PJ sewed

I  finally sewed the PJ. I had a small disguise with the yoga band  as I tried to bust scraps (I have a bunch  and I feel bad tossing them). I sewed up the band in two pieces one as a facing and one as the outer side but it was not a dead good idea. The band did not stretch and it was uncosy.
at the end I sewed it in one pieces folding it up on the top and in a more stretch fabric and I am pleased with the result.




What's next?



see you soon...

Another plantain shirt


Hello! This is not the best pic of all times but anyway... I made a bunch of these in the past and I will keep up doing them. such a versatile pattern and FOR FREE!!! IMO this is the pattern I used mostly.

Now I am whipping up a PJ. The top will be a Plantain (the biggest size avaible) and for pants i am using the comfy knit lounge pants.

The fabric?
This funny knit print. I bought it at Encants Vells market some time ago.

knocking off lined Hoodie

I knocked off an hoodie and I lined it with a cheetah print polar fleece. I am quite satisfied with the result even if the lining does not slide too well on the body.





Maybe the next time I will interline it rather than lining it.... What do you think?

Collar sleeveless shirt

I did it...

thank you to the Crafty classes about sewing with sheers I ended the collar sleeveless blouse from the book of a notorious British show about sewing.

  Cutting it on the paper was a pain in the neck even if I starched the fabric before.
 I cut a size 8 for the shoulders blending it with a 12 for the bust.
French seams, lightweight interfacing on the collar gave a good result. As I needed more dart control at the bust I translated it at the shoulder gathering.
