🐍 Super September Summer Sunday Sips! 🐍⁠⁠
⁠⁠
This dress is my newest #LammefjordDress made in a rather tissue-thin (but buttery soft) rayon jersey. It's lovely and just the right thing to wear while sipping a drink on the patio on a warm Summer September day (I absolutely insist that summer doesn't end until October!) 🌞⁠⁠
⁠⁠
But. In retrospect, the fabric does feel a little too thin for a dress to wear once October comes around, so I might change it into a tunica instead by cutting it a hip-level. Then I'll use the remnants for another top...⁠⁠
⁠⁠
WHAT DO YOU THINK?⁠⁠
⁠⁠
Should I keep it as is (and save it to wear it next summer) or should I cut it?⁠⁠
⁠⁠

🧵This thread is a GAME CHANGER when sewing knit fabrics!⁠ 🧵⁠
⁠
One of the things that’s always annoyed me when sewing knits on a sewing machine is that hems and neckline edges always have to be stitched with a stretch stitch to both look fine and not pop when you at some point inadvertently overstretch the garment while taking it off.⁠
⁠
I do use my overlocker for most seams when sewing knits. ⁠
⁠
But sometimes, especially when sewing dresses with details, it’s nice to be able to do a straight stitch. The problem is – those seams might pop.⁠
⁠
So I have tested⁠ the new elastic Seraflex thread from @mettler_thread and I'm telling you how to sew with it in my newest blog post. (link in bio)⁠
⁠
It's a game-changer! ⁠
⁠
🧵🧵🧵🧵🧵🧵⁠
⁠
Full disclosure: I first heard of this thread from Ann from @GorgeousFabrics, and she gave me a spool to try out. When I approached Mettler to find out more about the thread, they send me 5 spools as well. All opinions are my own and I did not get paid to write this article. ⁠

🔥 Nicoletta's Lammefjord Dresses are HOT! 🔥⁠⁠
⁠⁠
Nicoletta @dinuvoledicuori loved the #LammefjordDress so much, that she chose to make two versions:⁠⁠
⁠⁠
💗The heart-print dress is cut in cotton jersey ⁠⁠
⁠⁠
AND⁠⁠
⁠⁠
🌼 the flower dress is in viscose jersey.⁠⁠
⁠⁠
Nicoletta cut size 42. She is rather tall, so she lengthened the bodice with 6 cm (2 3/8”) to have the seam under her bust (see blog post in bio). ⁠⁠
She also shortened the skirt by 6 cm (2 3/8”) to make it above the knee.⁠⁠
⁠⁠

NEW ON THE BLOG 👉 Fitting an empire seam!⁠
⁠
The #LammefjordDress , #MariaDenmark404 #SigneDress and #MariaDenmark408 all have horizontal seams. And it's important for the fit and the look that the seams hit in the right spot. ⁠
⁠
So what do you do if you are taller or shorter or have a bigger bust - that takes more fabric - than the pattern was drafted for? ⁠
See how to figure out if you need to alter the pattern and how to by following the link in bio.⁠

BODIES CHANGE - And that's called growing! (right?)⁠⁠
⁠⁠
(swipe for me wearing the same jumpsuit 2 years ago...)⁠⁠
⁠⁠
This jumpsuit is one of my favorite self-made projects ever! It's comfortable (that lovely fishy cotton fabric, the not-too-close-fitting, the pockets), and I feel great wearing it. I wear it at least every other week all summer - and have for the past two summers (three, if you count October 2019 ;-)).⁠⁠
⁠⁠
When I took the picture in front of the pool this week, I realized that I had posted pics of it before - back in October '19 when I had just finished it. And I went to compare the pics. And yes. My body has changed. I have gained some weight, I have longer hair, more wrinkles. ⁠⁠
⁠⁠
And I still think it looks cute!⁠⁠
⁠⁠
Jumpsuit pattern: Sewing Life 0X (hacked per articles in the magazine)⁠⁠
Fabric: "Thanks for all the Fish" cotton lawn from @gorgeousfabric (from 2019, so not in stock, but she has a lot of similar cottons) ⁠⁠

💥 TOOL TIP! 💥⁠
⁠
It's not often I see new notions or tools that I must try out. But I saw this idea on Pinterest and I got to tell ya - It's clever.⁠
⁠
These guys are thread-and-bobbin holders. And I don't know why I haven't thought of this before. With these thingies, I can keep a spool of thread together with the matching bobbin (especially useful when using specialist thread where you want to make sure you use the right thread in the bobbin too!)⁠
⁠
Now, I am using little plastic thingies I got from Amazon. But the tip I saw on Pinterest was for using pipe cleaners. I don't have any of them around the house, so I haven't tried it, but I do believe it could work!⁠

🌻Here is Heidi's Lammefjord Top! 🌻⁠⁠
⁠⁠
I LOVE this striped version and want to copy the look! (Swipe to see the amazing location, btw 🌻🌻🌻)⁠⁠
⁠⁠
Heidi (@heidi_handmadefrenzy) went on a colorful photoshoot showing off her summer stripes!⁠⁠
⁠⁠
She made a size 38 ) and the only change she made was to raise the neckline for modesty by 3.8 cm (1 1/2”) (she shows you how she did that in the magazine that comes with the pattern)⁠⁠
⁠⁠
The fabric is a striped modal knit from @raspberrycreekfabrics⁠⁠

I finally went to Denmark to see my kids, the rest of my family, and Nanna from @howtodofashion.⁠
⁠
And it was lovely! (and also explain why I have been so quiet :-))⁠
⁠
One of the things I miss, since moving to the US 3 years ago, is going to the office and working, seeing Nanna on an almost daily basis. Discussing work, troubleshooting fitting issues, helping each other doing photo shoots. Having coffee breaks. ⁠
⁠
While COVID has been mostly about missing family, seeing coworkers or colleagues and gaining inspiration from the daily brainstorming and chitchatting is something I miss too and zoom meetings just isn't the same,⁠
⁠
If you haven't already - check out @howtodofashion patterns (they are all lovely and vintage-inspired) and have a look at her new workshop areas. I'm a little bit jealous...⁠

❔❓ Do you have separate summer and winter wardrobes???⁠⁠
⁠⁠
I never used to. ⁠⁠
⁠⁠
In Denmark I could always wear my sweaters and long pants in the evenings - even on warm days the nights can be chilly - and I honestly didn't have much summer wear, because temps over 25 C/ 78 F are usually only for a couple of weeks each summer.⁠⁠
⁠⁠
But here in New Jersey, there are clothes that are way too warm to wear from June through September, and in those months, I need to wear lighter clothes that are too cool to wear the rest of the year. So I have started switching the contents of my closet twice a year. Of course, lots of stuff can be worn year-round: T-shirts, dresses that can be worn with tights and jackets during winter, blouses. But some, like this vintage-style shirt dress from #SewingLifeMagazine4 is decidedly SUMMER to me.⁠⁠
I had almost forgotten about it, but there it was - in my spare closet (and it still fits).⁠⁠
⁠⁠
One of the unsung pleasures - re-discovering old faves!⁠⁠

👋🏼 Hi again! ⁠
So I took a social media break right through Me-Made-May. I needed it. But 3 weeks later, I actually started missing posting and reading your posts, so I am back :-)⁠
⁠
Next week I will finally - after 17 months - see my kids, my siblings, and my parents again. Yes. We are going to Denmark for a week and I am looking through my me-made-May outfits to plan my packing list.⁠
⁠
This is one of my favorite outfits from Mid-May when it was still cool enough for jeans and a denim jacket (20 C /68 F). Perfect for Danish summer!⁠
⁠
PANTS: old, worn RTW jeans⁠
TOP: #CrescentLakeDress as a top (from #SewingLifeMagazine10)⁠
JACKET: Thrifted Denim Jacket (was 5 USD!) ⁠

Do I ever feel awkward taking selfies or modeling?⁠
Yes.⁠
Yes, I do!⁠
⁠
But not as much as I used to. ⁠
Practice makes it better - and I honestly also feel that once I turned 40, I stopped caring about what people on the street thought about me. So even outside I don't mind. I do feel embarrassed in front of my kids, though :-) ⁠
⁠
Taking selfies for Instagram, I usually use my phone and a small thingy that connects to the phone via Bluetooth (the red one). It works pretty well and is so much easier than setting a self-timer or doing the clapping thing.⁠
⁠

So. Let's get real. 😳 Monday - Day 3 of Me-made-May - was one of those days where I didn't shower and where I wore work-out clothes all day. 😳⁠⁠
⁠⁠
It got a little chilly with rain and I put on my puff-sleeved leo sweatshirt made from Sewing Life Magazine 8 over my work-out tank (which I didn't make).⁠⁠
To be honest, mostly because I already wore it the other night, so it was not clean to begin with.... 🙈⁠⁠
⁠⁠
We hope to return to higher hygiene standards by day 4!⁠⁠

🌊 Me-Made-May day2 💦 ⁠
#memademay2021⁠
⁠
🏊🏼 It was Sunday. Mostly spend working in the garden, walking with the dog, and swimming in the pool, wearing one of my me-made swimsuits from Sysiden 34 (only available in Danish atm). My husband was the photographer, and he didn't focus on actually showing the bikini top. So if you want to see what it looks like, go down the grid to April and August 2019!⁠

It’s May!
And on May 1st I wore the #sewinglifemagazine10 #crescentlakedress in the blouse version with old tatty cut-offs and swimsuit (me made as well, from #sysiden34).
We were having friends over to celebrate my husband’s birthday (we are all vaccinated, yay!) and was hanging out by the pool. Not the worse day in my world!

So I’ve been quiet 🤫 lately. That’s because I have been busy packing and moving. Again. We moved to a new apartment - with a lot of room for my studio - still in Jersey City 🌃.
This is basically my compressed sewing room, which we moved last night. I’m starting to set it up. See the insta-story for a preliminary tour 😉😊. #mariadenmarksewing #expatwoman #mariadenmark #mariainusa

Here is one of my versions of the #CrescentDress (Sewing Life 10). 🥰⁠
⁠
It's my perfect summer blouse. And I'm actually a little surprised how much I love this style!⁠
⁠
Made in the softest double-gauze - "Stardust" from @atelierbrunette via @jonesandvandermeer - embroidered with silver dots. It's super comfortable and soft and still has a bit of oomph.⁠
⁠
👉🏼 I shortened the sleeves and drafted a cuff to fit my upper arm. A blog post is coming to show how I did it, but it was super simple. The cuff is simply a double folded square that fits around my upper arm. Easy Peasy!⁠
⁠
Pattern available at sewinglife.com and sysiden.dk!⁠

Neue Frise, neues Shirt ☺️
Endlich habe ich Zeit gefunden, mich um meine Haare zu kümmern! Wer es genau wissen will kann mein erstes Reel angucken 😁
Das #shirt ist ein #longshirt und an den #bananen hilco_textil kam ich verständlicherweise einfach nicht vorbei 😅
Weil ich nach der „Mach dein Ding“ Sache einfach mal was ganz schnelles nähen wollte, habe ich mich für ein #kirstenkimonotee mariadenmarksewing entschieden. Da ich genug Stoff hatte und ein Kleid wollte, habe ich es einfach verlängert. Nicht lang genug, wie sich rausstellte, es ist doch ganz schön knapp geraten 😂 Macht aber nichts, ich trag es einfach mit Leggins 😅 Mal gucken, vielleicht zeige ich euch auch ein Foto ohne 🤣
Ach ja und die tollen Ohrringe blieben leider nur fürs #fotoshooting 😩 Das Zitrönchen wird einfach von allem magisch angezogen, dass in meinen Ohrläppchen steckt oder um meinen Hals baumelt 😬 Und ich trage doch soooo gerne Schmuck...

#3yearsago 😍 - die Drea noch mit Vollpony! 😅
Man mag es kaum glauben, aber das war tatsächlich mein erstes Shirt, was ich mir genäht hatte! Meine #Premiere sozusagen. Also ich hatte zuvor schon ein paar Kleider und einige Shirts für meine Jungs genäht, aber wie gesagt: DAS war mein erstes Shirt! Ein #kimonotee von mariadenmarksewing ! 💖 Den Stoff habe ich so geliebt! Mit Glitzer-Flamingos!!!! 😍 Leider hat der Stoff sehr schnell die eigentliche Farbe verloren. Und das, obwohl er gar nicht sooooo günstig war. 🤷🏻‍♀️ Kennt ihr das Problem auch? Manche Stoffe, egal ob niedrig- oder hochpreisig, waschen sich enorm schnell aus. Und dabei nehme ich schon immer das gute Colorwaschmittel und sowieso keinen Weichspüler... 🤔
Egal! Heute sehe ich mir einfach das Foto an und schwelge in Erinnerungen... 🥰 ...damals, als wir alle noch unsere neuen Frühlingsoutfits genäht haben... und an Mundschutz noch nicht zu denken war... heute stehe ich am Tisch und schneide 26 Masken zu... 😥
Aber ich bin mir sicher: es kommen auch wieder andere Zeiten! 💖
Bleibt fein gesund! 🍀💖

My last evening in Denmark before moving to US. It has been an emotional week. Having farewell parties and hugging and crying and trying to fit everything (including our bikes) into 10 suitcases/boxes. But soon, we are on our way to new adventures... 🇩🇰 👉🏼🇺🇸😎 #mariadenmark #mariainusa #expatlife

[WERBUNG] Ich schiebe hier mal kurz den Staub zur Seite um zu verkünden, dass die Plottdatei von hamburgerliebe jetzt bei allesfuerselbermacher zu bekommen ist. Seit einer Woche hatte ich Probleme mit der instagram App. Jetzt scheint es wieder zu klappen. Bald gibt's hier auch wieder mehr zu sehen. Im Hintergrund passiert eine Menge!

Hab den schönen Stoff nun restlos vernäht, entstanden ist ein #kimonotee von #mariadenmark (freebie)
Hab den Schnitt noch direkt an mich angepasst, nur der Ausschnitt ist etwas sommerlich weit geworden 🙈

°°° k i m o n o t e e °°° Alice muss warten, da mir das passende Bündchen fehlt. 😕 Also zeige ich euch erst einmal ein neues #kimonotee. Es ist schnell genäht und hat eine gute Passform. 👌 Den Plott #gypsysoul gibt es im Silhouette-Store.

„Smile - you are beautiful“ ❤️☀️. Ich finde ja jeder sollte mit einem Lächeln durchs leben spazieren 😊. Natürlich kann man nicht immer super happy und gut gelaunt sein. ❤️ Ich habe hier ein weiteres Kimono Tee genäht und diesmal mit Textilfarbe veredelt. Uni aber dich irgendwie besonders ☀️. #kimonotee #mariadenmark #mariadenmarksewing #mariadenmarkkimonotee #textilfarbe #smile #kreativesnähen

Zum #wiederholungsTräger Mittwoch zeige ich Euch heute meinen #basicstrickmantel von kibadoo 😊 und der wird wirklich sehr oft und gern getragen. Ein tolles Basic Teil, was in keinem Kleiderschrank fehlen sollte. Den Stoff habe ich im letzten Herbst bei megastoffen auf dem stoffmarkt.holland entdeckt.

Darunter versteckt sich noch ein #kimonotee von #mariadenmark aus einem Jersey vom #maybachufer.

[Werbung | unbeauftragt] 🍂🍃Auch, wenn es hier die Tage etwas ruhiger war, habe ich fleißig meine Herbst-Klamotten durchgeschaut...🍃🍂🍁 Bevor ich mit der "Herbstproduktion" beginne, wollte ich einen Überblick, was ich wirklich brauche und wovon ich noch genug habe. ✂👗Hier ist eine meiner Lieblings-Freizeit-Kombi für den Herbst: ein #kimonotee mit Longsleeve drunter. 💙 (genäht im Frühling) Klar, das ein oder andere werde ich sicher auch nähen, weil es mir einfach so gut gefällt... 🙈 Ich will aber nicht unmengen Sachen nähen, die ich eigentlich gar nicht brauche. Ich finde, manchmal ist weniger mehr! 🌍 Wie macht ihr das? Näht ihr um "zu nähen" (oder zu bloggen) oder nur, was ihr wirklich braucht? Habt einen schönen Abend! 💛🍃🍂🍁👱_________________________________________ #mariadenmark #herbst #nähenistwiezaubernkönnen #ontheblog #memade #happy #nähblogger #stoffliebe #nähenfürmich #nähenfürerwachsene #basteltante

Der schöne Schwalben Stoff wurde nun auch zu einem #kimonootee Shirt, ein #schnittmuster von der mariadenmarksewing, verarbeitet!💕 Ich habe von der 0,7m jeden Zipfel verarbeitet🙈
Wenn er nicht für meine Schwägerin wäre hätte ich ihn glatt selbst behalten😎

Was näht ihr gerade für Frauen? Erzählt doch mal!
