Sorrel Dress - Jennifer Lauren Handmade

I tested the Sorriel Dress pattern by Jennifer Lauren Handmade.

My first toile was a bit of a patchwork piece, although, because the pattern on the fabric is so busy, you would hardly notice.  This was fabric I had been given and added to my stash, it was not wide, but there was four meters of it.  I had to make an abdominal adjustment to the front piece of the pattern.

After adjustments were made to the pattern and the toile I made the dress up, twice, in two vintage fabrics I had on hand:

With the green dress I decided to use different buttons in the same colour range as the fabric.  I quite liked the effect.

The second dress was again made out of a vintage fabric:

Amazing how the same pattern can appear different from the choice of fabric.

I enjoyed making this pattern.  It quickly came together, I would recommend it to both the skilled or the novice sewer.

Luckily, I did not have to wait very long to wear both dresses as the weather has quickly become hot over here in Australia.

Happy sewing everyone.

Ottobre Design Woman Spring/Summer 2/2018 3. Vivian

This issue of Ottobre, to put it plainly, is just exciting.  It is so retro, that there is not one pattern in it I dislike.  Combine this with finding fabric that is just right, and you have the perfect match made in heaven.

I purchased this fabric in January this year. I remember it well, it was an extremely hot and uncomfortable day, and I'd just discovered a new fabric store to visit.  The fabric I found was so 1960s in vibe and in my favourite colour - red, that I could not, not buy it.  Downside, there was only enough to make a top.  So when the current issue of Ottobre arrived, I knew exactly what should be made with this.

There is nothing difficult about making this pattern, it's beauty is in it's simplicity.  Use a wild and adventurous fabric, like I did, or tone it down in another fabric.  It is a fun and comfortable top to wear.  I made no adjustments to this pattern.  I just wish I had more of it to make a full dress.  I had just enough to make underwear!

I know I've been quiet for a while.  I got quite ill from bronchitis and felt I had to evaluate how I used my spare time and balance that with work.  Starting a new job has not been easy, but, I think I have it sorted now.

Happy sewing everyone.

S1046 Claudia Godet Style Knit Dress With Flutter Sleeves

Sometimes testing a pattern allows you to discover a pattern company that is reliable with it's sizing.  This is what I like about Sinclair Patterns.

The fabric for this make, I think is a lycra.  I say I think because I still consider my knowledge of stretch fabric to be new to me, up until about a year ago I avoided sewing with stretch fabric, where I could.  That was, until I purchased a coverstitch machine.

Having said that, you don't need a coverstitch for this dress, I just use it for the hems.  Other than that it's largely made on the overlocker.

This dress comes together so easily, I really enjoyed making it, as will you when you try it.  The fabric was purchased from Spotlight Stores, however, has been sitting in my stash for a bit.  This dress will be easy to wear on a hot summers day.  I am currently making a second dress in a black and white stripe (the fabric I used on the side panels in the photos below).

It's on sale until June 10.

Happy sewing everyone.

Ottobre Design Woman Spring/Summer 2/2018 4. Vera

Have you ever received something and thought it was designed with you in mind?

That's how I felt when I received the latest women's edition of Ottobre Design Woman Spring/Summer 2/2018.

The first dress I made from this recent edition is 4. Vera.  I decided that I already had fabric in my stash to complete this task.

What a quick and easy dress to make, and a fun dress to wear.

Extremely easy to make.  I liked a technique it included to add clear elastic to the waist to prevent the waistline from stretching.

A fun and easy dress to make and wear., will be making another.

Happy sewing everyone.

Ottobre Design Autumn/Winter 5/2010. 15. Sherri

I have made this coat before, but, I wasn't happy with the outer fabric I chose, it was a bit light weight.  I wanted to get rid of the coat, but loved my lining so much, and the style of this coat, that I decided that I had to just make it again.

It was with this pattern that I first learnt how to bag a lining of a coat.  It's a wonderfully warm and stylish coat.

Here's my lining:

Can you understand now why I just had to reuse it?

I like Ottobre Design patterns as the fit is good and I sometimes learn techniques I have not tried before.

Happy sewing everyone.

Hacked Skirt pattern - S1071 Sinclair Patterns Moon wide leg woven pull on pants, culottes and shorts

Do you every make up a pattern and think, I like this, but wouldn't it also look good as a .... Well, that happened to me.

After making up the Sinclair Patterns Moon Pants and liking the fit around the waistline, and while I was driving home from work, I had that light bulb moment where I thought, wouldn't this pattern make a great skirt?

However, I had two light bulb moments.  I had a dress that I had made from a lovely linen a friend had given me some time ago.  Initially I made it up into a halter neck dress, wore it once, loved the fabric thought that I'd better make it up into something else.  I took off the bodice and made it into a flared skirt, wore it a couple of times and, I still was not happy with it.

So, what if I could simply alter the Moon pants pattern to become a skirt from what I had left of the halter neck dress/now flared skirt?  So my quest began.

To tell you the truth, the alteration that needs to happen is initially in the pattern.  It's two simple things.

1  Measure the distance between the CF/CB seam to the straight grain:

     In my case the distance was 11.5 cm.  I marked this point at the beginning and end of the straight         grain.

2   I then connected the two points and drew a line:

3   I then folded over the pattern so that I had a new CF (Center Front) and CB (Center Back):

4   Then I placed the CF and CB onto the fold and cut the front and the back piece on the fold.

5   Follow the sewing instructions 1 - 5, as is in the instructions.

6   Skip instructions 6 - 8

7   Follow instructions 9 - 16

I also extended the length of the ties, and I didn't place any interfacing in the ties.

I really like the skirt, and the final version that that this fabric will be made in.

That's it and there you have it the S1071 Sinclair Patterns Moon Skirt (I guess), but I'm sure that Oxana Sinclair could improve on what I've done here.

Happy sewing everyone.

Mamma Can Do It - Fit Pants Pattern Men's

Sometimes on the few occasions I sew for my husband, he can be quite uncooperative when I want to take photos.  Today was this day.  It had nothing to do with the pattern or how it looked.  He just doesn't want his photo all over the internet.  Fair enough.  However, it doesn't help when you are pattern testing for a company.

I was accepted to test the pattern: Fit Pants Pattern Men's - Mamma Can Do It I made it in an unknown knit which had a suitable stretch for this pattern.

What my husband particularly liked about this pattern were the deep front pockets.  His comments were that they were good because nothing would fall out, as so often do with ready to wear clothes in the stores.

He did not want me to add the back pockets unless they had a zip on them like RTW.  Perhaps next time he will get this wish.  Again, he felt that pockets in the back would be useless unless they had a zip otherwise the pockets were there just as a decoration and would not be terribly secure.  Fair comments.

This pattern was very easy to sew, and instructions logical and easy to follow.

This pattern comes in multiple leg width options (skinny, regular and wide) - we chose the regular width, faux fly, multiple length and an optional low rise, there is also a Fit Worksheet to help you make a custom sized pair if you wish!  I made these in a size 41, however, I think I could have sized down.

In my next make of this I would like to find a knit that gives the look of a jeans fabric.

I enjoyed making the pants and would recommend it to you.  An easy sew and I hope your husband or partner is not as fussy as mine!

Happy sewing everyone.

Challenges 2018

So, what's ahead for 2018?  I've alread joined the Goodbye Valentino RTW challenge.  No, that just wasn't enough, was it?  I've also joined the Curvy Sewing Collective, Curvy Year of Sewing.  It didn't end there, I also have been pattern testing.

Even though this is a public challenge, it is also a personal one.  As I have a lot of experience, I am not looking at easy sewing, I want to push my boundaries, try different pattern companies, and try to sew some things that I've always said, "I'd like to try ...."

Jan/Feb - while pattern testing for Sinclair Patterns, I came across another sewer (who I think was pattern testing for another company) who was wearing Winter Wear Designs - Real Deal Jeans.  Since her body type was curvy, I've decided that this will be what I will sew first.  Not that they are difficult to do, just that I haven't tried this company before, I like the look of the pattern, but I probably, normally would steer away from pants because of my tummy region.

I have made them up as shorts and as full length jeans (oops, I missed the first deadline as I got caught up in pattern testing and the weather has been so hot here that I haven't quite done as much sewing as I would like. Oh well, I'II get on board for March/April, in the meantime, here are my jeans and shorts for Jan/Feb:

I found this pattern successful on a number of fronts:

1. After botched surgery and eventually having a double hernia operation as a result of this I find that my tummy hangs so I steer away from wearing any form of pants, so now I have moved towards wearing pants.
2. I have problem solved how to successfully use top stitching thread without it breaking or pulling on the fabric. I have conquered my fear of this.
3. I continue to try and challenge myself and improve my skills.
4. I have altered the width of the pants leg as, although me tummy is big, I am fortunate to have toned legs.  On godsend at least.

Anyhow, hope all is well in your sewing world.

Happy sewing.

Winter Wear Designs - Blithe Blouse and Dress

I first came across Winter Wear Designs patterns, whilst testing patterns for another company.  Another tester was wearing a pattern for jeans that I liked.  My experience with making the jeans encouraged me to try out other patterns with Winter Wear Designs.

I wanted to make a shirt dress and I liked the style of the Winter Wear Designs Blithe Blouse and Dress.  

When travelling to Singapore last December I picked up an indigo print that I thought would work well with this dress. A light weight polyester in an indigo colour with flecks through it.

I was so pleased with the sizing of the jeans I'd previously made, that without checking the sizing on the blouse dress I went ahead and cut the largest size in this pattern.  I just assumed that it would fit me.  (You can see already what's about to come).  I made it up, but could not figure out why it did not fit me across the shoulders, it kept pulling to the back.  It fit me everywhere else, except for the shoulders.

I took out the sleeves, put them back, and then the light bulb moment, maybe I should check the pattern sizing?

BINGO, that's why it didn't fit.  A rooky mistake, never make assumptions.  I blame no one but myself.

I had a busy term last term.  I started a new job, teaching new subjects, that and taking on pattern testing and I wanted to sew patterns that I wanted to sew, and this was one of them, so in a rush I just cut it making assumptions about sizing. Cut it, sewed it ....  lesson learnt.

I will make this shirt dress again.  It is a very nice pattern, despite the pulling at the shoulders looks good one, except now, I may have to loose some weight for it to fit around the shoulders. Oh well.  I like the way the placket comes together.  I learnt some valuable lessons here.

If you are looking for a shirt dress pattern, try this, just don't make the rooky mistake I made!  I definitely will be trying this one again.

Give it a try, I think this pattern would look good with pantyhose and heels or with leggings.

Anyhow, I've moved on from my error.

Happy sewing everyone.

S1071 Sinclair Patterns Moon wide leg woven pull on pants, culottes and shorts

It's April, as it is everywhere in the world, but, it's meant to be Autumn here in Melbourne, Australia.  It's incredibly warmer than usual.  Our usual weather in Melbourne at the moment should be warm, sunny days and cool nights.  Someone needs to tell mother nature that something is wrong.  We haven't had rain in a while.  Maybe I should wash the car - it usually rains after I do that!

I had the pleasure of testing the S1071 Sinclair Patterns Moon wide leg woven pull on pants, culottes and shorts.  At the time I decided on the shorts the weather here was even warmer than it is now and I couldn't bear the thought of a longer pant.  You know how it is when the weather just is too hot for too long, you need clothes that are easy and comfortable to wear.  These pants meet that category exactly.  With easy to follow instructions these pants come together easily.  Their fit is comfortable and an easy sew.

I have an idea for a hack of this pattern, if only I could find that piece of fabric I want to make it in!

I'd recommend making this pattern, they are a pull on pant in a woven fabric from my stash, a type of suiting fabric.

Some background to taking these photos. On the day we took these photos, my husband and I were walking back from grabbing a coffee.  On the way home we passed a second hand store and saw this beautiful hat box, since it had original stickers on it from the 1950s and was in great condition, we picked it up.  We then passed a section where it was quiet and I thought would make a good back drop for my photos.

I also attended the Australian Quilt Convention at the Exhibition Buildings last weekend and to give you an idea of the weather, here's a photo of my favourite fountain:

Anyhow, I'm in my last week of term break, so I better get back to some sewing.

Happy sewing everyone.

Sinclair Patterns S1015 - Elle classic panel pencil skirt with a simple kick pleat

This week I tested the Sinclair Patterns S1015 - Elle classic panel pencil skirt.  I guess what I liked about this panel skirt pattern when I saw it was the possibilities of the different fabrics you could use to make it. This pattern is on sale this week.

Some testers of this skirt used suede, knit and lace.  In most versions that were made, people chose to make the pull on version of this skirt.

I decided, after looking at my scraps from other projects, that I would make the skirt using some of my stretch denim leftovers.  In doing that I chose to make it in the zip on version of the skirt.  In the end I used three different types of denim for the skirt.  It's lucky that I hung onto these, it proves that I'm not going mad because all I can find in stores these days is denim in black, blue and white!   Frustrating.

The only adjustment to the pattern was in the waistband, this was because I was running out of fabric, so I narrowed it to fit onto the fabric.  Besides this, as I said, no other adjustments were made. 

I like the look of the skirt, it fits well, easy to make.

This pattern is released this week and is currently on special.

Happy sewing everyone.

Sinclair Patterns - S1070 Penny Classic Leggings

I know why I stopped making pants/leggings and anything in this genre, I'II share this with you in my next blog post.

This week I pattern tested the Sinclair Patterns - Penny Classic Leggings. 

There was a gap in my wardrobe for a pair of leggings, I usually like wearing a pair either around the house or under a dress, preferably under a dress when I'm out during winter.

I am acutely aware of my fuller figure.  Having said this I am fortunate as my legs aren't fat.

From this pattern I made two pairs of leggings, one that was full length and the other the cropped length.

The leggings come with a comfort band or classic waistband.  I decided to make both pairs with a comfort band. I used a stretch jersey.

What I liked about this pattern is it's ease in sewing.  One pair whipped up within an hour.  So, one gap in the wardrobe has been filled.

I would highly recommend this pattern, the instructions are easy to follow and the pattern so easy to sew.  Besides, the pattern is on sale this week at an introductory price of $6.99.

Happy sewing everyone.
