Ellen's Sewing Passion

This is a pattern I have tried before, but I think it's very nice for a girl. I have cut all the parts in linen fabric, and the ribbon for the neck is cut on bias. At first, I stitched the shoulders- and the side-seams together. Then I stitched the front pocket in place. Then I stitched the ribbon around the neck and the arm-holes. I made a little loop for the button, and also on the inside. Ottobre Kids pattern 02/2009

I bought this nice Linen/Viscose fabric at  Abby's Tekstiler I wanted to make something nice and found a pattern in a Miss B magazine from 2/94 :) I have used the same pattern once before when I made a  Short Vest with Printed letters I had 2 meter of the fabric, and had to squeeze it to get enough since the vest is rather long.  I stitched the inserts for the back panels,  and stitched the back seam together, and the upper back panel in place. I made the pockets and iron vliseline for the top that is folded. The pockets are stitched in place. The collar is stitched to the vest, and then the facing to the collar and the sides. I stitched a seam around the collar and the sides. I also stitched the hem and the slits to the inside.   Miss B (today it's called BurdaStyle Easy Fashion)

  When I saw this patter in BurdaStyle magazine March -25, I just knew that I had to make it ;)  I have used this wonderful Cotton satin - retro abstract fuchsia, that I bought at  Lysthuset.no The front panels are different. These are the back panels. The facing are hand-stitched to the inside. The upper- and lower panel are stithed together at the same time with the inserts. I stitched the zipper in place at the back before stitching the front and back panels together.   I'm very happy with the outcome💗 BurdaStyle pattern #129 03/2025
