The Puperita Swank Tee and Bermuda Shorts/Pants

You may have noticed that I really LOVE Puperita Patterns. I sew them frequently for my boys. Their closet is FULL of Puperita! I love how they fit them, and the patterns are perfect for everyday wear.

So... when the newest patterns were ready for testing, I excitedly applied. New Puperita Releases are all a surprise, so even for testers, you don't know exactly what you're testing. But, I am always excited to test or to be surprised with the new release!

So, this is the Puperita Swank Tee and Bermuda Shorts/ Pants patterns.

The Tee:

The tee is a knit raglan tee with a couple of options - you can make it with short or long sleeves. The tee can also be made with a crew neckline or as a mock turtleneck.

I made Daniel two during testing. Both are short sleeves, because it's still near 100 degrees every day in Louisiana.

The first I made was with some Doodles Interlock from Joanns that we got last year. He had a shirt similar to this one before, but this is a bigger size. 😊 The sleeves and neckband were made from a coordinating cotton lycra.

The second I made was from solid cotton lycra that I ordered from Peek-a-boo Fabric Shop. I love their fabrics - their solids and prints are awesome! He has been asking for a shirt with the "whole world" on it, so here's my take at that... my applique was a bit big, and maybe not entirely accurate, but he loves it!

The Shorts/ Pants:

Y'all these shorts are SO CUTE! They have front pockets and cute little pleats. They are a modern take on a classic look. Annalisa does the best at achieving this - every time! I'm always amazed!

They have elastic only in the back, and have a flat front waistband. They are VERY easy and quick to sew. They have a bermuda shorts length and a pants length. The legs are tapered, and they look so nice! They can be made in woven fabrics, or even with a sturdier knit fabric. I'm thinking ponte could be very nice too!

I made Daniel some using denim, because denim is so versatile and matches pretty much everything! I love that.

I'm looking forward to making him a pants length pair for when the weather cools bit! I already have more denim 💗👖

The Patterns:

These patterns are drafted in sizes newborn all the way to size 10! YAY!

They are available in the Puperita Etsy Shop. On release day (August 22, 2019) only, you can get them at a special bundle price.

So.... go check them out! Share your makes in the Puperita Group!

January Releases from Amelia Lane Designs

I always get so excited about new fabric releases from Amelia Lane Designs. Frequently, they give me the opportunity to sew something I might not otherwise and try something new. I have learned a lot sewing for them, like how to sew swim and athletic wear. But I've also learned that I actually LIKE wearing fun prints and designs that I haven't always worn. ** Disclosure: I have included affiliate links to patterns used in this post. If you choose to purchase a pattern using my link, I will receive a small commission of the sale at no additional cost to you.** For this release, I tried something that is really not me - this fun animal print! There have been a few releases recently with fun animal-print fabrics, and I have not sewn any of them, because I thought I wouldn't like wearing them. But after seeing some of the other sewists in the ALD Facebook Group sharing their makes, I knew I HAD to try it! I am really glad I did. This dress makes me so happy! This fabric is a d...

New Athletic Set - ALD fabrics

Every month, Amelia Lane Designs is featuring a new fabric of the month. The featured fabric type is discounted throughout the entire month! 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! And, the best part is, every time I make something new from athletics, I get motivated to move and exercise! **Disclosure: I have included affiliate links in this post. If you choose to purchase a pattern using my link, I will receive a small commission of the sale at no additional cost to you.** This Set: For the top, I used a fabric called " Sportivo ." 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 deci...
