Roscoe Dress

I’ve been doing a little bit selfless sewing lately and made this Roscoe Dress for my lovely mother-in-law while she was visiting. One of the days that she was here, we took the train to Cascais, and I had my heart set on going to the fabric store Ourotêxteis. I only had plans to get matching thread for some fabric … Continue reading “Roscoe Dress”

Sleeveless Bonn Dress

This may seem like a very unseasonal sewing project, but I finished it over a month ago and actually got to wear it a couple of times before it got too chilly. Also – huge shocker – this is the first dress that I’ve sewn for myself in over 3 years! I got a little bit burned out from making … Continue reading “Sleeveless Bonn Dress”

Mira Dress – Repurposed

Some of you may recognize this Mira Dress from a few years ago. I made it over 3 years ago when I was pregnant with my daughter. I love this fabric SO much, but there was just something about the dress that was really bothering me, so I didn’t reach for it very often. Since I only brought a handful … Continue reading “Mira Dress – Repurposed”

This is the Nusch Blouse (sizes from 86-100cm hip) by Bertina Paris. It’s an absolutely gorgeous pattern, but the sizing isn’t inclusive. I … Continue reading “Nusch Blouse”

EA Saturday Shorts

This is my second time making the EA Saturday Shorts (sizes from 34.5-59.5″ hip) and I was very excited to make a couple of changes to make them fit better. My first shorts turned out great, and I still wear them weekly, but the back rise is a little too short, and they kind aren’t roomy enough in the crotch … Continue reading “EA Saturday Shorts”

Double Gauze Esme Cardigan

I’ve been wanting to make a cardigan like this since the day Treasure posted this photo in 2020. I have seriously had it saved that long, and have just been agonizing over what fabric and pattern to use. So ridiculous. And before I continue, Treasure is the most amazing person and bag maker with the best style. She’s been growing … Continue reading “Double Gauze Esme Cardigan”

Archer Shirt

After years and years of seeing so many amazing Archer shirts made my other sewists, I have finally made my own! This is a very popular pattern in the sewing community because it’s such a great classic tailored shirt. The pattern is by Grainline Studio and has sizes ranging from 35-61″ hip. I have a really cool RTW button up … Continue reading “Archer Shirt”
