The Lucy dress was maybe the quickest dress I have ever sewn! All you need is a couple of rectangles, some elastic and enough patience to sew perfectly parallel.... Lisa loves her new 'mermaid dress'! What a sense of imagination!…

Last week I made a Theo dress! I started from the Theo shirt pattern by Zonen09 and turned it into an A-line dress. Easy! Add some Hamburger Liebe fabric, Nore, boots and sunshine to obtain the perfect ingredients for a nice dress & photoshoot!…

Already for a long time, we were hoping to find time to give Lisa & Nore new (and separate) bedrooms. So this 3rd B-day was the best excuse to finally make time for the big move! So last Tuesday, we…

About two weeks ago I was stressed! A lot! Home alone with the kids for a week, the start of the contest, some technical problems (without my IT support) and I was a little bit sick of Compagnie M. It's…

'Alexandra and her sister' was a project that involved a simple skirt and 'a less easy dress'. For Ale's dress some pattern grading needed to be done. She had chosen a dress from 'stof voor durf het zelvers' in a…
