New Book for Christmas 2024 by Homemade by Sarnia
Welcome to a World of Cozy, Sustainable Fashion!
Hello, friends and fellow makers!
I’m thrilled to introduce you to my latest project, “Winter Warmers: Easy, Eco-Friendly Fashion for the Cold Season,” a book filled with fun, simple-to-make patterns designed for everyone—whether you’re a total beginner or an experienced crafter looking for something new. This book is my way of showing that style doesn’t have to come at a high cost—either for your wallet or the planet.
We’re living in a time where fast fashion is everywhere, but the cost of living is rising, and many of us are feeling the pinch. That’s why I’ve put together this guide to creating your own winter wardrobe using recycled fabrics and easy-to-find budget materials. From thrift store finds to old curtains and bedding, you’ll discover how to turn what you already have at home into chic, cozy pieces for the colder months.
You don’t need to be an expert seamstress or have loads of time on your hands—these patterns are quick, simple, and fuss-free. No zips, no buttonholes, no stress! Whether you’re upcycling an old quilt into a poncho or crafting a stylish scarf from a thrifted sweater, you’ll find step-by-step instructions, hand-drawn illustrations, and plenty of creative inspiration.
This isn’t just about making clothes—it’s about embracing a more sustainable, mindful approach to fashion. When we recycle fabrics, we’re not only saving money; we’re helping reduce waste and doing our part for the environment. And guess what? It’s fun, too!
So, if you’ve ever wanted to make your own clothes but didn’t know where to start, this book is for you. Let’s get creative, stay warm, and look fabulous while we do it!
I can’t wait to see what you’ll make. Share your creations with the hashtag #HandmadeWinterStyle on social media—I’ll be keeping an eye out for your fantastic designs!
Stay cozy

Some Days, song lyrics by Sarnia de la Mare for Tale Teller Club
Some days
There is no mist
I see the moon
With it's promises
It's seductive palms
Caress my mind
And I dream
Of freedom
Some days
The mist descends
Dense and milky
It catches my throat
And the mist says
‘You are blind
And you are deaf
You are invisible
a Deadweight
In my milky power'
Such days as these
I take
To rest
Chorus
