Jenny Andrew's Bio
Trade union nerd-mascot ; #dataArchitect ; #autistic ; she/her
Reformed oceanographer, turned #DataManagement professional, turned #TradeUnion officer. I’m interested in data as a tool of union activity, and unions’ role as the moderator of workplace data & tech
#tradeUnions ; #data ; science ; dogs ; #sewing ; equalities. Fundamentally ungovernable.

#WeekendSewingClub holiday special… this is the face of a woman thinking “fuck you I won”.
I jettisoned the coat I started last week (energy too scarce to waste on a project that doesn’t excite me), and redirected attention to the water-resistant, bonded houndstooth wool, but with a ‘simple’ cape pattern (new look, N6768).
It was like sewing a tarpaulin. Should have been doable in two days, but took 5. My hands are TRASHED. I love the result. #sewing #tailoring #iMadeItMyself #ItHasPockets

#WeekendSewingClub latest…
Here’s the houndstooth Italian wool wrap dress, as near finished as it needs to be today. I will absolutely wear this.
A couple of details I’m pleased with:
The tie opening on the side seam is reinforced inside with a scrap of leather - invisible on the outside.
The hems are kind of low-rent for the fancy fabric: just overlocked and turned in: quite visible (though colour-matched). More importantly, it keeps that curved edge, and especially the flounce nice & fluid

#WeekendSewingClub final update. Still a bit of finishing to be done on the fly opening, but I’m ready for an evening off! I’m pretty satisfied with how these turned out. I love a woven selvedge, so I was pleased to think of keeping it visible on the inside waistband. And I’m definitely more of a shorts-suit person than anything more grown-up, so Will actually wear this lot.

Friends, I just remembered about the time Liz Truss, as justice minister, told Parliament that they were training patrol dogs to bark drones out of the air.
