed design is unique- there's nothing like this at Spotlight!
Very nice fabric
The shorts turned out really well, the pattern was well presented and very easy to make with the aid of Jane's excellent step by step video tutorials. I enjoyed being part of the sew-along and look forward to more opportunities to participate and learn in this way. The fabric is lovely to work with and I'm looking forward to making more garments with Jane's amazing fabric designs.
I had the lovely opportunity to join into the Valentine's day sewalong this weekend. It was my first sewalong and I really enjoyed the experience. I've been sewing on and off for 25 years or so. Sewing is a solo hobby for me and joining a sew-along makes it more communal.
The shorts pattern was easy to understand and cut out of the lovely fabric which was included in my sew-along. Jane's step by step videos were excellent to follow along. I really liked how the shorts turned out. Definitely recommend this pattern and I will definitely join more sew-alongs!
I wanted to support a local designer. Jane was very responsive and supportive when I had difficulty interpreting the instructions, Jane was very open to changing things to make it easier to understand. In the end, the shirt fitted beautifully without any adjustments. I'm very happy with it.
Having not sewn for many years, I thoroughly enjoyed the sew along. It was great to keep me on track with the tasks broken down into manageable chunks each day. Jane’s instructional videos were so helpful, being a visual learner I found watching the videos made it so easy to complete the tasks. Even the more complex tasks like the yoke and collar were easy to work through to end up with a professional finish. Jane was extremely encouraging and helpful with answering any questions or helping solve issues I had. I look forward to making more shirts and I know that the skills I have learnt will be used in many other sewing projects. Thanks Jane for encouraging me to start sewing again.
The videos are extremely helpful for a visual learner like me
Having contemplated and procrastinated sitting at my sewing machine after many years the option to join Jane and creative others was a godsend.
From the very beginning the communication, encouragement, task layout, delivery and enthusiasm was brilliant. I can access all video tutorials, group communications, and find the detailed instructions extremely helpful. This has changed the way I will access patterns and continue my sewing journey.

Care Instructions For Fabric
Cotton | Cotton Poplin | Cotton Twill | Seersucker | Essex Linen | Linen Cotton Canvas
Machine wash warm or cool on a gentle/delicate setting, using phosphate-free detergent. Machine dry on a low temperature setting. Iron on the reverse side of the fabric. Woven fabrics like this one may experience fraying when washed.
Muslin | Cotton Silk
Machine wash cool on a gentle/delicate setting, using phosphate-free detergent. I like to put in a bag to reduce fraying. Line dry. Cool iron if needed using a pressing cloth or by ironing on the unprinted side of the fabric.
Satin
Wash separately in cool water using a gentle machine cycle. Machine dry using a low temperature or permanent press setting and remove promptly to avoid wrinkles.
