I love wrap dresses, and I was drawn to the HANA Dress because of its casual elegance and sophistication. This style of dress also tends to be flattering on my hourglass figure. The dress is elevated with waist belt details, a 3/4 Dolman sleeve and a unique wrap design. There are 4 views- a long…
I AM BACK! I know I know, it took some time for me to get back behind the sewing machine. A lot has been changing too fast and too slow at the same time – and the combination of those things made me very stressed. So I started knitting again which helped me a lot…
I’m so lucky to have had the chance to review the RIVA set; it’s one of my favourite patterns now. I almost missed out on this pattern and dismissed it at first because it’s so hard to see the garments in the photos. The cover photo shows a woman gazing off into the distance over…
When I first saw a photo of this EXTREMELY fluffy tee it was love at first sight. And THEN I saw its name. Vienna Tee, I mean come on – what more do I have to say? I love my hometown and I love fluffy things. So… the next day I happened to find myself…
This dress is the second piece of clothing I’ve sewed since forever so I was excited and nervous to try it. The first garment I made many years ago didn’t go very well and made me afraid to take the risk again. This time I decided to embrace the challenge with the CHARLIE midi dress…

I have been sewing garments (consistently) for about two years now, and I am still in awe of the wide range of fabrics available to sew. I chose a jacquard linen because: 1) I love the name and 2) I have little-no experience working with this fabric type. I have also always wanted to add…

Next to blazers, blouses are my absolute favorite to wear. I enjoy making them the most. I especially love draping sleeves. I’m all about fit and balance when getting dressed. When I’m headed to my studio, I’m usually dressed like this. An oversized blouse, that is balanced with a fitted waist. In this case, I…
I’m Emily, a life-long creator, and romantic realist. I grew up a theater kid and spent my young adult years pursuing a career in opera. Based out of New York City after attending Manhattan School of Music, I bounced around the country directing and assistant-directing opera for regional opera houses. I now live in Portland,…
I’ve never been a big fan of summer: I cannot stand the heat, the humidity is unbearable, but most importantly, I can’t comfortably wear my favourite clothes for a few months of the year. Much to my great displeasure, one can’t really wear layers upon layers of wool in Turkish summers. I also have a…
With World Earth Day just behind us, we are being reminded to take a look at how we connect with our environment and how we in turn, connect to ourselves. The Earth element in 5 Element theory is associated with the Stomach, Spleen, the colour yellow, the vocal quality of ‘singing’, the smell of fragrant…
Tell us a bit about yourself and how you have become a costumer. As a kid, I always loved to dress up: Halloween, Renaissance festivals, cosplay…I went to NYC Comic-Con 8 years in a row and always was sketching historical clothing, but finally, my partner bought me a sewing machine for Christmas 2018 and that…
I was looking for a way to start this pattern review but the truth is, I will not beat around the bush and simply say: The AKIRA collection is a must-have in every handmade wardrobe! This pattern bundle includes a belted wrap top and a tie-front cardigan as well as an elasticized drawstring waist pant….
