Ellen's Sewing Passion

The sleeves are stitched together and then it's finished!   BurdaStyle pattern #111 07/2023 I had to make a pair of leggings as well. I think the combo with the gr...

  My brother in law sent me a photo from a marked when he was in Nice, and said: "You should have been here!" I said; "wow, I would love that one with the flowers" "No problem", he said.  Lucky me got this lovely fabric from my nice brother in law 😊 It was perfect to make a pair of leggings and a top for a new exercise outfit!                     Burdastyle pattern #107 01/2018      BurdaStyle pattern #114 07/2005
