Sunday picnic dress BLOG TOUR

October 29, 2014October 29, 2014 Ana Sofia22 Comments

You may already noticed some lovely vintage patterns designed by the super talented Suz: Sewpony Vintage here on the blog. It’s not a secret that I love to test new patterns yet probably not for the most obvious reasons. I actually love to test my own skills by sewing a pattern as per the designer instructions and… Continue reading Sunday picnic dress BLOG TOUR

The little Prince(ss)

“And now here is my secret, a very simple secret: It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye.” ― Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, The Little Prince I couldn’t sew everything I had planned for this KCW (again, I was over-ambitious) – there are still so much… Continue reading The little Prince(ss)

Obviously, this KCW is also a great opportunity (and motivation) for starting my girl’s winter wardrobe.

Usually most of the patterns I truly love will be made at least three times in the same season (and I’m not talking about sewing it for 3 different… Continue reading Let’s do it again 🙂

October 21, 2014October 21, 2014 Ana Sofia19 Comments

In case you missed it in my last post, KCW is back 🙂 And that means, I’m once again struggling sewing, taking photos (the most challenging part) and posting about it, all in the few daylight hours I have left when my kids return from school 🙂 So, this week will be about not raising your… Continue reading KCW – Twill and starts

(Starting) Fall sewing

October 13, 2014October 14, 2014 Ana Sofia21 Comments

After a bit hiatus, I’m back on the sewing blog routine (at least, that’s what I hope). Every new season I drafted a list of the sewing projects I wish to accomplish (yes, I think I’ve said it before, I’m “that type of person”: the one that writes lists for everything. And yes, it doesn’t… Continue reading (Starting) Fall sewing
