A Geranium Dress
November 2, 2017
Today I am joining the Geranium Expansion Pack Fall Tour with a version of the Geranium dress made in rayon, my favorite kind of fabric (if you follow me you already know that because I keep repeating myself, haha). This pattern by the über-talented-sewing-superstar Made by Rae is really a.m.a.z.i.n.g. One pattern + an expansion pack = several hundreds of options!!!
Today is all about Inespiration!
October 18, 2017
Today is all about Inês and the incredible makings that she shares on La Folie - Sewing Booth blog and on Instagram. A group of sewing bloggers wanted to express how much Inês is an inspiration to us and to the online sewing community. So, can you see how I was inspired by Inês on this baby outfit? Well, I used Nosh knits (they are the best!) and picked colors that Inês woud pick (blue and black).
The Rushbrook Top
October 11, 2017
I bet you must have seen a lot of beautiful Rushbrook tops and dresses on social media by now. The Rushbroom is the latest pattern by the all.amazing.super.talented Laura of Titchy Threads. After designing several patterns mainly directed to boys she is now starting to work on girls patterns as well! I was so happy! Laura is one of the best pattern makers out there. She makes patterns of such an amazing quality (and by quality I mean well drafted pattern pieces, notches, good grading, great instructions and all the best sewing techniques, no shortcuts, no clumsy "techniques"). Well, today I am joining the Rushbrook Dress& Top pattern tour with the most plain & simple Rushbrook version you will ever see. The pattern offers several options for adding ruffles but my almost-9-year-old-acting-like-a-teenager-already girl didn't want any ruffles. No. Ruffles. She said. Not on the sleeves, not on the placket, not in the bottom of the bodice. No. Ruffles. And this mom obeyed. I think I got a bit really tired of making things for my kids only to be worn a couple of times because they weren't exactly what they liked... So, now I ask and let them choose. And my fun sewing days are over. ahaha

The Hally Dress
August 14, 2017
Oh, hey, I am blogging! :) (I miss blogging, I miss sewing every day...) Summer is still in full swing around here. Usually we have summery days until at least mid October. And sometimes those are the perfect summer days, with the best beach days. So, I am still sewing things for our summer wardrobe. This is my latest make. It's the Hally Casual Dress, one of the patterns available through One Thimble #16, a digital sewing magazine that was out a couple of days ago. I am joining today the official OT16 blog tour, follow along with us to get to know several new PDF patterns and be inspired!
