This is the first complete project I made this year, the Visby Henley Top from Itch to Stitch. The Visby Henley Top is a raglan top with different options: with or without placket, with or without hoodie, and with or without band. I made view A, with placket. The placket was the reason why I […]
T-Shirt Bergen
This is a small project I made last summer. I am in great need of simple T-shirts, and I have a good fitting pattern (the ITS Idyllwild), but I was reluctant to start. Plain simple T-shirts are a bit boring. So when I read a review of the book “Alles Jersey” I was intrigued because […]
Itch to Stitch Bellavista Top
I participated in one last testing before I had to pack away my sewing machine for the move. It is the Bellavista Top from Itch-to-Stitch. The Bellavista Top comes in a comfortable swing bodice with a center-front panel. It also comes with two neck options and two sleeve options. I choose the cowl neck and long […]
2017 Sewing Year in Review
A Happy New Year to all of you! Hopefully you are not yet tired of reading “year in review” posts. I am a bit late, but due to our move I am still unpacking boxes and trying to get rid of the chaos. I had hoped to catch up and blog all projects from 2017, […]
I am moving
I hope you all had a lovely holiday and spent a few quite days with your family. I was at my mother’s as every year, but returned one day earlier, as we are moving into a new flat on the 29th. This is also the reason why it was so quite here. Besides work there […]

Itch to Stitch Lago Tank
I made a few items I haven’t blogged about yet. One of them is the Lago Tank, a free pattern from Itch to Stitch. Here I wear the top with my already very faded Angelia shorts in Bastia, Corsica, where we spend a lovely week end of October. I made the Lago Tank sometime during […]
Sinclair Patterns: Danielle Batwing Top
On a whim I applied for a pattern testing for Sinclair Patterns. I never sewed a Sinclair pattern before, so I was quite exited when I was chosen as a tester. The new pattern is the Danielle Batwing Top, a loose fitting top with tight cuffs and bottom band which allows to drape the top […]
New in the shop: Newport Top
Here in northern Germany summer has come to an end and I am already thinking about sewing for fall. A perfect start for your fall sewing is the Newport Top from Itch to Stitch, which is now available in the German translation in my shop. So, all of you who are German speaking, please go […]
Itch to Stitch Chai Shirt & Dress
Shirt dresses are popping up everywhere at the moment and I had one on my todo list for quite a while. When I saw the Chai dress from Kennis from Itch to Stitch I was sold and applied for the testing without second thought. The dress features a classic collar with collar stand, close fitting […]
