Ellen's Sewing Passion

This is a pattern I have tried before when I made another  Ribbed Wool Dress ,  but this time I wanted to make the dress without gathering shoulders. Also this time, I made a Midi-Dress. I have cut the sleeve with gathering only where the cuffs are connected. I have used ribbon at the shoulder seam, and vlieseline around the armholes. The neck are made of double layer of fabric. I made the cuffs with double layer. BurdaStyle #111 10/2021

I made a velvet dress for this cute baby-girl of the fabric I had left  after I made  the Pants with bell-bottom . The flower-decoration is from my mother in law.  I gathered the neck to fit with the upper part. At first I stitched the flower decoration with the sawing machine, but then I realize I had to hand-stitch it as well. The facing are stitched to the inside, and the side seams are stitched together. The sleeves are stitched to the dress after gathering. 

I have made several garments with this pattern,  and I can't get enough of the square neck :) This is a Dress with exposed zipper that I made earlier.  The parts are cut, and the sleeves are 3/4 long. The shoulder-strips are folded and stitched excatly to the line  where the folding for the facing is. Both strips are stitched in place before sewing the side seams. The fabric I have used is a blend of polycotton stretcg jacquard.   I have fasten the seam for the neck-facing very nicely on the wrong side. BurdaStyle pattern #108 06/2021

  This dress is made of tweed fabric with sequins. It is perferct to use with a blouse or a top underneath, and also with a jacket if you like :) It' a good to wear this time of year and when it's cold outside. I have combined these two patterns: 2010_Burda easy fashion # 6C 02.2010 2008 #106 Burda 09.2008

  I made this top for my sister in law💗 I like this kind of neck with the waterfall, and this is a great pattern from Marfy. The notches shows where the shoulder seam is going to be, and all the other fabric will stay on the inside of the front. I stitched a double layer of fabric to the right side of the back neck,  and turned it inside. I stitched close to the seam, and stitched it in place.  This is how it looks like when it has been stitched in place. The shoulders are stitched together. This is how it looks like on the wrong side. The side seam for the short sleeves are sewn together. I stitched the hem and the sleeve-hem with a double needle. Marfy pattern #3075

I made this cute dress for a baby-gril's 1-year birtday ❤️ I was lucky to have enough fabric left after I made the  Dress with Pleated Sleeves . I stitched the side seams and the gathered flounse at the hem. The sleeves has rubberband as a finish. The sleeves are stitched in place. The flounce is stitched to the neck, and I made a tunnel for the rubber-band. Ottobre Kids pattern 01/2024 Since I had a bit left of this soft jersy fabric,  it was enough to make a pair of pants for the little girl as well :) At first, I made the front pockets. The side seam are stitched together. The legs are stitched together,  -and the waistband is stitched in place. Ottobre Kids 01/2024
