Copenhagen Top :)

Image
It seldom that I use a pattern twice, but this is an exception! I've made a black  Concert Top  before. The jersey is bought in Copenhagen earlier, so it was great to use the top when we were visiting the city :) Burdastyle pattern #113 11/2018

Refashion in Copenhagen :)

Image
I'm wearing my latest refashion dress. I've used a tank top together with a dress, and the short sleeves from a jacket I didn't use anymore :) Voila - Then it's a quite new dress!  To finish the sleeve hem I've used the hem of the tank top, easy - peasy!   Together with my good friend in Copenhagen!

Waves all around!

This is my own pattern made of many waves 😊 I have used yellow shiny sport stretch together with black courtelle jersey. The bias around the sleeve holes and neck are made of  the same jersey. It's rather easy to make, but you have to sew the pieces carefully together  to fit the top and bottom of "the hills". As you can see of the pattern I have marked it different places where it's gonna fit together. The dress is supersoft and comfy to wear!

Blue T-Shirt & Blue Leaves Skirt

This kind of Blue is my favorite! I was very happy when I found the white stretch cotton with blue leaves in St Petersburg when I was visiting together with my sewing friends ❤ I chose to make a skirt from BurdaStyle May issue which are very easy to sew, but very nice to wear! I like the high waist with buttons and of course the pockets! The T-shirt is made of jersey. With the small bow on the sleeves makes it unique :) Pattern is from BurdaStyle July issue.

Refashion - Dress with Lace Sleeves

Image
Playing with garments is FUN!😊 I have used an old T-shirt and two dresses and made a new one! I was not sure if I should use the sequins at the waist, but thought it would be nice. The lace sleeves is wonderful, and makes the dress unique. I'm very Happy how it turned out😘 The pics below show how I have cut the garments,  and how easy it is to make something new and different.

Top and Pants with ties

My lovely  model Marte. She is a singing star⭐ and sing like an angel💕 The top she's wearing is made from a pattern I've had for years  from the beginning of my sewing carrier, but not tried before..   I like the pleats on the shoulders and the cross at the back makes it special. Since the neckline was a bit wide I have used an invisible rubber-band  to keep the shoulders closer. The pants are cute with the straps at the end of the pants leg. The pockets are gathered and sewn on top of the front parts.   This pattern is from a Norwegian sewing magazine.
