The Pattern Emporium Unwind

I have had a busy couple of months. I saw the tester call for this pattern, and I liked the style, but I just COULDN'T. I can't do everything, as much as I might like to. 😜

**Disclosure: I have included my affiliate link to the pattern used in this post. If you choose to make a purchase using my link, I'll receive a small commission of the sale at no additional cost to you.**

This is the Pattern Emporium Unwind... and I'm so excited to have one! 



This will be the perfect pattern for the fall as the weather begins to change. It is the perfect piece for looking put together while also being super comfortable. 

All About the Pattern:

The Unwind Sweater/ Jumper is a dolman style pullover top. There are no separate sleeve pieces as they are all one piece with the bodice. It is very easy and VERY quick to make! 


It can be made in many different fabrics, and looks great in all of them! You can see a video that Kate made about the Unwind, showing her many versions, here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1QbqdbsK01w. She made quite a few using different options and different fabrics, and they're all amazing. If you watch it, fair warning, I'm sure you'll want to make one! 😉

The Unwind has many options! You can choose your sleeve length - short sleeve with hem, half sleeve with band, or long sleeve with band. You can choose which length you want your top - anything from crop length to long top length. There are two separate cutting lines for the regular and tall lengths. The hem is finished very easily with a hem band. 


There are many options for the neckline including a crew neckline, a relaxed neckline, a hood, or a turtleneck. 

PLUS: if these options aren't enough for you, you can purchase the POCKET ADD-On to go with this pattern here: https://patternemporium.com/products/unwind-sweater-hoodie-top-pockets-add-on-sewing-pattern?aff=70.

My Fabric:

As I mentioned, you can make this pattern using just about any fabric! I have had this liverpool for a couple of weeks trying to decide what I wanted to make with it. I love this fabric, y'all, and I wanted to choose a pattern that would do the fabric justice. Initially I wanted to make a dress, but with the print of the fabric, I was having a VERY tough time narrowing down a dress pattern that I thought would look great.


Finally, I remembered this pattern. I messaged Kate to get her opinion about whether or not the liverpool would work well - she reassured me that everything works well with this pattern, so I went with it. And I'm SO glad I did, because I'm pretty much in love with this sweater!

This is Liverpool from Amelia Lane Designs. All of their liverpool is on sale for a few more days - through the END of September (2020). So it's a great time to grab some to try out, or to stock up if you know you love it! 💓


Reasons I Love Liverpool:

Liverpool is actually one of my favorite fabric types! I love many of them, but liverpool has been a favorite for me since the first time I tried it! There are several reasons... my biggest reason is that it is so easy to sew! It has structure and is just very easy to sew. Another reason is that it hardly wrinkles, like EVER. Like I've crammed a dress made from liverpool into a suitcase and pulled it right out to wear without ironing! It's like a miracle fabric for packing!! It also has an amazing texture, and is just beautiful! 


So remember to check out the sale on liverpool at Amelia Lane Designs before the end of the month!!

The Tank Dress 3-ways by Pattern Emporium

It's been a while since I posted. I've been sewing, helping my kindergartener with virtual school, and living, which just hasn't left me with a lot of time for blogging! Life happens!  But... I've kind of missed writing, and I decided that now was the perfect time to make a new post. I had the opportunity to sew a pattern I really liked, and I got excited enough to find the motivation to write about it! 😉 **Disclosure: I have included my affiliate link to the pattern used in this post. If you choose to purchase a Pattern from Pattern Emporium using my link, I will receive a small commission of the sale at no additional cost to you.** The pattern I tested is from Pattern Emporium. I love their patterns for a few reasons. I've posted before that I have kind of broad shoulders and on with some designers I have to adjust patterns to fit them. There are a couple of designers that seem to fit me well with no adjustments to the pattern pieces and this is one of them. I

It's so nice if your favorite fabric type is featured or one that you've just been wanting to try.  This month, the featured fabric is Athletics! I LOVE the athletics from ALD!

This is a nylon/ spandex blend. It can be used for athletic tops, sports bras, and even swimwear. I LOVE this fabric !  For this top, I used the Marin from Sew A Little Seam . This is a swim pattern. I planned to sew a crop top version with this for an exercise tank, but when I finished, I decided to
