Cinderella*Zwergen*Mode EVITA

There are so many amazing new patterns coming from our designers in Germany, it seems there are new ones each week appearing at Crafty Mamas.

Cinderella*Zwergen*Mode recently released EVITA. A beautiful set of flare pants and cute square neck top. EVITA is easy to sew, quick to sew up and lends itself to whatever your imagination can come up with! I trialled it last night- having to make some adjustments for a little ones tummy. It handled the adjustments perfectly. So, here is my muslin ( fabrics are all from the stash...note the Campan sleeves..LOVE...). I am aiming for a modelled shot a little later today!

Good Friday Sewing- Farbenmix QUIARA, RIVIERA Leggins

 Click to enlarge!

Another beautiful QUIARA tunic, this time in REVEL sweater knit from the shop and gorgeous JNY design knits for the leggins ( SCKL Riviera pattern).
I added one of Janeas World woven tags to the front, Trouschka, with some danglies in her hair.

QUIARA is a fabulous versatile pattern, giving you the option of a closer fitting top or a roomier tunic. Suitable for knit fabrics.

Some * HEART* Sewing!

I LOVE these fabrics! Pattern is FARBENMIX Quiara tunic top, long sleeve, with hood. Leggins are the Riviera pattern, by Nancy Langdon from the book Sewing Clothes Kids Love ( you all have that one, yes??). I love the bell shape of the Quiara, it is brilliant for kids with tummies.

The fabrics are some favourites of mine...

HEARTS knit from JNY Designs of Sweden, with Stripey Knit in red/white, and the hood is in Blood Red, in a new knit coming soon. Slightly thicker than STELLA and a bit warmer- ideal for winter knits.

And although I do have an embroidery machine ( somewhere in there, amongst my 7 machines...) I really like these cute little Janeas World woven badges for a quick fix of super cuteness!

So nice to settle back into some sewing after such a busy week away last week!
