The Weekly Stitch: 07/07/2025

I'm very happy to tell you that I have spent a little while working on my Archipel Top this weekend. I have finally cut it out in this beautiful broderie anglaise and matching cotton lawn fabric. I have finished the interfacing and I'mready to start sewing it together this week.

If you’re feeling inspired to start a new dressmaking project I’ve rounded up this week’s popular fabrics and there is also a gorgeous new fabric of the week. I hope you like them.
