Many like to start a new year with a challenge, usually that involves eating healthier, exercise more, be a better person or something along that line. I on the other hand decided to sew a jacket and not just any old simple jacket, but a jacket that involved 27 different pattern pieces printed on 78 pages. Like that wasn’t crazy enough this marvellous jacket isn’t even for me!
I have a handsome but reluctant model for you today. He is happy with his two new shirts – not so much having to pay for them by being a model for his mom – WHAAAT?! He is looking for a job with school and I tried to convince him that perhaps this would help to get him discovered. I don’t know why but he just gave me the stink eye – hahaha!
I think its very fitting to post my latest make today as it is Father’s day here in Norway and this one is for the man in my house. I rarely sew for him and when I was looking for fabric for this one he pretended to give me a hard time about all the fabric I buy and then he never gets anything from it. My answer to that was oh honey be careful what you wish for, mwhaha!
Anna is my mother in law and our niece – and now the latest garment I sewed for me! Soon my daughter and I will only have clothes named after the people we love, haha!
Well, hello again and Happy New Year!
It’s about time to get back into the game after a total radio silence since the end of November. I was feeling a bit burnt out after all the craziness in November and Desember so I needed a break from obligations and deadlines. I’ll start the new sewing year with a polo shirt for my hubby, not to shabby I think.
You can imagine my excitement when my 18 year old agreed that I could sew him something and post it on the blog!! So let me introduce you to my very handsome young man!
