Happy Halloween! It looks like it is one of those times when a mom really can get it all together really fast. Eva told me last summer that she wanted to be Aurora for Halloween this year. And even if that made me do some research and get a pattern for it... the dress didn't happened mostly because no fabric seemed right enough for what I had in mind and some details I didn't had sorted....Last 2 months also been quite busy and have been out of town and various other events so I just thought that she could just wear a nice white princess dress she got for a wedding last week. But talking to her last night to sort the outfit she seemed really disappointed in the dress and was so confident that mom can just make her a dress over night that I decided to try... "Don't worry mom! You can make it!"<br />
I used <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/250233521/playground-to-palace-dress-a-princess?ref=hp_rv-2">Playground to Palace Dress</a> I have bought from etsy. I had the pattern printed but not taped or cut. So I had to start really low. Lucky that pattern is fairly easy and really nice explained.<br />

Ar first I thought I would make her a blue dress from some nice lace I had but the fabric seemed a bit to heavy for the long gathered skirt I had in mind so at the last minute switched to a dusty pink combo of fancy knits I had. I think It was a really good choice as the fabric was so much easier to work with and I think is looks very cute and delicate on Eva. I remembered I had some white lace accessories and used one for necklace. It might be a bit too big for her small figure but I think it adds a really nice touch to the dress. I also used a nice pink lace ribbon for the hem.<br />
As it is not summer any longer I added some sleeves to the dress with tight long cuffs so it will not bother her during the day.<br />
I cannot believe I did it in time. But I am really glad I try it. I love it. Is so sweet and delicate and so much better in my opinion then the satin ones available to buy. Even more happy to see Eva face light up in the morning when I gave her the dress...<br />

This summer I ripped one pair of RTW pants and made a new one using the old as pattern. I was quite pleased with the result and determined to do more. So I have made 2 more pairs. I kept thinking what top would be best with this pants and had a few favorites in past patterns but in the end decided to try a new one - Style arc harmony top:<br />

The first version I did as actual pattern. It was not bad but the neckline is a bit too high and the dart also should hit a bit lower for me. The pants are in a stretchy fabric this time so I took them in a bit in the upper part and used silk for pockets lining. It was a real pain to work with it but feel like it worth it every time I put my hand in the pocket and get a nice feeling there.<br />

I was very happy I managed to finish this combo in time to submit it for <a href="https://sewing.patternreview.com/cgi-bin/ContestGallery.pl?ContestID=330">Pattern Review Match Your Shoes Contest</a>. I only managed to get phone photos on the last day of the contest with my son behind camera as I was on a family trip that week but I was happy I finally managed to submit something and felt a bit like my old self.</div>

The pockets are along the entire waistline in the front and I think I like them very much like this. More stable , less gapping. I used french seam for them and added pocket facings after. </div>

The second pair of pants done in a vivid neon salmon color with waffle texture is a bit larger as the fabric was more stiff and no stretch. They feel quite great. The top is a floral cotton batiste. Very very light fabric. Maybe a bit too light for this top. I did it very slightly larger and fixed the neckline and the dart. The neckline and the ruffles on the sleeves are finished with self bias fabric. Love this finishing. Both tops are longer then the pattern.<br />

And some small eye candies in the end. My daughter sow some hair bands with bows in the store she really liked but the fabric from with they were made was really crappy so I promised her I will make some better myself. For two weeks she kept asking when will I make her bows so here they are. Really cute. I have so many fabrics I should make more.<br />

The pink pants fabric is from this summer. I only did one "fabric shopping trip" and bought 5 or 6 fabric and happy to say that 3 of them are already sewn. The other 3 fabrics ( the blues ) are from last summer crop. Feels like my stash is going just a little bit down but I still have so many fabric ... I need to find some way to donate some and be a bit more picky when I buy!Georgiahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06972029287872749366noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5244469611060222035.post-87605013607825009622019-08-09T12:48:00.001+03:002019-08-09T12:48:20.881+03:00Long sleeved dresses for my daughter - from earlier this year<br />

Long time no sew ... A lot of people asked how did I sew so many items with so many other things going on in my life. I always thought is my desire and love for sewing that kept me going but taking a small break I understand a new detail. Sewing constantly keeps you in shape. Warmed up. After a small break even easy projects seem impossible to start let alone finish... My son started school last fall and I wanted to spend a little more time with the kids, do more projects with them, teach them how to read, paint with them... I also did quite a bit of work in our country backyard painting the kids wook house , the fence and anything that I could get my hands on. I don't have a talent for drawing but that didn't stopped me :))<br />

I terribly missed sewing though. We had a few free days free at the end of last month with the kids being away on vacation with the grandparents and I knew I just have to get something done. I went shopping for fabric, not that I needed any but usually buying new fabric always gets me into sewing mood ... On of the fabrics I picked was this beautiful pink brocade and I decided I wanted a fancy pair of pants. I usually buy my pants but the one in the stores are so boring.. I had quite a bit of experimenting with pants patterns from style arc last summer/fall and I was getting close to making some I really love but this time decided to take another route. I ripped out one of my favorite RTW pair: - you can see some pictures with it <a href="https://georgiasew.blogspot.com/2018/08/summer-blues-great-match-stylearc-amber.html">here</a><br />

I cut them one night after a long day working in the backyard installing a new ground pool for kids return and managed to sew them in small sessions over the next 2 days.<br />

I had a lot of reserves over this but the fabric is really nice and all their imperfections are easy to hide with a longer top as are most of mine. And I am pleased to say that I wore them a lot since then and love them so much I will try to make at least one or 2 more pairs as I have so many pants fabrics stashed over the years...<br />
The day I had to do the finishing touches I was alone with Eva so I made a deal with her. If she will allow me to hem my pants I would make a doll dress for one of her dolls.<br />

Here is what I did for her very quick and dirty... this doll was usually headless thrown somewhere in a box. Since she had a new dress Eva got her in her bag for two weeks or so and took her everywhere with her. that made me think that maybe I should start sew more doll clothes.Georgiahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06972029287872749366noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5244469611060222035.post-72278983270959398842018-12-07T15:32:00.001+02:002018-12-07T15:33:54.247+02:00Top and cardigan to match my new boots<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I Think there is no secret that I love things that are a bit different. That makes you feel unique. So I was very happy when I got a new pair of boots last fall. Just love them:<br />

Yellow is not exactly my color but I love the print and the bright colors and the pairing with teal green. I have a pair of dark green jeans that work great with them, I have a <a href="https://georgiasew.blogspot.com/2018/07/totally-lost-count-on-butterick-6492.html">Butterick 6492</a> that also works great and my winter fluffy coat has green/yellow/cream, but still not many things in my wardrobe work with them. so I decided I need a few additions.<br />
I first did a Style Arc Madeleine top that I had 2 muslins and some alterations done at the end of the summer and never actually got to make it and thought it would be great pattern for a solid:<br />

I added sleeves to the pattern and tweak it a bit to better fit me.<br />
And I also had a teal-green tweed that matched the boots so nicely and decided to make a quick mccalls 6844 cardigan to wear at work when I get cold:<br />

I went with the same changes as in the <a href="https://georgiasew.blogspot.com/2015/04/scalloped-navy-blue-jacket-mccalls-6844.html">navy scalloped version</a> - minus the scallops.<br />
Here is the result:<br />

This fall we have been hit with a big change. Both kids have to start wear some sort of uniforms. That limits my creativity so so much.<br />
I was really disappointed with what was asked to buy. The polos shirt had such an awful fit . Look at those shoulders and is 60% poly blah blah blah. That that short ...<br />

At first I bought her some simple polo navy shirts that were fitting better and were cotton not recycled polyester. I love the idea of recycling plastic bottles to make fabric but not for items for kids that go directly on the skin... And made 3 ruffle skirts ( that also have shorts built in underneath) to coordinate with them and found an etsy seller to digitize the kindergarten logo for to so I can embroider the shirts:<br />

After doing Andrei's costume this year Eva asked me every day last 2 weeks when will her costume be ready! I had this little red riding hood idea and she loved it as she loves the story and often plays Red with her toys but I had so little free time lately and this pattern had a lot of pieces and fabric to juggle! If she had not been so insistent I don't think I would have made it!<br />
She need it this morning and I was up till 3 AM last night sewing it! She insisted I put her to sleep and not her dad and I told her that if I do that I might not be able to finish her dress! When she got up in the morning and her dress was ready she was so happy that the fairies come by last night to finish it!<br />
I used McCall's 7546 pattern for it:<br />

The hood is rather simple and quick but the dress took quite a bit of effort!<br />

Various red fabrics from my stash (quite proud of myself of not going fabric shopping for this one even if my fabrics didn't coordinate perfectly like I want them to)! Mostly cotton! And a few white trims left from my sister in law wedding dress sewing! I used embroidered cotton batiste for petticoat:<br />

I did wider straps for more coverage and add an embroidered flowers trim over it to make it a little different! Used the same trim as waistband as well!<br />
Added the long sleeve addition from another view as the weather is not exactly warm at this time of the year! used some white lace at sleeves hem.<br />
Trying to make my own florence for the neckline with the pattern piece from another view but I don't quite like the end result here - a bit too wide and stiff...<br />
I added horsehair band in the skirt hem so it will get a bit more volume less chances she will step into the skirt while she walks!<br />
She is so precious in her new costume:<br />

Halloween is not big here. It is an imported holiday and is just commercial and superficial ... but there have been a few events for kids on kindergarten and school and dressing up is so fun for the kids. Previous years I got by with store outfits but this year I asked Andrei what he wants to be. His answer was Slender Man and took me by surprise. I was not quite aware that he was over superheros! I told him I don't think I can put together a slender man costume in less then a week and asked him to keep thinking and showing him options I could buy! He rated almost all the costumes available as childish and didn't got much interest in any untill from search to search he got to some adult grim reapers and zombies costumes with nice make-up and then his face light up, literally! So considering what he liked and what I thought I could do in a short time frame he choose to be death! There were some cheap satin robes I could buy but they all look so cheap and ill made and unattractive! So I decided to make the robe myself!<br />
I considered a few robes patterns but none looked exactly right to me. Even if I had little time I lost a lot of it choosing a pattern and a fabric!<br />
In the end I decided to draft the robe myself starting from a hoodie pattern from Ottobre. I just love the front cross over hoodies they have - looks stylish and covers the neck nicely:<br />

I changed the shape of the hood to trail on the back a bit and slashed the sleeves for more drama. I went for a A-line maxi dress with it and the heavy twill I choose was so so perfect for it! I could not believe how well it draped in this fabric and how reached it looked compared to the cheap satin ones!<br />

To make it a little different I added black and white striped batiste lining to the hood and sleeves! Great effect!<br />

I bought professional latex makeup for him but his party at school started very early in the morning with his classes and also thought he might to be comfortable with all that makeup so on the last minute replaced make-up with a cheap plastic mask he could take off at any moment. We trayed some latex masks as well who were better looking but he could not stand them over his face! It was nice that his hood covered the neck as well! I also got him a pair of black latex gloves and a skulls necklace! He was pleased with his outfit! And so was I!<br />

I had bigger plans to add some bloody hand embroidery to the robe and a few other creepy elements but never got around to do it! I took great pleasure in seeing how nicely the hood, the shoulders and everything was actually fitting him.Georgiahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06972029287872749366noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5244469611060222035.post-6438944405455081402018-08-31T20:27:00.005+03:002018-08-31T20:30:01.908+03:00Easy burda beach dress and a gathered skirt<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

There were many beach dresses in burda I wanted to try over the years but never go around to trace any of them... probably because the big pattern pieces and huge fabric requirements were scarry. This summer I finally bought 2 burda issues after a long break and seen this design made and looking spectacular on others so decided to give it a try:<br />

It was nowhere near as glamorous on me. I made the smallest version but was still drowning in it.I didn't had enough fabric so I made it shorter out of necessity but because the dress was designed for tall people it didn't looked shorter on me. Maybe for the same reason I hate that the bat sleeves end on my hip rather then my waist as I think it should. I cut down a bit of the sleeves fullness and added a patch pocket. I had to really push myself to finish it as the 1st try out was a big let down.<br />

When we returned from the seaside I had the inspired thought to ask my mother in law if the wants to try it and even if the is several numbers bigger then me the dress was fitting her and looking way better then on me. So in the end I was quite happy to have someone wanting it.<br />
I had so little time in energy lately for sewing but when my sister was visiting me one evening and said she wanted a simple gathered skirt I could not resist the temptation to get rid of one my stash fabrics:<br />

I used zig zag over the elastic waistband to make sure skirt will stay even spread at all times. I used the waistband only large enough to pass the hip not the full hem size to reduce the bulk. That took a bit of extra time to first and sew the 2 pieces together. The skirt has 2 panels but I managed to make the side seams pretty invisible!<br />
I also got a picture of a simple Lekala 4177 white top i made my mother in law this spring:<br />

Like I said before sewing The StyleArc amber top is quite addictive and it require little fabric so it a great option for busting a few smaller 1 meter cuts.<br />

So while I was flipping through my stash looking for fabrics I got my hands on this beautiful rayon I ordered from China on AliExpress this spring. It had a really nice feel to the touch and I really loved it. I think they still have it in stock <a href="http://s.aliexpress.com/JZj6ZjyQ?fromSns=Gmail">here</a> and it is free shipping if you don't mind waiting a lot for it to arrive. In Romania any import under 10$ or so is free of import taxes for I only ordered one meter.<br />

I was a bit disappointed when it arrived because the colors were a bit darker then the picture they posted - that white is more ivory and the blue is darker than this. I also was under the impression the print will be larger than it was but still it is a lovely fabric with a great feel and a color scheme I just love. So seeing it I immediately thought this will make a perfect amber top but I wanted some interest and the blocking offered by the pattern was not what I was looking for. I felt this top needs some interest in the sleeve and that front and back needed to be left alone just to showcase the fabric.<br />
The design 119 from burda 07/2018 already got me intrigued but seeing <a href="http://www.ellensewing.com/2018/08/orange-flower-top.html">the lovely top Ellen made</a> convinced me I really need to try this sleeve so I traced the 3 pieces for sleeve from Burda:<br />

The front of the sleeve fit in with the style of arc top without any issues ( size 8 on the top and 36 on the sleeve). As the back in Burda is a really low cut the back sleeve didn't fit in with the back top so I had to improvise and add a small triangle of fabric to the sleeve to match the back as well.<br />

If I will make this again I will used the style arc sleeve for the upper part and just lengthen that with the burda piece instead of using the full burda sleeve like I did.<br />

I really love this blouse and I think will be in heavy rotation:<br />

I have been so busy sewing last few weeks that my sewing is way ahead my photographing and reviewing. I love to keep track of everything I make but this is a problem I love to have... so I will try to quickly catch up on some not so glamorous sewing I have done lately.<br />
So after a long time of burda break I finally went back to it and bought the last 2 issues. I wanted to try the <a href="https://www.burdastyle.com/pattern_store/patterns/capris-072018">Capris 07/2018 #102</a>. They looked so cute on the model:<br />

The good news is that they are a really easy and quick sew. The bad part is that they don't have pockets and I didn't bother to add them. I really should have!!! And I don't think those ties are as cute and comfy on me. But the fabric I used is really pleasant to wear so I thought this might make a good backyard pair of pants so I was looking on making a top to go with it. I think I am slowly becoming a big Style arc fan. I had the <a href="https://www.stylearc.com/shop/pdf-sewing-patterns/amber-woven-blouse-pdf/">Amber blouse</a> ordered and already did a simpler quick version and was very pleased with the fit so decided that my fabrics are perfect to make the full design.<br />

So here it it my new set. Not sure about the style and the lack of pockets but love the colors and the fabric feel. I still have some simple blue fabric so maybe I can make one more pair of pants to go with my top. I wanted of some point to use pippingtoo and was to lazy to make mine and foolishly believed a red one will look cute. But after seeing it in the back and the extra thickness it added I decided to drop it while it was not too late. Maybe I should go back and unpick that one too but I really don't feel like doing it. I would rather make a new amber. Quite a catchy design to make!<br />

I think it is really important for this top to be done in a soft drapey fabric and the one used for applique to be lighter or at least just as light and fluid as the main fabric. I was lucky for this set as my two fabrics were purchased together were technically the same:<br />

The next set is a last week production. I really wondered how will the StyleArc luna stretch pants will hold with zero stretch fabric if I add some ease to it. So I added around 3 cm to each of the 4 big panels from waist to hip and then gradually lessened it to zero as I went to the knee so the lower leg is not wider than the original. The extra waist width I transformed it into 2 darts and in the back and 4 small pleats in the front. Once again the small pleats in the front got me rid of all whiskers and artifacts so my mommy tummy needs some adjustments to better fit in similar to the ones I did with my blue pair. Suck a happy accident and discover :). The top is my first version of the amber blouse in simple drapy fabric. I probably should have ironed it a bit more before taking pictures but the fabric wrinkles really easily and I will wear it in the backyard at the countryside where comfort is the only rule and I don't think anyone will be checking my ironing.<br />

Last day of the month so last minute stripes and polka dots... I have 2 more polka dots entries and one stripes pants already finished but I will not review them in time ... Anyway this entry was started a while ago and I loved the way this 2 fabrics looked together...<br />

I got an easy choice for the top to make one more striped Lekala 4511. I was so in love with the big stripes in black and white that I really wanted to see a softer version of the same idea.<br />

And the only thing I didn't 100% love in ty black and white version was the side seam that did looked a bit to random so I decided there is time for one more alteration to my beloved Lekala pattern and a new twist for it. I put the back and side front panels together without the seam allowance and created 2 new pieces out of it with lines that made more sense to me:<br />

The pants on the other hand were a totally different story. The only pants I sewed that I wore a lot were the Eleonore pull on jeans. And this summer I made like 5 pairs that I still have to review but somehow none of them were 100% right too and my favorite pants are still RTW. That felt like a slap in the face. I want my favorite pants to be made by me. So I decided to get on a quest of trying out some new pants pattern and find my pants. From some of the Eva pants I was left with a desire of front pleats. They look so damn good on her. So I got myself the Christia pants from StyleArc... I couldn't find at the time any review of those but I really liked the design lines and the sketch fit :<br />

I didn't looked hard on reviews and the general opinion seemed to be that the charts are right and there were no big issues with the fit. I studied their charts and I was around size 10 for pants and for top so I just ordered size 10 and made it as it was. I might have thought at some point that some pieces felt a bit big but I kept telling myself that I only been sewing this style for Eva so of course mine were looking big compared to what I was used too.. I didn't expected to have no adjustment to make but I didn't expected this either:<br />

They were just huge! huge! more huge than my PJs! I believe that I would need at least 2 sizes down, maybe even 3 if fabric has some give! I was furious! I was humiliated! I haven't failed that big in a long time! I started to read more and look for answers! I finally found Sigrid review and they do seem larger than their skinny model but still nowhere as bad as mine. In my folly I even emailed StyleArc but they didn't bother to respond me in any way! I considered grading them down myself or ordering a new size but both didn't really seemed to worth. The logic thind would have been to never order a StyleArc again but I guess my sock was to big and I wanted answers more then anything so I did the exact opposite from what was expected. I ordered a new StyleArc : the Luna stretch pattern. This was asking for stretch and the only way that made any sense to ask for is there is a close fit or negative ease involved.<br />

I was also ready to go 2 sizes down but after reading the charts again and flat measure the pattern piece this time I decided that just one size down should do it.<br />
I was pretty much expecting a lot of things to go wrong this time but what I didn't expected was nearly perfection! This was definitely the pattern I was looking for!<br />

This one felt just right to me! Not too tight but not too baggy! Just a few drag lines that could be improved, a waistband and replace those fake pockets with real ones!<br />
Luckily I had 3 meters of pink polka dots fabric so failing the first pair didn't cost me my plans but now I didn't had more fabric to waste to I wanted to test my alterations on a different pair before cutting my polka dots one so I added pocksts to the Luna pants from the Christia pants - really liked those big front pockets they have and they were close by.<br />

This is the result pair. I kind of rushed it a bit but it looks really cool and wore it for work already is is so comfortable I could not believe. I had a good feeling about this pattern more and more.<br />

I used the chance to finally wear my refashioned white flats from last summer that were totally worn out and used ElizabethMadeThis idea to use leather paint and give them a new shiny look. It took a while to get 3 layers of blue in and 2 of paint protection but I really love the result:<br />

So my pleats were a bit awkward but not a complete failure so maybe I can try again to tune them. The pocket cut out was too big, way too big so I completely redrafted those...<br />

On my blue pants I got lazy and cut the whole pocket bags from main fabric and the thick lines are showing in a non flattering way... so this time I really used thin pocket bags and facings. So cheerful and so much better the pain boring white in RTW:<br />

Even if my bottom is not that big and I can make do with pull ons I really prefer a front zipper to my pants so I did that. It was easy to adapt, specially since the pants already has the extensions added for the fake fly.I also thought it would be fun to make the zipper shield in flowery fabric. Not the most professional look but definitely different and personal :P<br />

I really wanted welts in the back and found <a href="https://threadtheory.ca/blogs/tutorials/welt-pocket-tutorial">this amazing tutorial</a> on Thread Theory. I did a quick one to check if I got it all right and and I was good to go:<br />

I did a fake dart to get a more tailored look and then took it all very slow. I was lucky to find a marker in close color who seemed to write only on interface and not show on the front. It was all so much more easy with the lines there<br />

I used the same fun flowery thin cotton for pocket bag. I don't remember last time I had real welts on my pants. A lot of RTW have it but they are all fake. If I don't like the real thing I figure I can always stitch it down to a fake one.<br />

I immediately thought of this beloved pattern and though it will be a perfect opportunity to create a new tee. I had a black and white version desire for 2 years or more when I made the last black and white version of this pattern and it was one of my favorite tees ever.<br />

So 2 nights ago I cut my first SytleArc pattern. I was way too tired to start sew it but still in the mood to sew something so I used one Burda Capris 07/2018 #102 that I just tested during the weekend and found way to large but also comfy ( I will have those photographed at some point I hope...):</div>

For this project I wanted a long legg and not as full as the ones I got using straight size 38. So I used the hem line from design 101 and added about 2 inches ( 5cm ) more. I reduced a lot of the fullness and also eliminated the side seam both accomplished buy overlapping the 2 pattern pieces and flat measure the leg width until I got that I wanted. (To be able to easily pull them on but nothing more than that). The ties also had to go. They are cute but not for the long length.<br />
Those went together really quick and the felt good to me so decided to make a matching top from the leftover piece. After trying on a few tops I own I decided a peplum one could work so I pulled out Simplicity 1539:<br />

And I cut view E with short sleeves and no bow. Also got the peplum a bit longer. I barely had enough fabric for it all but I did it... I did most of the set that same evening/night and then some finishing touches yesterday and now I am wearing a new outfit.<br />
I am not 100% sure how I feel about the look, but I really like the fabric - it is very pleasant to wear and the whole design is comfortable so it might work for me<br />

I was really involved with dots and lines this months but I still want to catch up on a few other projects. I know I have made more than 10 of those but I am really wearing them daily and feel great in this design. Perfectly comfortable to wear, pockets and a bit unusual:<br />

This time I used a stable jersey with mig motifs print and a slight 3D texture.<br />
I picked some sort of necklace line around the front opening :<br />

Continuing with that like of print didn't seemed that great for the lower front so I used The seaming on the front piece to turn the fabric 90% and change the print for the lower part. I was able to match the big circular motif quite well that you can easily be deceived there is not a seam there:<br />

I also used circle for pockets but I think I should have better used the motif from the back inserts.<br />

I really liked the <a href="http://georgiasew.blogspot.com/2018/07/fairy-wings-jumpsuit-for-little-miss.html">hearts jumpsuit</a> I made for Eva and i wanted to make one with 3/4 leg length and since this month theme is stripes and polka dots and Eva already had 2 dots dresses made for her I thought it might be fun to play with some stripes this time.<br />
I decided to use the same upper part from Ottobre 3/2018 #10 - fairy wings dress and the leggs from Ottobre 3/2015 #14 - <span style="background-color: white; font-family: "verdana" , "arial" , "helvetica" , "sans serif"; font-size: 14px;">Passerine Overall.</span><br />

I also added a vent and a bow to the hem.<br />
I made the wings larger than the pattern.<br />
It didn't turned out as great as in my mind but I think is kind of cute and fun:<br />

So the <a href="http://georgiasew.blogspot.com/search/label/Ottobre%20%203%2F2018%20%2310">Fairy wings</a> pattern from summer Ottobre was a real hit and of course as soon as I find a new style for Eva I get intrigued by it of me. I found <a href="https://www.lekala.co/catalog/blouses/pattern/4261#model">Lekala 4261</a> that is incredible close:<br />

I still have a lot of free patterns won with weekly contest from Lekala so I got it ordered as soon as I realized is the same style as Eva's. The nice thing about moving with work downton is that I have a big copy shop on close walk distance and I could get a A0 print right away. It is only one page if you skip the 1st and last page that have nothing to do with the pattern.<br />
I thought it might be fun to play with some stripes and see it done in stripes. I had some colorful cotton batiste that looked delicious, was really comfy to wear and it should have no pull if I doubled the ruffle.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
What I didn't take into account was how easily it shifts because it is so thin. And then the joy of matching stripes with a shifting piece... I didn't hated a fabric this much while sewing since I worked with silk....<br />
The pattern repeat was quite big and the stripes uneven so it took me a while to decide on the fabric placements.<br />

And cut the back on bias. I realized kind of late I will not have enough fabric for back pieces so I pieced the back as well:<br />

This is the result. I find it kind of cute but the fabric might be a bit to thin for it. I am tempted to give it a second try.<br />

When polka dots and stripes contest was getting close I was looking for some fun fabric to work with and I found this really fun polka dots fabric:<br />

The black and white always looks good and just a little fun with those roses and color reverse border. The fabric was 100% cotton with zero stretch and not the best drape so it was a bit challenging deciding on a pattern to go with. But then I remembered Butterick 5980. I think this pattern will work with any fabric and it looks so so cute in all versions I made before:<br />

I found out that the 2 straps are pretty close in length and width so I thought it might me fun to use the Vogue ones this time and maybe the neckline embellishment idea as well. I played around with petals and vines variants and I am not sure I found the perfect one in the end but is still so cute:<br />

On previous versions of this dress I put lining and tulle underskirt under this dress and I was ready to do that again as it gives a nice fullness to the dress but this fabric was so light and breathable that I just added a self drafted facings to the neckline and let it simple.<br />
I added a ruffle trim to the hem that I think it goes great with this dress.<br />

After looking at the photos and reading reviews of the vogue pattern a few more times I redid the vines positioning shortening them to one side and making them curl on the flower side as well:<br />

My mom was definitely impressed with the dresses my managed to pull off for the wedding. I think she started to see me in a different light. Like I can really sew something else then kids outfits! Something that is really desirable over RTW. She had her 40 years college reunion at the end of June and she asked me for a dress. She said she wanted to show all her college friends what her daughter can do. And then say that it is just a hobby and she is actually an accomplished engineer...<br />
She has been wearing some of my makes and I constantly shift to her the ones that turn up to large for me but she never asked me to make her anything before. So it was kind of a big deal. The timing was terrible. I had almost zero sewing time at that point the time frame was short and she could only come for a short visit... I almost told her no a few times and even though she said it was OK I could clearly see in her eyes that she was hurt and disappointed. Something like I made time for everyone else but her... So I pushed through it I convinced her to let me try whatever I think it is OK - pick the fabric the pattern the details and maybe I can make it in time.<br />
I picked my best fabrics for the dress. I really really loved this piece of sequins of beads that is probably the most expensive fabric I ever got - around 200$/meter and a lace I also picked at the time to match it.<br />
I really loved the Butterick 5778 and I had a few muslins for it that my mom could try on and I could decided on a size:<br />

The pattern envelope didn't looked like much but after the first mockup I knew this could be a real gem:<br />

The beads and sequins fabric might have been better with a simpler design but I wanted this one. I had to clean up all the edges so I can sew it up on my machine. I contemplated the idea of sewing it by hand but it didn't seemed like a good one. So I spent a long time just preparing the edges.<br />
As I expected I didn't had it ready by the time my mom's visit was done but i had it far along to have a try out and see if it was a hit or miss:<br />

And I was really happy to see that the colors, the design and the fabric looked terrific on her. So she made an effort as well and made another trip just to have the dress finished few days before the event:<br />

I was happy to hear she wore my dress for her class reunion and got many compliments on it and then she wore it to a wedding next weekend.<br />
This time I added an elastic waistband covered in lining and lace to get a better definition for the waistline. After sewing the front bodice seams I sewed beads and sequins over it and now it looks seamless. It was a bit of time consuming but it was well worth it. There were also some bad gappings in the back at the armholes so I just made some small pleats to fix that and covered them in beads after to make them invisible.<br />

<b><u><i>3 things about myself</i></u></b>:<br />
<br />
1. I don't drive. I got my license at 18 but I consider myself way too distracted to be careful on the road, too scared, too lazy !?! not sure why... I just always felt I have no talent for driving so I let my licence expire and never renew it...<br />
2. I always dreamed to sew but it was more like the astronaut kind of dream... I never thought it will really happen. When I got my sewing machine after a few years of having my own money I had no idea how much you can learn by yourself - it was more like buying an expensive toy just because you can now afford it.<br />
3. I payed a lot of World of Warcraft at some point. I was totally addicted. Sewing was a cure for that.<br />
<br />
<b><i><u>Ellen's questions for me :</u></i></b><br />
<b><i><u><br /></u></i></b>
<i><b>1. What do you do to cheer up your partner?</b></i><br />
It may depend a lot on the situation. But most of the time I love to make fun of a bad situation and pretend it is really cool! Other times I love to reply to him with some of the twisted answers kids give to us. It is so fun sometimes to use their words!<br />
<b><i>2. If I ask you to sing spontaneous, what song would that be?</i></b><br />
I went into the shop one day to get an ice cream treat<br />
Cause ice cream is my favorite <i><b>pink</b></i>, my favorite <i><b>pink</b></i> to eat<br />
So many different kinds to try<br />
So many kinds to see... ( Eva's version, she is the singer in our family and I just have to play along)<br />
<b><i>3. Your favorite topping on the ice-cream.. </i></b><br />
Caramel.<br />
<b><i>4. What makes you feel uncomfortable..</i></b><br />
Singing. I am a terrible singer. And having to make a phone call! I hate doing that...<br />
<b><i>5. What kind of competition would you like to participate?</i></b><br />
I like competitions in general. I think they help me push my limits. I used to compete in Math and Physics in school and now I love joining friendly sewing contests on Pattern review. The one that is on right now <i><b>"stripes and polka dots"</b></i> it's so much fun. I have a hundred ideas I one to get done for it....<br />
<b><i><u><br /></u></i></b>

My favorite makes are the ones I do for the kids - <a href="http://georgiasew.blogspot.com/2016/08/little-lady-in-red-ottobre-jacket.html">this little red outfit</a> was so much worn and loved and so were the jumpsuits for Eva - <a href="http://georgiasew.blogspot.com/2016/06/refashion-men-shirt-lekala-4109.html">refashion</a>, <a href="http://georgiasew.blogspot.com/2017/06/3-new-jumpers-for-eva-ottobre-32015-14.html">last summer</a>, <a href="http://georgiasew.blogspot.com/2018/07/fairy-wings-jumpsuit-for-little-miss.html">fairy-wings</a>...<br />
<br />
For my son my favorite still is the <a href="http://georgiasew.blogspot.com/2015/06/andreis-wardrobe-for-summer-ottobre.html">mini wardrobe</a> from 3 summers ago and <a href="http://georgiasew.blogspot.com/2018/03/little-men-wardrobe.html">this year attempt</a>...Georgiahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06972029287872749366noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5244469611060222035.post-20244193104308770392018-07-10T10:06:00.000+03:002018-07-10T15:25:17.739+03:00Fairy wings jumpsuit for little miss<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Jumpsuits are still my favorite outfit for Eva and she recently added hearts high on her favorites list.So I bought one meter of hearts print on navy rayon with a really nice touch and drape and decided to make a new jumpsuit.<br />
One of this days Eva told me that she can't take the baby out of her belly if she wears a jumpsuit so I might have to take it easy with those!<br />
I had this new fairy wings dress traced out and decided it might be fun to try use that bodice for the jumpsuit.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

This is actually cut and finished before the polka dots dress version so this is just as I traced it without any modification other then the doubled layer on wings so there is no wrong side to them.<br />

I am so excited about the stripes and polka dots contest and I really want to make an effort and sew a few items for it. Polka dots are one of my favorite print for Eva and stripes are the most expressive when sewing.<br />
I decided to start with some easy projects to warm up and add a few dresses for Eva's summer wardrobe.<br />
I really loved the fairy wings dress in the summer Ottobre this year and I had it treced for a while on paper but still waiting to be used so I used it.<br />

I had about 1 meter of this lovely fabric. it is pure cotton slightly lighter and more drapier the quilting cotton but not much.<br />
The design is a bit boxy! I decided to change the skirt for a 2 bigger ruffles. I made the "wings" wider too .<br />
I was considering replacing the central front panel with a strawberry girl print :<br />

Eva definitely like the print better and I liked the dots so decided to go with a 3rd option and used a frame applique over the dots panel:<br />

I used an etsy design <a href="https://www.etsy.com/transaction/1457677190">available here</a> ... a bit more pricey the others but I thought it was really cute so decided to go with it. It isn't exactly optimized for applique but it worked for me.<br />
I doubled the front and back central panel for a more clean look and to hide any threads from embroidery. I also used self bias for armhole. Love the look this way:<br />

Butterick 5778 was a great gem found. I absolutely loved the <a href="http://georgiasew.blogspot.com/2018/05/the-wedding-dress.html">velvet dress</a> I made for my mother in law and since then I made 2 more special occasions dresses from the pattern for my mother and for my nanny that I still have to review... and a muslin top for me... so I learned a great deal about the pattern.<br />
I left the sleeves out but I put a contrast band to finish the armholes. I also used a contrast stripe to define a waistline - it is slightly shorter then the bodice and is stretchy - it does a wonderful job there.<br />
The skirt is about two meter straight cut and gathered.<br />
She can now go matchy matchy with Eva with the dress I made for her last fall:<br />
