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.…

Bluebell Dress & Catching Up
Hi! I have so much catching up to do, I don´t know where to start! Since my last post was about a little Estonian girl needing an incomprehensible amount of money for treatment of SMA, I better share the good news. The money (over 2 million US dollars for the medication plus treatment expenses on…

Daddy´s Girl Dress and Sewing Room Update
Hi! You know what they say – there is someone for everyone. There is definitely also a pattern for every fabric that makes it instead of breaks it. This dress is an example of this! My parents brought this fabric from their trip to Italy in 2017, right after our wedding. Actually they brought two,…

Tie (Up Loose Ends)
It is a bit as if 2018 is still going on here 😀 Still things to finish up from last year. If you remember this… … then maybe you also remember I had cut out a tie for my husband to wear on Christmas Day. And I did finish it minutes before we sat down…
