Dress with Fancy Pockets

Image
I do love challenges and to try out new patterns :) The pockets for this dress are really nice. Since I wanted a summery dress my choice was  to make it without sleeves, so I made facing instead.    I have tried to show how the pockets are made,  both on the right side and the wrong side. Since I choose to use sport stretch (with the shiny-side in) I had to add invisible rubber-band at the waist to keep it steady.                Burdastyle pattern #104 10/2016 Thanks for featuring my dress BurdaStyle!

Satin Skirt

I found this nice satin in my stash and wanted to make a summery skirt. Since the fabric was a bit transparent I added lining. It's an easy pattern and the skirt fall nicely since it's cut on bias. I stitched the hem twice so it should look nice.  Burdastyle pattern #122 04/2013

Knotted Shirt

This pattern catch my eyes,  and I knew I had to try it :) I have used striped white jersey, and I think it was a great choice.  It's soft and comfy to wear.  Burdastyle pattern #101 10/2016

Knotted Zebra Dress

This is a great pattern, and I have made two different dresses like this before. The knot in front makes it unique and I think it's a lovely style. I have posted a  Rainbow Dress  on BurdaStyle earlier.  The black  Bomber Jacket  is an earlier project. This is my first dress based on this pattern from BurdaStyle 04/2008. I have combined the red jersey with lilac and black as decoration.

Girl's gathered Top

  It's nice to have a long sleeved top on holiday :) Colourful flower jersey are very nice for any garment. This top is gathered both at the neck, in front and at the hem of the sleeves.

Girl's jersey Dress

The dress based on a pattern from Ottobre 02/2009. Girl's love to wear dresses, so I lengthened the pattern and made a flounce at the hem. It's nice with gathering in front and bias around the neck and sleeves. I had this little "Sweet" sewing mark to make it a bit special.   

Printed Linen Dress

Linen dress is lovely to wear on holiday :) I have used a pattern from a Norwegian sewing magazine. I like the A-line shape of the skirt and it's very comfy to wear.

Colorful Top

This is a great top for my sister on law. The neck is a bit wide,  but instead of gathering the neck I have made small pleats  sewing together on the wrong side.   BurdaStyle pattern #117 07/2012

Girl's T-Shirt

    For this T-shirt I have used BurdaStyle pattern #149 11/2012. I like to combined different fabric, and I think this neon green jersey was great to combined with a printed jersey. Burdastyle pattern #149 11/2012
