Between all the new projects, Vicky and I are still working on the photo book. Actually in this stage is't mainly Vicky that is working on the layout and the pictures. I think it's so so exciting. I didn't see…

Some of you might have noticed: I'm writing a book... and it's not a sewing book! I have the impression that some blogger struggle from time to time when it comes to taking pictures of their creations. For several reasons: because it's…

Can you still remember my very first sewing contest? After mentioning on Facebook that I'll be organising a 2nd one soon, Marleen (last year's winner) has written a super cute blogpost. It's in Dutch on her blog, but especially for me…

The "Hand-me-down" makeover! My personal favourite theme in this Project Run & Play season. Every time I walk through the thrift store, I see up-cycling projects everywhere. I can never leave without buying something! ;) For this week's challenge I…

For the back-to-the-roots-action, I made two prize packs: One for the sew-along , but also one for the tour participants! What's more fun than being able to win great prizes when you participate in a big tour like this? I…

When I got the idea of organising a sewing contest, I could have never expected so many entries! I was blown away by so much creativity and enthusiasm. To be honest: I never had so much buzz on my blog…

I could never have dreamt of such a big respons to my contest. 113 projects have been uploaded in 3 weeks time! So first of all I would like to thank all of you: for participating but also for commenting.…

Gezien onze techneut nog altijd ergens in de sneeuw zit, zijn de cameraproblemen nog altijd niet opgelost. Maar goed we zouden geen vrouw zijn moesten we ons plan niet kunnen trekken. Dochterlief, net wakker en te spartelen om naar de…

Terwijl manlief ergens in Oostenrijk op zijn snowboard staat, waagde ik mij aan twee versies van de jurk. Waarom twee? Omdat ik gewoon niet kon kiezen tussen twee leuke stofjes. Ik paste de zijstukken aan zodat de blauwe stof en…

This is the first time that I buy online a pattern, it's a pleasant discovery for me, because behind some sewing project there is a creative community. This is the case of Louisa dress, I've found more versions in the…

I just hear you think: that's no Louisa! But oh yes it is, the most simple version! Yesterday I made a Louisa with all sorts of frills, and today I'm doing a plain Jane. Marte's instructions were simple: "do something…

Het lag al lang in de kast. Dat ene stofje voor een T-shirt voor de 9-jarige zus. Zelf was ze het stofje al een beetje vergeten, maar toen ze het over laatst in de stoffenkast zag liggen vond ze dat…

Beter laat dan nooit, dacht ik op het laatste moment. Stemmen heb ik niet geronseld maar het is toch zo’n schitterend patroon/resultaat om de genaaide jurkjes niet te tonen! Het jurkje zelf is al sinds december af, maar foto’s nemen…

I’ve chosen a very simple fabric, but to cut the big pocket in the front and the contrast inserts in the back of the dress I’ve turned my fabric with an angle of 90 degrees to accentuate these two special…

Een jaar geleden leende ik de oude singer naaimachine van mijn mama. Ik wilde leren kleertjes maken voor mijn kindjes. Ik was het beu om te foeteren op al die mainstream kleren waar iedereen mee rondloopt en die dan ook…

Hi, I am Tereza from Aura Borealis. I live in Prague, Czech Republic. I sew kids and women clothes for about 5 years. I do design patterns myself, but when I see a styllish one I can not resist to…

I present you the combination of Louisa Dress and Mara Blouse patterns. For the most part, I used the Louisa Dress Pattern, but incorporated the yoke and long sleeve option from Mara Pattern. Instead of button placket on the front,…
