New patterns! Back to sewing!


I used this fabric and this fabric both from Stenzo

MADITA has been around for a while but has just now been translated into English. I love the simplicity of this dress in of so many ways! First it looks fabulous with it's no fuss style. Second it sews together in a flash.
My girls love it because they can get dressed by just pulling the dress over their heads and that there is no front or back to it. Even a 2 year old can get dressed by herself : )

She has applied makeup to her face and I thought it was too cute to wipe off

Romy got a Madita too and with hers I discovered that the front and back panels are fantastic canvases for any kind of appliques or stencils or etc.. etc..


I used this fabric from Stenzo and this fabric from Hilco.


ZUCKA is the second new pattern in English translation. This skirt is a bit more labor intensive but not overly so and for summer I can see both Ella and Romy having several of these. I am thinking I'll sew a couple of leggings to go with them as well.



Now I have also had to sew new pants for Ella and new shirts. The girl has literally grown like a wheat over the Winter.



This outfit was a true labor of love and Ella was terribly excited when I emerged from the sewing room with it :))) Pants are Queenie and the shirt is a Leni.



More to come tomorrow!
