How many dresses are too many?

  • Pepita, my Love!

    Pepita, my Love!

    Hi! There are some colors that always catch my attention and I find it hard to say no to – such as olive/khaki green, navy and some shades of pink – and there are prints/patterns that have the same effect on me – stripes and pepita (aka houndstooth). I feel like any fabric with this […]

  • The Lemon Jacket

    The Lemon Jacket

    Hi! I owe this post since September, actually, but I was hoping to get better photos. I didn`t manage this since of course the days got shorter and shorter and there is the same old problem with daylight in winter. Being really fed up with this, I just ordered a photo booth set and it […]

    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

    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. […]

  • The (First) Jumpsuit

    The (First) Jumpsuit

    Hi! The very last item I finished before my holidays was something that I had never made before – a jumpsuit! I am not even sure why it took me so long to make one since I like how they look on other people (most of the times). Probably one of the thoughts holding me […]

  • Down The Memory Lane

    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

    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 […]

    Vogue 8829 revisited

    Hi! You may remember my recent black embroidered cotton dress and how happy I was with the pattern. In fact, I immediately decided that I will repeat the pattern so soon that I didn´t even put it away from my sewing table. I didn´t have a certain fabric in mind but it came to me […]

  • Black Carrot x Peppermint

    Hi! The kind people at Black Carrot offered me to continue with the sponsored projects and here is the second “fruit” of this collab. I picked an interesting fabric that I had only touched but never used before – viscose ritchel. I don´t know the exact composition but it is nicely cool, flowy and has […]

    Black Carrot Black Dress

    Hi! I didn´t even realize that I didn´t post anything in June! Wow! I blame the extraordinarily warm summer and I have always enjoyed sewing itself more than writing about it so I guess I made my choices last month. If you follow me on Instagram, however, you know that there are a bunch of […]
