Let me just address the elephant in the room first, yes I shamelessly copied Ray Stitch for this project. A while ago, they posted this photo on Instagram and I knew I had to have that dress in the same fabric - because apparently my obsession with yellow/mustard/gold isn't going anywhere anytime soon. So, let's … Continue reading McCall’s M7948 Pattern Review
Hi everyone, hope you're all well. Today's post is just going to be a quick one. So, a while ago The Fabric Guys contacted me and asked if I was interested in doing a collab with them. This maxi skirt tutorial is my first project with them. When I first knew that they had Indonesian … Continue reading Batik Pleated Maxi Skirt Tutorial
Hello my fellow stitchers, hope you're all enjoying your weekend. I'm here today to tell you about my just finished project; another Gemma Tank. I reviewed this pattern a few weeks ago, if you recall, but I didn't change anything to it. This time I made a couple of changes, namely changing the bias binding … Continue reading Gemma Tank – Made by Rae | Pattern Hack – All-in-one Facing with Burrito Method
Hello hello hello... Hope you're all doing well. I finally have a finished sewing project to share with you today, hurray! I actually finished making this dress about two weeks ago, but the combination of gloomy days (meaning I couldn't get decent photos) and fighting off a persistent cold was no joke. But anyways, let's … Continue reading Ivy Pinafore – Jennifer Lauren Handmade | Pattern Review
Hi everyone... I guess it is rather obvious that I'd lost my sewjo for a while, sorry for the lack of content the past couple of months. To be honest, I wasn't even trying to get my sewjo back, I knew I needed the break. I think it's good (for me) to walk away for … Continue reading Gemma Tank – Made by Rae | Pattern Review
Hi everyone, hope you're all enjoying your weekend. I'm back today with another remake post. I'm going to be honest with you, I'm having the worst remake kick. All I want to do right now is to play with the patterns I already own. I am not exactly on a self-imposed pattern ban, but I'm … Continue reading Return of the New Look 6217
A while ago, I made a pair of Winslow culottes in view B (knee-length version). As much as I loved them, I was still coveting longer version. When Atelier Brunette came out with the new fabric collection and as soon I saw them, I knew I was going to have my culottes in one of … Continue reading Winslow Culottes – Helen’s Closet | Remake
As I have mentioned in the previous post, I had been working on the Pietra pattern by Closet Case Patterns the past two weeks. I have made the shorts and the trousers. But the trousers are not going to appear here, it is a project I am doing for Minerva Crafts - I'll let you … Continue reading Pietra Shorts – Closet Case Patterns | Pattern Review
You know, I was thinking the other day whether or not it is worth it for me to write a review of this pattern. I mean, who's not made it, right? It seems to me like everyone and their mother have made multiples of this pattern. And now that I've made both versions - the … Continue reading Kalle Shirtdress – Closet Case Patterns | Pattern Review
I know, I know... I promised a full review of the Kalle, but I still haven't finished the project yet. We got back from our mini break on Friday and you know how it is, after holiday you do all the laundry. So that's what I've been doing - how exciting, eh? But that wasn't … Continue reading New Look 6217 – Top | How to finish neckline and armholes with bias binding
