Blouse for a Good Friend 💞

Image
I decided to surprice my friend with this blouse since she liked the Blouse I made earlier :) The fabric is linen and viscose and is very delicate and soft. It's a great pattern from BurdaStyle #111 07/25. I stitched the dart abd the hem before - I stitched the button lists in front. I made the slits for the back of the sleeves, and lay the pleats in the right direction. The insert at the back are stitched in place before stitching the back seam. The side seams and the sleeves are stitched together. The collar are stitched together, - and the collarstand. Then the collar are stitched in place. My friend is enjoying her holiday ☼ I have used some nice shiny buttons! - and I also stitched the cuffs for the sleeves in place. BurdaStyle #111 07/25

Jersey Dress & Jacket!

Image
I travelled to Stavanger with my friend and of course we found som very nice fabric :) I decided to make a dress I saw in BurdaStyle 02/25,  but since I had more fabric left I made a cardigan as well! I have used the cardigan pattern once before when I made my Wool Cardigan . The fabric is black on the wrong side, and it's a bit heavier than normal jersey. I stitched the darts on the back panels, and also the facing for the back-neck. The sleeves are short. This it the upper layer of the front pantel. I had to stitch the upper-layer panel together with the under-layer.  BurdaStyle #110 02/2025 These are the parts for the cardigan. The princess seams are stitched together, and the collar are stitched in place. Then I stitched the sleeves together with the cardigan. and I found some nice buttons in my stash :) BurdaStyle pattern #113 03/2025 I was wearing my dress when we had a birthday party for a friend :)

Sweater with Turtle neck!

Image
  I bought some nice quilted sweatshirt fabric and thought it would be nice for a sweater. I found a BurdaStyle pattern from 2022 that I wanted to try. I like esesially the wide sleeves. At first, I stitched the zipper at the back, and stitched the panels together.  I shorten the zipper as you can see on the picture. The shoulder seams are stitched, and the facing around the neck. Then I made the cuffs and gathered the sleeve hem to the same wide. Then I stitched the cuffs in a double layer for the sleeve hem. The side seams are stitched, and the sleeves are attatched. The sweater was a great match for my dress that is made of the same fabric. The shoulders are very low for the sweater. BurdaStyle 11/2022
