More Matching in Our ALD

When I saw this fabric, I kind of think I fell in love. Y'all, it's just so pretty!

I love the pretty, vibrant colors. I love the floral design. And it's pretty different from most of my wardrobe. My closet that used to be filled with black and blues is looking more pink and mauve these days. Thanks friends at Amelia Lane Designs.

So, I was excited for something new and different. I had one yard for promotion and sharing, and ordered a second yard to make my beautiful Adrian Dress. (Adrian is the fabric's name 😉)

When it came in, it was SO pretty. I was trying to decide what dress to make, but then it hit me... I didn't need a new dress. Leah and I needed matching tops!

We enjoy our matching clothes. It's fun to go out dressed alike!

So... these are our brand new Wardrobe by Me Wardrobe Builder Tees:

I blogged on this pattern before here. I love this pattern. I already had two tops made from this - my Sweater Knit Boatneck and my Sweater Knit Scoop Neck, so I was excited for a third.

My previous wardrobe builder tees from testing

I couldn't decide whether to use one of the necklines I've used before or try something new. This pattern has five neckline options! It's amazing.

I ended up asking my sister. She liked both of the necklines I've used previously and the o-neckline. I decided that since we both need a broad shoulder adjustment, that I'd just use my previous pattern pieces since it was already done. Lazy sewist? 😉

I love the boatneck-line but haven't made many in the past because of my broad shoulders - stuff fits weird sometime. But after testing this pattern, I'm glad to now have my go-to boatneck pattern, and I don't know if I'll ever get enough! 💓

I love the hemline too! It has a curved hem, and is so pretty!

So these are our NEW Boatneck Tees in my favorite ALD print. Seriously... this might be my favorite fabric print ever!

The Fabric:

The fabric is a super soft double brushed poly fabric available now at Amelia Lane Designs. It's really, really beautiful y'all. I don't know if you've picked up on it, but I kind of like the print. 😉 But in all seriousness, in the ALD promo team, some of the people who don't generally choose florals are loving this print too, so it must be nice, right?

It's on sale this week, along with the rest of the new arrivals. So, head over to their site and check them out! 😊

A Double Release from Pattern Emporium

I get so excited about new patterns. 😊 One of my favorite designers is releasing TWO new patterns together this month, and I'm thrilled to share about them! **Disclosure: I have included my affiliate links to the patterns used for this post. If you choose to purchase a pattern using my link, I'll receive a small commission of the sale at no additional cost to you.** The first new release- the BESTIES TEE This tee is so fun, with quite a few options! You can choose whether you like the flared tee or the banded tee. The flared tee features a slightly flared silhouette with three length options (cropped, regular, or long). The banded option also has a slightly flared silhouette gathered into a waistband. It also has a couple of lengths - for the hemband to sit on the waist or the hips. Both versions can be made with several necklines- three different rounded necklines, a v neckline, or a squared neckline. They both have several options for sleeve lengths or two choices for sle...

Free and Easy... Sewing the Agnes by Halla!

I love trying new things when it comes to sewing. I love learning new techniques, how to do things different ways, and figuring things out. For the most part, I also enjoy trying new-to-me pattern designers. This was my first ever pattern by Halla - the AGNES . Yep, I downloaded it a long time ago when it released, but this was my first time ever making it! I downloaded it with intentions of trying it because it was so popular. It may have been popular because it's a FREE pattern (you can get the code to download it in the Halla Facebook Group ), or it may have been really popular because it's FREE and REALLY AWESOME. This blog tour gave me a chance to find out for myself! I participated in this blog tour put together by Kate of Sewing from Scratch ... the idea is that we would all sew the same pattern, but make it our own. If we love it as is, we sew it as is. If we want a cute bow (Gwen😉), we add a cute bow, if we want to make all the adjustments to get our perfect ...

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...
