Ellen's Sewing Passion

When I first saw this pattern in BurdaStyle magazine I thought it looks very funny, but I had to give it a try! I found this transparent fabric in my stash that I bought to make some easy sportswear, but it was great for this kind of  top as well :) The shoulders are gathering and left open. I like such quick and easy project! This is the first time I'm wearing it together with my lovely friends,  and we are celebrating my sister-in-law's birthday!🥂           BurdaStyle pattern #114 06/2020

Fresh and Sunny Color for a Holiday 💛 I have made a  Flower Version  of this pattern earlier, and it's a great pattern. This time I have used chiffon, and since it was transparent I double the layer in front, but kept it transparent for the back part and the sleeves. BurdaStyle pattern #109 05/2017

This is a pattern that I really LOVE 💜 I was lucky to win a selection of Vintage patterns  in a BurdaStyle competition, and this is one of them!   The jersey I have chosen for the dress is rather crazy  so therefore I needed a plain color to suit the fabric. I tried with different colors, but when I were on holiday I found a lilac  transparent scarf with a silver sparkling, which I thought would be perfect. Since I still had a bit left of the scarf after cutting the wide sleeves, I made a double layer around the neck with opening at the back for a little tie. I have made a  Chiffon Dress  earlier with the same pattern. This dress makes me in a good mood and I'm happy how it turned out! 😊     BurdaStyle Tina Dress

I bought this Fabulous scarf a while ago, and thought it would be nice for a Top! It's like you watch in an aquarium😂 I have used an easy pattern from BurdaStyle 04/2016. As you can see it has small inserts at the neck on the right side of the fabric. I have mad  Aquarius Top  and  Printed Top  earlier of the same pattern, but this time I wanted to have fluffy sleeves like I made on the  Maxi Dress ! Since the scarf are transparent I have used black cotton voile as lining for the front part. The pants are made of linen. It's not often that I use Simplicity pattern, but this was perfect for the project! I like the high waist and the top looks nice both inside or outside the pants. I love these colors and it makes me Happy to wear this outfit!😘  Burdastyle pattern #118 04/2016  Pattern from Simplicity No. 32/2019 Thanks BurdaStyle for featuring  My Project! ...
