There's a certain sense of the changing season running through your home-sewn garments this month. April’s sewing Inspiration Board showcases how you've transformed The Modern Sewing Co. patterns and online workshops into new wardrobe favourites. Think bold florals, fresh greens, plus floral (and animal) prints that make you want to head straight to the cutting table. 

From a show stopping coat with a surprise colour-pop lining, to a rainbow bright upcycling project for fabric scraps, to a piece of pinstriped tailoring perfection - these are just some of the makes that caught our eye.
