Blue 8-Panel Skirt – Free Lekala Sewing Pattern

March 9, 2022March 8, 2022 / Kitty/ Leave a comment

This is another skirt I made for my older sister, probably back in 2020 as a Christmas present. It is a free sewing pattern from Lekala, and it was actually one of the first patterns I downloaded, but I never got around to making it. Finally, when I needed to make something as another present, I decided to make this. …

Green Velvet Circle Skirt – Free Sewing Pattern

February 15, 2022February 15, 2022 / Kitty/ Leave a comment

Remember my purple velvet circle skirt? I made that in 2020, which is now such a long time ago. I’m guessing it was that same year at Christmastime when my younger sister and I were brainstorming gift ideas. We decided to make an outfit for my youngest sister, and this fun and twirly circle skirt in luxurious green velvet was …

Green Button Blouse – Lekala Sewing Pattern

February 10, 2022February 8, 2022 / Kitty/ Leave a comment

When I made the pink button blouse for my older sister, I had my youngest sister model it so I could mark the buttons. It was then that I realized that her measurements are very similar and it would fit her. So after finishing that blouse, I decided to make one for her using the same Lekala pattern. She wanted …

Pink Button Blouse – Lekala Sewing Pattern

February 7, 2022February 3, 2022 / Kitty/ 2 Comments

This is the other blouse I made for my older sister along with the blouse with buttons. When I was looking through the Lekala catalog for a couple of blouses to make for her, I came across this pattern for a button-up blouse. I liked the classic look of the buttons and the shape of the yoke. I also like …

Pink Fleece Raglan Blouse

November 15, 2021November 15, 2021 / Kitty/ Leave a comment

So in my last post when I wrote a bit about my younger sister, I mentioned her creative talents and how she created many beautiful things. I also mentioned how I would share her many creations. This is the first one I’ve decided to share. I believe this was the first article of clothing that she ever made for me. …

Princess Dress for Barbie – Part 2: Sewing the Bodice

May 20, 2021May 21, 2021 / Kitty/ 1 Comment

So after finishing the planning stage of this project, I was ready to start sewing. First, the bodice. This took a bit longer than I had planned, because I guess I should have done a bit more planning. First, I cut out the pieces for the bodice and sleeves from pink satin. Because this fabric frays practically just from touching …

So I was working on a different post that I’ve been meaning to finish and publish, but lately I’ve been absorbed in a totally different project. I’ve spent a lot of time on the preliminaries and it’s gone very slowly, but I’m finally to the point where I have everything I need to get started. This post is going to …

My last posts were about the first blouse I made from a real pattern, and then the second one I made from it. Today I’m showing you the next thing I did with that same pattern. I made it into a dress! For this project I chose a dark green cotton poplin. I also got some light green for a …

Red Silk Sleeveless Blouse – Lekala

October 25, 2020October 25, 2020 / Kitty/ Leave a comment

This is the first garment I made for my youngest sister using a Lekala sewing pattern. She needed something new and fancy to wear to Mass, and this blouse is the one she chose. She was a teen, but I just put her measurements into the women’s template and the fit was really good. I made this blouse two and …

Blue Gored Skirt – Sewing Pattern Test

October 5, 2020October 5, 2020 / Kitty/ 2 Comments

I have posted about my first projects using Lekala sewing patterns: the maroon top, the blue fleece top, and the blue velvet blouse. The next project I did was a test for this sewing pattern from Sewist, Lekala’s sister site. When I first saw the gored skirt I wasn’t sure about it. I thought it looked kind of strange with …
