Today, almost 4 years after moving to the US, I got the keys for my new Sewing School in New Jersey! 🎉 Yes! I’ll yet again be teaching in-person classes in sewing, pattern drafting and fitting. And I can’t wait!
This picture shows me after getting the keys, waiting on hold for 30 minutes to talk to the power company. It was cold, but worth it!
Registration for spring 2022 classes is open on MariaDenmark.com What do you want to learn?

🛠️Overlocker/Serger Sewing Super Tip (save for later)⁠
⁠
When Sewing knits one of the things to be aware of is that they can easily be stretched out of shape as you sew them ⁠
⁠
It's super annoying, and also a fit issue, when the seams end up being longer than they are supposed to.⁠
⁠
This is why your overlocker has a differential feed!⁠
⁠
The differential feed controls the feed dogs that transport the fabric as you sew: ⁠
⁠
👉🏼 When the setting is 1, the typical setting, the front, and back feed dogs move at the same speed. ⁠
⁠
👉🏼 When the setting is larger than 1, the FRONT feed moves faster than the back feed, causing the fabric to be pushed together and NOT be stretched out of shape.⁠
⁠
✨This is the setting you might want to use when sewing knits! ✨⁠
⁠
TEST on scraps to find the perfect setting for your fabric⁠

The new #carolyncoatigan sewing pattern probably produces the most "Hygge"-garment of all my patterns (yes I will share in my stories how to pronounce Hygge!) ⁠
⁠
The coatigan is designed to feel like wearing a blanket (Only slightly more stylish ;-) AND with amazing build-in pockets!) and it does. And sewn in a heavy sweater knit it's even warmer than the standard blanket.⁠
⁠
A few weeks ago I wore it during a Sunday afternoon bonfire with friends. And yes. I had dog treats in my pocket.⁠
⁠
The Carolyn Coatigan is available in Sewing Life. www.SewingLife.com⁠

✨Introducing the NEW Carolyn Coatigan & Ginny Cardigan Patterns:✨⁠
⁠
The Perfect Layering Garments for your winter – and gift – sewing!⁠
⁠
701 - Carolyn Coatigan: An excellent transition coat - or the ultimate "hygge"-garment in winter: A cozy coatigan. #carolyncoatigan⁠
⁠
702 - Ginny Cardigan ⁠
The perfect layering garment: A classic cardigan.⁠
#GinnyCardigan⁠
⁠
Both are fast projects and excellent gifts and they are available inside Sewing Life right now!⁠
⁠
www.SewingLife.com⁠
⁠
I enjoy wearing the coatigan inside on cold mornings and for hygge-afternoons at the firepit with friends. Try wearing it with a belt almost as a coat dress.⁠
⁠
The cardigan is a classic cute cardi that goes with everything. Sew it in basic colors to throw over tees and blouses or make it in fun fabrics and try wearing it as a sweater. ⁠
⁠

🛠️Tool-time! ⁠
⁠
As an avid knits-sewer (Yes, I really really enjoy sewing and wearing knits) one of the first MUST-HAVE tools for me is a bunch of pattern weights.⁠
⁠
I have used:⁠
⁠
- Tea-light holders⁠
- Rocks⁠
- Cats (don't ask)⁠
- Tape dispensers⁠
- Cans of tuna⁠
- Kid's hands (I didn't chop them off - but I made the kids hold down on the fabric)⁠
- Boughten pattern weight bags⁠
- Custom-made metal stamped pieces of iron⁠
⁠
And some worked better than others! The custom-made weights were the best. But also super heavy, so I couldn't bring them with me when I moved to the US.⁠
⁠
Instead, I went to the hardware store and got large washers.⁠
And that's what I mostly use now. And they work just as well, are heavy enough to hold the paper and fabric in place, and are flat enough, that they don't interfere with my cutting! ⁠
⁠
Also they are really cheap!⁠
⁠
Do you use pattern weights? And what type do you prefer?⁠

🧵 (Help me find the perfect fabric!) 🧵⁠
⁠
Yes, this is an outfit repeat. That I continue to repeat every week .... ⁠
⁠
Now that it has gotten colder I gravitate more and more towards my sweatshirts. This one is one of my faves for two reasons:⁠
⁠
1) The fabric is a soft true sweatshirt fabric (with the soft, warm, fuzzy, wrong side) and also a cute print!⁠
Now. I have been looking for more true sweatshirt fabric all over the internet, I feel like, but I can't seem to find the really soft stuff anymore.. (except in kids' print). ⁠
⁠
⁠
2) The sleeves have a slight puff. Not too much, but enough to make it more feminine. ⁠
⁠
I made this sweatshirt last winter. Originally it was a sweater dress #SewingLife8, that I shortened into a sweatshirt, that gets so much more wear.⁠
⁠
ANd me wearing it so much inspired me when I drafted Holiday Gifts for the Sewing Life members. I am really looking forward to showing you them. ⁠
⁠
Do you have any tips on where I can find soft cotton sweatshirt fabric??⁠
⁠

❓Do you do Outfit Copying?⁠
⁠
✂️ Who do you follow for outfit inspiration? What have you copied? Tell me 👇🏼⁠
⁠
Yesterday a post from @joyljosephs showed up in my feed via the hashtag #wearyourwardrobe⁠
⁠
She was wearing a navy sweater with leather pants and blue shoes, and a very cute bag as well. ⁠
Well, I am trying to rethink my usual 4 repeats, so I decided to try it out today. ⁠
⁠
I made the sweater 4 years ago - it's a sweatshirt pattern (which is being revived soon) sewn in a wonderful waffle-knit from Copenhagen-based #SkipperStoffer. ⁠
Ribbing from same. This sweater is actually a tiny bit too warm still to wear inside. But comfy!⁠
⁠
The leggings are from @spanx and feel exactly as comfy as workout tights. Boots are @eccoshoes. Earrings are from High Bridge local @saltylemonapothecary⁠

✂️ Hear me out: Your Paper Scissors are just as important as your Fabric Scissors! ✂️⁠
⁠
Yet, I have still to see an article about what to look for when shopping for paper scissors. ⁠
⁠
But here's my advice:⁠
⁠
Get a large, sharp, pair of scissors. You don't have to spend a fortune. But preferably get the kind that has a screw, so that you can adjust the tightness of the blades.⁠
⁠
My paper scissors were labeled fabric scissors in Ikea (they are at least a decade old, and they don't carry this kind anymore, unfortunately). And it's a really good pair of scissors - that I paid about 3 Euros for.⁠
⁠
The large blades make it easier to cut accurately, and the point is still sharp enough to use for smaller areas.⁠
⁠
Maintenance is easy: Once in a while, I remember to wipe the blades. I also add a drop of sewing machine oil to the screw a couple of times a week. And that's it. You now have your scissors ready for when you are doing pattern alterations, changes, or drafting.⁠
⁠
How long have you had your paper scissors? Do you have a favorite pair (I would like to get an extra pair)?⁠
⁠

💪🏼What does your shirt say? 💪🏼⁠
⁠
So. A recent update on my @ancestry concluded that I am even more boring than I thought...⁠
New percentages show that I am 100% genetically from Denmark and South of Sweden (which is the same, geographically). My ancestors were not getting around much!⁠
⁠
After the initial disappointment, I decided to embrace my Viking-ness. When I was in Denmark in October I got (replicate) Viking earrings at the National museum of Denmark. (See them in Stories)
⁠
And I decided on the print for one of my many plain black tees. I cut VIKING runes in gold transfer vinyl and pressed them on using my normal iron on Saturday before going out for drinks/dancing for the first time in forever.⁠
⁠
And I have never had more questions about my shirt before...⁠
⁠
VIKING. It says VIKING :-)⁠
⁠
⁠
It has been over a year since I last played with the transfer vinyl, and it was fun!⁠
⁠
Now.. What does YOUR shirt say?⁠
⁠

We almost always only see the front of a garment on the Instagram grid. ⁠
The photo of the back, if it's even there, is often hidden somewhere in a carousel.⁠
⁠
But the back can be a significant part of the design. Think about graphic tees with the point of the joke on the back. Or Jackets with a fun print or embroidery.⁠
⁠
Or, indeed, what you thought was a dull, basic boatneck dress, has a cute curvy V-neck cut at the back.⁠
⁠
With MariaDenmark 409 #LittleBasicDress - you can make just that - if you want.⁠
⁠
Added benefit - it's easier to reach the zipper!⁠

I am rather obsessed with this trench coat made from silk taffeta. It's from a new forthcoming pattern and if you head over to Sarah's account you will see more images including a more dressed down styling... though how you can dress down this stunner I have no idea!

The new pattern by mariadenmarksewing that will be available in the first issue of Sewing Life magazine is this trench coat! I made mine from a gorgeous vintage silk taffeta, and I love how it can be dressed up and down. I teamed it with my #phoebeflares for this picture, and got a bit excited with the styling and did a #gibsongirlhair do. My family said I look like crazy woman, but I thought it was fun! This coat is a joy to sew, there are lots of details that make it look complicated but is actually not as hard as it looks! It is one to take your time over and just enjoy the process! mariadenmarksewing

Un #kirstenkimonotee de l'excellente mariadenmarksewing. Patron gratuit, déjà testé et approuvé, j'envisage toute une série pour l'été.
J'ai voulu celui-ci très évasé dans le bas (max de la 1/2 laize).
Coupon minuscule de viscose mondialtissus.
Pour avoir un tee shirt d'une longueur décente j'ai dû utiliser toute la hauteur, il ne restait rien pour l'encolure... Comme le tissu est extensible dans les 2 sens et que j'aime bien tenter mes petites expériences (j'adore économiser/optimiser la marchandise), qu'à cela ne tienne, j'ai coupé la bande d'encolure dans l'autre sens! 🤫 Hé bien ça marche aussi! 😉 À voir dans la durée mais franchement pas de quoi s'en priver.

#flatlayfridiy No. 8 / 2019

Ich wäre bereit für etwas mehr Sonnenschein 🌞 mein erstes Basic-Shirt für diesen Sommer ist fertig.

Das Kimono Tee Shirt ist ein kostenloses Schnittmuster und kann beliebig selbst angepasst werden. Ich habe das Bündchen am Hals mit der geschlossenen Stoffseite angenäht und habe so eine offene Kante, die sich schön rollt. Auch der Saumabschluss unten ist offen und rollt sich ein. Den Ärmel habe ich mit einem schmalen Stück versäubert, da ich die Schulternaht nicht sichtbar haben wollte. Dann den Ärmel hochgekrempelt und an einigen Stellen fixiert. Fertig ist das Shirt 🤘

Schnitt: Kimono Tee von mariadenmarksewing
Stoff: grau-melierter Jersey von xbarregensburg

Day 2️⃣5️⃣of #memademay2021 hosted by sozoblog 💐

I tried today, I really did, honestly, but the camera doesn’t lie
Excited by the weather forecast for today, I made a t-shirt (the mariadenmarksewing kimono t-shirt - this is version 4) I bought this cheerful fabric from koalakreations (it was in the remnant basket and, yes, I matched the stripes at the side seams)
I wore it under a sweatshirt 😕under a coat 🙁accessorised with thick tights ☹️ and a grumpy face 😠 Happy Days 🤡

[Werbung - Stoffprobenähen] Oh, ich hoffe, der Sommer kommt noch mal zurück! Herbst, ich bin noch nicht bereit für dich. Ich will doch noch ein paar Mal dieses Outfit tragen, bevor es bis nächsten Sommer im Schrank verschwindet!

Vor einigen Wochen habe ich für meinen Sohn ein Oversize-Shirt mit überschnittennen Ärmeln und breiten Ärmelumschlägen genäht. Und seitdem will ich auch so eins.

Als Basis habe ich das #Kimonotee von mariadenmarksewing genommen und einfach eine Nummer größer zugeschnitten und die Ärmelumschläge ergänzt. Hach, genau so hatte ich mir das vorgestellt. Immer wieder schön, wenn ein #Patternhack gelingt!

Stoff:
Die Shabby Roses sind ein Design von rebekah.ginda und ab heute abend bei

I've been holding on to a bit of a secret!! 😁 I am the newest contributor to Sewing Life Magazine! The latest issue includes a pattern for a classic blazer, that is a wardrobe must-have!
//
I sewed mine using a ponte knit, and rayon bemberg lining. The pattern is designed for wovens, but obviously works great in ponte as well! I LOVE this fun polka dot blazer. I styled it 3 ways in this issue, as well as showing you how to make easy patch pockets to bring a casual fun vibe to this otherwise gorgeously tailored piece!
//
Fabric is Refined Ponte and Rayon Bemberg Lining from joann_stores

I've linked to the magazine in my bio! 💕

This sweater knit dress from Sewing Life 8 magazine is so comfortable and has great style! I’m a pocket girl so I added some front pockets💕. I followed the additional tutorial and created the bishop sleeves. It’s an XL cut graded to a L through the waist and hips. I didn’t add any length as I wanted a shorter cut because of using a heavier knit fabric. It’s cozy, classic and channels the 60’s- although I’m not really a Twiggy... more of a ‘Branchie’ 😍

Special thanks to my lovely girl squidwardsheffer for my makeup and photos💕

#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! 🍀💖

Mein #ootd
Wickelrock, Shirt und kleine Tasche, alles aus Baumwolle. Das Shirt ist das schnelle #mariadenmark - immer wieder gern genäht. Für den Rock brauchte ich 3 Meter mal 50cm Stoff, das ganze in passende Falten gelegt und voila - da ist er. Und die kleine Tasche musste aus Ermangelung von Rocktaschen einfach noch dran.
Ganz lieben Dank für die Fotos, liebe babsi_13 ❤

Kirsten Kimono tee complete! This free pattern by mariadenmarksewing was a quick make but my slippery fabric made me have to Try a bit harder 😀 I couldn’t resist this super soft rayon spandex blend. I haven’t had to make my own seam allowances on a pattern before so that was new AND I figured out how to use my twin needle! Haha so for an easy make I learned new things and am grateful and can’t wait to learn some more! #kirstenkimonotee #mariadenmark #memade #ikat #isewmyownclothes #imademyclothes #sewingknits

Mein #dienstagsdetail ist, das kleine Veränderungen schon reichen, um einem schlichten Shirt eine andere Optik zu verschaffen 😊. Ich habe mal wieder einen meiner liebsten Nosh-Stoffe vernäht. Der Schnitt ist das Freebook Kirsten-Tee von MariaDenmark. Ich habe hier den Halsausschnitt etwas vergrößert und ein Halsbündchen angenäht. Damit ich das Shirt etwas raffen kann, ist unten im Saum ein Gummiband eingenäht 💙. My #tuesdaydetails is that small changes are enough to give a simple shirt a different look.
I have sewn one of my favourite nosh fabrics again. The pattern is the freebook Kirsten-Tee by MariaDenmark. I have enlarged the neckline a little bit and sewed on a neck Cuff. So that I can ruffle the shirt a little bit, an elastic band is sewn in the hem 💙. Schnitt: Kirsten-Tee mariadenmarksewing
Stoff: Nosh Organics
Rock und Tasche selbst gekauft 😉
