And well, anyone who knows me, knows that I will not say no unless I think I can’t make it. So said and done. Today when C was at the neighbor, playing with his bestie, I had time to create. 1.5 hour from cutting the fabric til the text was on there. Not too bad 😀 The pattern is a Jelly shirt fro the creator Puperita. First one I make but not the last. Easy pattern and came out great!

The 3rd , I went to Sweden for 10 days. So from the 14th May til now, I have used up roughly 6 rolls of tracing paper. They are 10 m long and 1 m wide. It is safe to say that I have been tracing some patterns lately. ???? And I still have more to go before the production of clothes start. I want the ones I have printed, traced, before cutting fabric because of the simple fact, it is so much more fun to sew than to trace!!

So a friend of mine asked me to make a print for her partner who has 2 kids and one bonus kid. Said and done! I became very happy with the outcome! I imagined it being harder than it was to make it straight. It is strange, on the picture it looks like DEZE it gray, it is not. It is white!

And as usual when I work, I have company by my son. He says he is working too! With glue and paper, that is his work haha.

]]> 345 Orders done and now more patterns! https://thesewingswede.com/2019/06/01/orders-done-and-now-more-patterns/ Sat, 01 Jun 2019 06:24:11 +0000 https://thesewingswede.com/?p=247 So, I have bought some more patterns that I need to draw. I came over some woven fabric but I didn’t have any patterns for it. But thanks to Puperita, now I do! I also have washed ALL the fabrics to not have to wash all the clothes separately after making them. To save some water and electricity. So, after going to the supermarket, I am going to continue the drawing of patterns. I can’t wait til I am done so I can start creating! The picture is of pattern for headbands, nice use of scraps. Pattern is from Hallonsmula.

Except for pressing on some shirts for a friend who went to a Backstreet boys concert and starting another friends wish, I have been drawing patterns. The hing is, there is like 8 or 9 sizes in a pattern, and 4-8 pattern pieces so… It is a lot of drawing and cutting. So I am doing it all now so I don’t have to do it later, then I can focus on sewing instead wohooo!

I have found a really awesome pattern creator, Puperita, found her on Etsy. I will have 8 or so, clothes from her patterns in my shop. Also, my favorites, Patterns for Pirates and it’s sister Made for Mermaids and Mamma can do it. Go check them out!
