Mirra! Look! A hoodie! I’m finally on the hoodie train. I’ve made them for my husband but this is my first hoodie. Despite my 2018 New Year’s Resolution to make myself more weekend-wear, I’ve continued to make more office-wear. Finally, something comfortable just for me. And I wore it to the office, so there. This
My husband lives in hoodies. I’m constantly out to find him the best hoodie. My latest attempt to please him is the Rebel Raglan from Wardrobe by Me. He really likes this one. He says it’s the closest I’ve gotten to his favorite Carhart store bought workwear. It’s a raglan style which makes it a
I snagged this glittery hacci (really! it has glitter) from Stitchin Pretties and I knew it needed a pattern that could match it’s personality. I paired it with a soft black brushed waffle knit from Cali Fabrics. The Below Zero top from G&G is perfect! The fabric and pattern together are such an outspoken combination.
I love the remnant bin and I’m a sucker for a scrap pack. Sincerely Rylee has the best scrap packs! I don’t know what it is about this lonely last yard of fabric on a bolt that makes me want to adopt it. But I end up overrun by scraps and challenge myself to use
The new Aspen from Annelaine Patterns is perfect cozy wear for Fall in a waffle knit or sweater knit. I used Sweater Knit from So Sew English for this version. In a short sleeve, lighter weight fabric, this would be perfect for summer too. I think a cotton lycra would be really great. The best
I made my first Seamingly Smitten pattern and I’m smitten! This is the Joelene turtle neck dress. I love how simple this dress is! It’s a super quick sew and the turtle neck is so perfect for Fall. This version is french terry from Elevated Fashion Fabrics. Below is ponte from The Fab Clique Fabric
Fall is finally upon us. For me that means cowl necks and cardigans! 5oo4 just released a new cowl neck top. I knew I was going to love it because the 5oo4 Nancy Raglan cowl is one of my favorites too (blog post). This is the new Mabel pattern. I has an optional ruffle finish,
What’s more versatile than a sweater pattern that can also be a cardigan? The Halla Autumn Sweater can do that! It can be a hoodie, a cocoon cardigan, a short sleeve dolman like mine, a long sleeve with or without cuffs or even during the sewalong you’ll see it as an off the shoulder sweater!
Fall for me is all about different cardigans over my favorite summer dresses. This one is especially different. The Copeland Cardi (named after a famous ballet dancer) has a tie front option or a ballet-wrap option which I made. The ballet wrap goes around the back and ties on the side. I made the waist
I can’t help it, I just love duster cardigans in the fall. It looks like you’re wearing work clothes but feels like you’re still in your bathrobe. The fabric I used is also super soft. It’s a brushed hacci (sweater knit) from Sincerely Rylee. I also like how it disguises a too tight
