Twist Back Top: Patterns for Pirates Pattern Test

Leave a comment

Well, summer has came and went. There were so many sewing projects but very little blog time. As the boys get older and more involved, I will have to become more creative in time management to allow for both sewing and blogging. All that to say that I am happy to be back on the … Continue reading Twist Back Top: Patterns for Pirates Pattern Test

The Unity Bra: Petite Stitchery & Co Pattern Test

Out of all of the things I have made myself, my husband was impressed with this one. He walked into the bedroom one night while I was taking fit pictures (for those unfamiliar with the term "fit pictures" it simply is a way pattern designers term pictures during the testing process to show how a … Continue reading The Unity Bra: Petite Stitchery & Co Pattern Test

Jamie. I don't know about you, but I automatically think James Alexander Malcolm MacKenzie Fraser. Yep. Big Outlander fan here. I haven't made a plaid Women's Jamie poncho yet like Megan Thoman, but her version screams Outlander. And yes, I will have a plaid one very soon. Now, I have never been a poncho wearer. … Continue reading Women’s Jamie: Made for Mermaids Pattern Test

Clueless Collection Part 1: Made for Mermaids Pattern Tests

2 Comments

I can't tell you how many times I watched Clueless after it came out on video. I am pretty sure we rented it a million times on VHS. Even though I was more tomboy than girlie girl, I couldn't help but to be jealous of Cher's closet full of designer clothes. Fast forward 23 years. … Continue reading Clueless Collection Part 1: Made for Mermaids Pattern Tests

It's been getting a little sappy in the Patterns for Pirates Sewing PDF Pattern Group as Judy and the Pirate Team have reached 100k members in the facebook group.

Women’s Sierra: Made for Mermaids Pattern Test

I seriously do not know how they do it. Every time I declare that a certain Made for Mermaids pattern is my favorite, they come out with my new favorite. The Women's Sierra is no different. I love this pattern. I love the cut outs. The flutter sleeves. The high low maxi skirt. Perfection. I … Continue reading Women’s Sierra: Made for Mermaids Pattern Test

I have been knee deep in swim fabric for a few weeks now, and I have loved every minute of it!!  Okay, well maybe not every minute of it because no project is complete without a little time spent seam ripping. Made for Mermaids is adding big time to their Mermaid Shores Collection with the … Continue reading Mermaids Shores Alexandria and Mama Roxy: Made for Mermaids Pattern Test

I have been sitting on these for a while, anxiously awaiting the releases. Primarily because I don't sew for my boys enough. And when I do, it makes me so thankful that I will have these photos of them to treasure for years to come. With that being said, let's lead off with the Adventure … Continue reading Sweet Tea and Adventure V-Neck Shirt: Petite Stitchery & Co Pattern Tests
