New born clothes 💓

Image
Our son and daughter in law got a new baby-girl a few days ago, and I wanted to surprice the parents with som newborn clothes💝 At first, I started to make a little wrap top. I made the finishing around the edges with the same fabric. The top has two snap-buttons for the inner layer, and ties at the other side. The baby is a cute little prinsess💖 Then I made a wrap body with long sleeves. I also used the same fabric as finishing around the edges. The body has snap-buttons for the inner- and outher layer. Then I made a little trouser with foot. This was very fast to sew toghether with no buttons or rubber-band. I think is rather cute :) BurdaStyle 01/2024

Kimono Dress - Coat 🌸🌸🌸

Image
I have been to Japan several times, and I fell in love with this coat pattern when I saw it, but unfortunately it took a while before I found the right fabric and moment to make it. I have used double-sided chinese brocade and black linen for the other parts.  - and microsatin for the lining. I used underlayer (vliseline) on both the upper part and  the facing of the black linen so it should be stiff enough. The upper part of the black linen are stitched to the front and back panels. The sleeves are stitched together on the one side,  and the the lower part of the lining that are made of linen. The sleeves looks very nice. This is the lining for the coat. I have used black painted snap-buttons. I'm very Happy with how the project turned out💗 The Dress-Coat is finished, and I'm very proud of the result :) BurdaStyle

Gathered Sleeves for my Friend 🧡

Image
This is a pattern that I was very curious to try, and I have made  Another  in a blue color earlier. I look rather crazy at the picture, but it's very nice.  The only thing that is not so good is when you are having a meal  or it's not a good idea to use when cooking 😉   BurdaStyle pattern #115 08/2018

Quilted fabric Dress!

Image
  This is a rather new pattern from BurdaStyle 12/23, but I have made a similar dress with colorblocking earlier. I have used quilted jersey and it's a bit heavy so it was a good choise for the pattern. This is all the parts afterI have cut it out. I started with sewing the fake pockets, and they are made of a double layer of fabric. Then I stitched the upper part to the lower part. I stitched the zipper at the back, and top stitched on each side of the zipper and the seams. I made the facing around the neck, - and top stitched around the neck afterwords. This is how the seams looks like on the wrong side. At first, I stitched the insert for the sleeves, and then stitched them together. Then the dress is finished :) BurdaStyle 12/2023
