Raglan meets dolman sweater

I love asymmetrical clothing. It might actually be the reason why I love to sew, to create asymmetrical pieces of clothing. When I see an asymmetrical sewing pattern I just have to buy it. When I saw the Miss Heron sweater from Sofiona Designs with the asymmetrical option, I loved it right away. And even...

Skruffle and Bounce

I love the different patterns from The Sewn Edge. I have sewed the Float dress and the Skruffle leggings have been on my sewing list for a while. When I saw a call for testers for the Bounce Sweatshirt I jumped (...) on the occasion. Our eldest is not into sweaters too much but our...

Heart on my sleeve hoodie

After sewing and testing the Rainbow falls dress from Max and Meena*, Jamie (the designer from Max and Meena) posted the idea of the Heart on my sleeve hoodie. I loved the idea of that hoodie right away and knew our girls would too. So I jumped on the possibility to test the new hoodie....

Third Navarro

The Adult Navarro by Stitch Upon A Time* is a very versatile pattern and maybe you didn't recognize all the Navarros that I sewed. I sewed two for our girl and since it is also available for women I sewed one for myself this time. The pattern includes a dress (like I sewed for our...

Let’s Flex, Switch and Shuffle

Unicorn & mermaid sweaters

The sweater season is starting soon, so it was time to start sewing sweaters. I actually already started during our summer in Italy. I used the Mega Max Raglan pattern from Max and Meena Patterns*, which includes a lot of different animal details. You can make a regular t-shirt of sweater with it, or add...

Asymmetrical Ellis sweater from Fibre Mood

There is a new Fibre Mood* released and I got to sew a great sweater from it, the Ellis sweater. The Ellis sweater is very quick sew but stands out because of the split neckband and waistband, such a fun detail! And of course the diagonal colour block is right up my alley. Our girl...

Colour block hoodie with a twist

With the colder weather I have started sewing sweaters, for our girls and for myself. My husband isn't really into hoodies, but after seeing mine, he was doubting, whether maybe he also wanted one for himself. Let me first show you my sweater. I used the Raglan hoodie with a twist from Made by Runi,...
