Striking Stripes
Hi! I feel like I am running out of title ideas for striped stuff… as well as stuff that involves ties! So here is the newest Itch to Stitch pattern Tustin which has both! As you know, I have been testing for Itch to Stitch for a while now and this was another test. To…

A Dress
Hi! It’s not the first time it happens that after a long hiatus I suddenly find time for a few posts in a row. So today it is about a dress. One of those that actually were a lot cheaper to make rather than buy. This is a very common misunderstanding that sewing must be…

Italian Celebration
Hi! I “owe” you a handful of news again and every time it happens I think about how much work a proper influencer job is, keeping the followers attached and entertained on a daily basis! My trip to Rome was a few weeks ago already and it was a fun one, starting with the celebration…

The Feel Good Dress
Hi! While preparing for the trip I felt that I can be satisfied if I manage to finish one item and eventually managed three! In addition, during what could have been my most productive week in all history, I also made a sweatshirt dress and a set of pajamas as a gift for the kids…

The Hope Dress
Hi! One of the items I made just before the trip to Gran Canaria was the dress that seemingly half of Insta-sewists have made already – the Hope Dress from Style Arc. I remember being quite “meh” about it, but at some point when all of their dress patterns were discounted, I still grabbed one.…

Down The Memory Lane
Hi! I really believed that I had posted something in September, but wow… It has been two months exactly since my last word here! The truth is that I would post so much more often if I could somehow automatically type my thoughts because usually there is a whole story in my head with each…

A Dress of Two Summers
Hi! As I type this, it is a rather gloomy, windy and cold day outside with occasional rain. We had an abnormally hot June and July and then August has been somewhat of a disappointment. Therefore I look at these photos with a bittersweet feeling as it seems that another summer has come to its…
