A Stitching Odyssey

Obsessed with stitching. Loves vintage styles from the late 1930s to the early 1960s, yet mostly sews contemporary designs, so instigated #vintagepledge.

@sainsburys Hi there 😊 I sent you a DM a couple of days ago and haven't heard back yet. It's about a damaged item of clothing I received from you..hope you can help 🙏

@KatyMontgomerie Mate, you've got to level up 😝🥰

@EastMidRailway Thanks for your speedy reply. I will email in a complaint as I can't fathom the justification for canceling that service's busiest train, leaving hundreds of us due in work on Monday stranded at such short notice.

@EastMidRailway Hi there! Can you confirm whether your removal of the 8:08am train from Syston to Leicester is permanent? If so, how was this decision made, given that it's so many people's only way of getting to work for a 9am start during the weekdays?

@OliverMcGrath It's absolutely not fair, that's the hardest thing to accept. But I'm here for all the cheeky Adam footage and this one is priceless. Thanks so much for sharing...suxh lovely memories for you to cherish ❤

It's been a tough week trying to come to terms with the devastating loss of a truly lovely colleague and friend. Adam always had a spring in his step and a positive attitude, making me smile daily. He was taken far too soon and will be sorely missed yet remembered so fondly 💔

We’re heartbroken to announce the passing of our senior social media officer Adam Redfern, whose creativity shaped so much of our content. An integral part of our community, Adam was the best of DMU in one person, and we’ll miss him so much. Please read the DMU/DSU tribute here.

@OliverMcGrath As well as can be under the circumstances...your good self? I'm so grateful to Lydia for posting all the little video clips and photos of Adam recently. They're so, so joyous and never fail to make me smile through the tears ♥️

@lynas_andrew @KatyMontgomerie I mean, is a dress pattern ever worth stitching up if it doesn't have pockets??! 🤣

[A Stitching Odyssey @StitchOdyssey]

@KatyMontgomerie As good as any reason for choosing a pattern...loving the lingo and excited to see your progress ✂️❤✂️

[A Stitching Odyssey @StitchOdyssey]

@KatyMontgomerie This makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside 🙌 Which pattern? Can't wait to see it finished ❤️

@VMuise @sewingbee It's weird, isn't it?!?

[A Stitching Odyssey @StitchOdyssey]

You could make a drinking game out of the amount of times Margaret Thatcher is mentioned in this series of the @sewingbee! Why?!? #SewingBee

Couldn't be prouder of this gal! Not only did I have the pleasure of working with @Chatwithlyds before she spread her wings for bigger things, I also had the pleasure of telling her story...which is by far my favourite part of the job 💗💗💗

When DMU grad Lydia secured her dream job on ITV’s @thismorning, she never imagined she'd become an essential worker ⭐
