I've always had a strong appreciation for comfortable clothing and during the last couple of years, that has only increased. Spending my days at home, my go-to garment is a pair of joggers or lounge pants. I'll occasionally wear leggings but my first choice is always the joggers. I realized recently that I've sewn joggers from four different patterns so I thought it would be fun to share all of them in today's post and do a little compare and contrast.
Hello sew-friends! I have a new dress to share with you today! It's the last in my recent series of unseasonable clothing. lol I started making this dress in August or September and finished it in late October. I wanted to try to get it done for my trip in October but alas it didn't make the cut. And now it's November and it's a little too cold to wear it. Sure, I could layer on tights and turtleneck but these colors feel so summery. That said! I think it's a really pretty and unexpectedly, it feels very Regency to me. (If you're curious what Regency style dresses look like, check out this Pinterest board.)
So, to go with my Regency dress, I thought it would be fun to talk about one of my favorite authors, Jane Austen. But first, let's talk about the dress.
Hello! I'm back with another not-seasonally-appropriate but much loved DIY to share. And, it's a matching two piece set–often called a two-piece-setacular here in the sewing world. Just like last week's swim top, I made this set for my trip to Hawaii last month. It was a really lovely trip and so nice to get away and explore the islands. Before the trip, I had a long list of things that I wanted to make (isn't that always the case!). I didn't get through all of them but I did manage to whip up this cute set. The top is an early version of my Miri Tank Top that I had never fully finished and the shorts are the Flint Shorts by Megan Nielsen.
