2024 Beautiful Window Round up!

At G&G, we pour our heart into everything we do—from curating the finest fabrics, patterns, and notions to creating stunning seasonal displays that bring our beautiful bay window to life.

For those of you who can’t visit us in person, we never want you to miss out on the dressmaking inspiration that fills our shop windows. Jo, with her incredible eye for design, imagines each display, and the rest of the team jumps in to craft playful props and thoughtful details.

Together, we make the most of that big, light-filled window to showcase the amazing fabrics, patterns, and kits available in-store. Here’s to another year of creativity and inspiration—thank you for being part of it! ✨

Bright floral spring display

For our spring display, we had vibrant paper lavender stems and delicate garlands cascade from the high bay window ceiling, filling the space with a fresh and cheerful vibe.

The rustic ladder, draped in an array of pretty fabrics, adds a charming touch, while the oversized scissors and tape measure remind everyone walking by that we’re all about sewing. Together, these elements create a bright and welcoming scene that’s ready to celebrate the longer, sunnier days of spring!

The garments in this display perfectly complement the green, lavender, and neutral tones featured throughout the details. We showcased transitional pieces, ideal for those unpredictable weather days, and they quickly became some of the team’s favourites. The standout piece? The stunning Papercut Patterns Aura Dress, made in a gorgeous cotton dobby dash stripe fabric.

Sew your own sunshine summer window

This summer window display was adorned with vibrant sunshine bunting, bright yellow pinwheels, and beach deck chairs, all sprinkled with sunbeams and fabulous sewing trinkets. Jo, the creative mind behind the window, shares her inspiration: “I just wanted sunny summer colours of sunsets, sand, and sea. I like it to make people smile, the sun is shining in G&G.”

We hope this delightful window display brought a smile to your face and inspired you to sew your own sunshine this summer!

From weddings to summer holidays and sunny days out, this window brought a splash of sunshine to inspire a whole me-made summer wardrobe. The showstopper? The stunning Tilly and The Buttons Esti Co-ord, crafted in the gorgeous Palace Blue Geo Viscose Fabric—it’s the very essence of French Riviera chic!

Cosy autumnal inspiration

The details in this window are a palette of natural tones, allowing the fabrics and garments to truly shine. Jo envisioned a display where the beauty of each me-made outfit speaks for itself, making the garments the true stars of the show.

To complement this vision, the team crafted macrame hangings by hand, adding an artisanal touch that enhances the display's organic feel.

The garments in the window beautifully captured the warm tones of autumn, perfectly complementing Jo's cosy theme. Luxurious fabrics like smooth drape tencel twill, vintage-textured cottons, woven jacquards, and bamboo-blended twill added layers of richness and depth to the display. 🍂✨

The standout piece was the Matchy-Matchy Horizon Day Dress, crafted with vintage cotton colour blocks. This combination created the ultimate autumnal look—effortlessly stylish and seasonally perfect!

Twinkly and natural winter scene!

As always Jo has thought of all the special touches needed to really bring this big bay window to life. From wooden bobbins, mini yarn balls and knitting needles and a tape measure garland on the tree to mini pom pom snowball garlands, well stacked presents and the icing on the cake - 12 wonderful wreaths all made by the g&g team!

Wrapped with fairy lights and eucalyptus and finished off with a few pine cones, hessian bow and wooden button, they really bring the twinkly and natural theme to life!

We’re all about pyjamas this time of year—can you tell from our cosy window display and this month’s Sewing Society dressmaking kits? Whether it’s sophisticated loungewear or fancy PJs, we’re loving it all! Our mannequin girls are showcasing the gorgeous Atelier Brunette Le Pyjama and the stylish Closet Core Fran set.

Le Pyjama features a notched collar, grown-on sleeves, and a double elasticated waistband, all with a straight, wide cut for extra comfort.

The Fran set is the perfect blend of tailored details and relaxed fit. The top includes a shirt collar, cuffed sleeves, a back yoke, an inverted pleat, and a button loop at the neck.

We really can't wait to share with you how Jo brings the seasons to life in our window displays next year ❤️
