Using vintage patterns can sometimes be challenging as they usually don’t have much in the way of instructions. They were made in the time when most women were home sewers and had help at hand via another family member or friend.
However if you often find you forget to look at instructions and end up doing patterns your own way, they are really fun and a budget way to create a wardrobe!
This was a fun make which I ended hand sewing quite allot as I adjusted the gathers a few times.
We have a box of vintage patterns that we sell for £3 and it’s always worth a look.

Our Story

Fabric and haberdashery shop on the independent Gloucester Road Bristol. We specialise in retro design led cottons of high quality, Liberty tana lawns and unusual prints. We also have a collection of dressmaking fabrics and patterns. Half the shop is a sewing workshop where we run classes and parties for making and creating. Bookings taken online.

We have our own range of sewing kits, patterns and haberdashery for sale at the shop and available to wholesale to other outlets.

Flo-Jo was set up as a shop in 2012 by Delia and Erika who both have a passion for creative sewing and wanted to pass this on. The shop is a friendly space and they are always ready to help and love to see their customers creations.
