I know what you’re thinking — another pattern test? Yes, and this is the third in the group, but I promise it’s just as good as the last two. Pattern Emporium decided to launch 3 patterns at once. They’re based in Australia so sometimes they’ll do that so they can hit the summer and winter…
Okay, one more in this pattern testing set for you. This is the Pattern Emporium Hugs & Kisses Cami. It’s very similar to the Heartstrings Dress that was in the last 2 posts, but does vary below the bust. I made the same size in the bust as I did for my Heartstrings (8), but…
This weekend I posted my first version of the Pattern Emporium Heartstrings dress. This is my second version where I tried out several variations. Some I love and some I’ll only use once in a while, but I’ve narrowed in on my favorite combination. The most significant variation is that I did the low back.…
Very excited to share the latest pattern test I did for Pattern Emporium. This one is the Heartstrings Dress with Optional Shelf Bra and it’s a great summer dress (or winter if you like to layer). It’s got several options for the skirt length, back height and how to do the straps, plus a shelf…
Pattern Emporium has done it again with another amazing pattern that I was honored to pattern test! This is the Carefree Cuffed Tee which was just released today (so you can get it at 15% off for the next week or so). This post is mostly gonna be photos because the top itself is pretty…
And here is the top version of the Pattern Emporium Field of Dreams Strappy Tiered Dress and Top that I shared yesterday! I’ve already mentioned that the pattern has a ton of different styles so now you get to see another one. I love how cute and summery it is, styled here with my homemade…
I had the opportunity to test another pattern from Pattern Emporium so of course I jumped at the chance since their patterns are always so high quality. This one is their new Field of Dreams Strappy Tiered Dress and Top which was just release last week. I would have posted this sooner, but I was traveling. Obviously,…
This summery little number is the Free Spirit Tank by Patterns 4 Pirates. I actually made this last summer about the same time that I made my Rumi Tank Dress (which is why you may notice that my hair is the same color in both sets of photos). I was going on a tank dress odyssey…
It’s taken me a hot minute to get back into the swing of blogging things this year, but here we are. This one is the Tilly and the Buttons Zadie Dress which I finished last year but had bought the fabric about a year before that. I would arguably call this a somewhat wearable muslin. But…
This jacket is Vogue 8346 (edited to remove link since it no longer appears on the Vogue website though I’m pretty sure they still sell it) which was my final project for the tailoring class I took virtually this semester at the Cañada College fashion department. This was an amazing class and I learned oodles.…
