Hi! My name is Erin. I live in the beautiful Sunshine State – Queensland, Australia and have been sewing for a few years now. In the past I’ve made mostly dresses, shirts and some skirts (the basics really) so I would call myself an intermediate sewer. It’s a bit harder going outside that box living in QLD with the heat and humidity 90% off the year.

If you follow my blog I hope to provide you with ideas and inspiration on patterns, list my success or failures, post ideas for future projects and like always… you can be sure if I like a pattern I’ll create it a number of times!

The past four years has been a real exciting time of my life. I was lucky enough to walk away from a bad relationship and finally focus on myself and grow in a really positive way. I changed careers and have now landed myself in a role that I love, working in the digital space. I travelled, went on sailing adventures and met some incredible people, who I’m sure will be my life-long friends. I’ve learnt so much about myself, and life and I’m honestly so grateful for where I am now.

And… after four years of being single, I met someone I absolutely adore who treats me with the utmost kindness and respect! Something we all deserve to have! So I’d happily say that I feel complete with my two little pug furbabies and a really exciting future to look forward to.

So from all of this, I wasn’t been able to put up as many blog posts as I wanted but I’m super excited to keep growing my little hobby and even expand my handmade Etsy shop – Honey Love Handmade!

So welcome to my blog! I hope you find it helpful if you’re learning to sew or simply looking for your next project! Also, feel free to comment or ask me anything at all! I love hearing from you.
