This is a self drafted top that I hardly wore. So I decided to give it that little spunk it needed🩷🧡

I used a little bit of Rit dye all purpose Tangerine because I wanted that pastel faded look. Quite happy with the result:)

So I've gone a little wild with the colours😅🌈 And I love it!! 

This is a hacked Izzy knit top from @stylearc I used @ritdye for the colours of the top. The double skirt is selfdrafted and made out of scraps. I always get a little down in the winter, but these kind of colourfull sewing projects lift my spirits! Definitely not on team sad beige mum😂

Woooohoooo! I made perfectly fitting pants with an Woooohoooo! I made perfectly fitting pants with an invisible zipper. Two big firsts in my sewing life💙

These are the #winslowculottes by @helens__closet I love the big square pleats, the clean finish that you get with an invisible zipper and the variety provided by the different lengths. I just love everything about it🤩

This was actually meant as a toile, i made the culottes with 2 euro fabric from a thrift store. But this is a keeper😻 I've had so many issues with pants and especially the crotch. I almost wanted to give up on sewing pants. But after listening to the pants episode of @lovetosew.podcast
I decided to carry on! I read the blogs Helen and Caroline advise in the podcast, and just started trying out tips and tricks. So happy it paid off!

I measured the crotch of pants that fit me well. Based on those measurements I shortened the front crotch by 2,5 cm, I did a tiny flat tummy adjustment and lengthened the legs with 2 cm.

Next stop: Winslow Culottes in a soft and drapy wool flanel that i got via @thefabricsales They sell designer deadstock fabrics, so take a look.

My white sneakers are by @ecoalf made partly out of ghost fishing nets. And they're washable, so after two years my sneakers are still white. Just a tip if you're looking for sustainable sneakers.

Happy holidays for now!!

I used an organic knit sweat by @poppyfabrics Such high end quality fabric which made this a nice and easy sew. 

Body measurements: waist 79 cm, hips 100cm, chest 93 cm.
Pattern: Elysian Bodysuit @fridaypatterncompany size M

My latest make: the Davenportdress!! Together with My latest make: the Davenportdress!! Together with the green hat and yellow thights i feel like a happy swaying tree in fall time🍁🍂🍃

Just like with all @fridaypatterncompany patterns, this was a great sew. With something called 'the burrito method🌯' you enclose all the seams in the backpart of the dress. Amazing, it works like magic🧚

This is a size M. I took in the waist with just a couple of centimeters, but no further adjustments were needed. I used a viscose fabric which adds beautiful sway to the finish of the dress. Next time though I would use interfacing between two layers of fabric for the ruffled sleeve part. Now they're just hanging on my shoulders like a pair of exhausted sad butterflies😅
