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...

A Perfect Pair - My Mama's Newest Sinclair Ivy

When this fabric came, I was planning to sew it for my mama. I've made her a few tops in the past couple of months and planned to use one of the same patterns - either the Love Notions Laundry Day Tee or the Wardrobe by Me Sneha Tunic. I didn't order any coordinates to go with it, so I planned to make the whole top from the same fabric. I was getting ready to cut it out last weekend, but I needed to clean up some of my mess first from my last couple of sewing projects. So I started folding scraps, and put them to the side... right beside my folded new fabric for the top. I kind of fell in love with the two fabrics together. So here is my accidental coordinate: The NEW "ELLIS" Rayon Spandex from Amelia Lane Designs and their Denim Pointelle. Aren't they just beautiful together? So I KNEW I had to use them together. My mind immediately went to the Sinclair Ivy. It is perfect for using two fabrics, I already had had her size printed because I've made he...

The Wardrobe by Me Sneha

I don't know how many different tee shirt patterns I have. It's probably a pretty big number. Apparently I really like trying out new ones. Sometimes I try a new one and feel indifferent about it, rarely I'll try a new one and hate it, but generally I'll try a new one and love it for one reason or another.  I like sewing, I like patterns, and generally I'll love something about what I make. **Disclosure: I have included my affiliate link to the pattern I used for this post. If you choose to purchase a pattern from Wardrobe by Me using my link, I'll receive a small commission of the sale at no additional charge to you.** That was the case with the Wardrobe by Me Sneha . The fit of the pattern plus the few options that it includes just makes me happy! The Wardrobe by Me Sneha : This is a pattern drafted for knit fabrics. It works best with a drapey fabric. It includes a top length, a tunic length, a dress with a front cut out (that is really cute), or...

The Linea A-Line Skirt pattern by Wardrobe by Me

I love skirts and dresses. I wear them a lot, especially in the summer months when it is warm outside. I have wanted a pattern for a knit a-line skirt pattern for a while! I have pencil skirt patterns, but sometimes prefer something a bit less-fitted. I have skater skirt patterns, but as much as I like them, they require so much fabric. So I've been on the lookout for a good a-line skirt pattern for months probably. ** Disclosure: I have included my affiliate links for these patterns throughout this post. If you chose to purchase a pattern using my link, I will receive a small commission from the sale at no additional cost to you. ** When I saw the tester call for Linea A-Line Skirt by Wardrobe by Me , I got excited! It's the skirt I've been looking for, and it's a designer I love! All the Details about This Pattern : This pattern is drafted for US Sizes 0-24. It is to be used with knit fabrics. You can use stable knits or drapier knits. There are three dif...

Perfect for Layering... Perfect All By Itself - The Starting Point Tank by Winter Wear Designs

I know what you're thinking. I don't need  another tank. I thought that too when I saw the tester call for the Winter Wear Designs Starting Point Tank , but it looked like a fairly simple, quick sew to get me back in the swing of things after the holidays. So, I eagerly applied to test. And... I'm pretty happy I did! Let me tell you about the tank ... This tank is one of the Wardrobe Builder Patterns at Winter Wear Designs, meaning that its only $5 forever! I love these $5 patterns. They're all beautiful, and just as amazing as any other pattern, but they're perfect, fairly simple sews for filling up your closet. They truly are Wardrobe Builders. This one is designed to fit close to the skin with negative ease, so obviously requires stretch fabrics. It has two neckline options, the scoop neck and the deep scoop neck. You can finish the tank top with bands or binding. There are separate cut lines for regular length and petite length included in the pattern . ...
