Burda 9439 - Girls T-shirt

I was looking for a dressed up t-shirt to make for the little girls.  When we were at Fabric Depot last weekend I found Burda 9439, a super cute t-shirt with puffy sleeves.  I've never made a Burda pattern so I thought that I would break from my Jalie and Oliver & S patterns and give it a try.  This turned out cute to the max. The only difficulty I encountered with this pattern was copying it, I had to trace it a couple of times to get the correct size.  The fabric is Riley Blake's - Happy Flappers in knit.  I made 2 in size 5 for Alyssa and 2 in size 8 for Amalia.

More Oliver & S Yoga Pants

I know that I have a winning pattern when I make it over and over and then some more.  This is the case with Oliver & S's Nature Walk Yoga Pants.   I made 3 in size 5 for Alyssa and 2 in size 8 for Amalia.  The fabric was a chocolate ponte, I only purchased 4 yards and was quite happy that it made 5 pairs of pants.  The chocolate brown should coordinate with the Riley Blake - Happy Flappers.

Raglan T-Shirts in Happy Flappers

The little girls chose owls as their theme for this falls clothes.  I purchased quite a bit of Riley Blakes' Happy Flappers collection from Fabric.com.  This is an Oliver & S Field Trip Raglan T-Shirt in two of the knits.  The turned out really cute!  There should be lots of owl themed items coming up.

Jalie #970 Relaxed Fit Jeans

I finished 4 pairs of these jeans a few weeks ago.  This is by far the best jeans pattern I've used.  I made 2 pairs with owls and 2 plain pairs in a brown lightly stretchy denim.  They turned out amazing, the pictures don't do them justice and the fit on the little girls is perfect!

Hats!!

I went on a knitting spree.  I found these cute hat kits up in a yarn shop in Everett WA and bought them on a whim.  The kit is DMC's Top This! The blue and grey on on the end was some yarn from my stash and an attempt at making my own pattern.

More Comicon

Riley as Eowyn I used a Jalie t-shirt pattern.  Maria was Petra from Ender's Game in a blue jump suit.  I made the jump suit by putting together patterns from KWIK Sew for children.  I put the button down shirt and pants pattern together and put a zipper down the front.  Matthew was Frodo from Lord of the Rings.  I used the cape pattern from the Oliver and S book Little Things to Sew.  They made a cute bunch!!

Eowyn dress for Emerald City Comicon

This is an Eowyn dress that I made for Riley to wear to the Emerald City Comicon.  I modified a Jalie t-shirt pattern by extending it to ankle length in an A line.  It turned out awesome for Tuesday can you make me a costume for Friday request.  I used the rest of the grey knit to make some raglan sleeping t-shirts for Alyssa.
