Waarom naai ik eigenlijk mijn eigen kleding? Originaliteit, pasvorm, mindfulness, het zijn allemaal redenen waarom ik regelmatig achter mijn naaimachine kruip.

Not sure why, but lately I typically don't make ju Not sure why, but lately I typically don't make just one, but two versions of the same pattern. This is a favorite top pattern of mine, which I made in a dress version. I also figured out I can wear a skirt over it so I can wear it as a top, too :) PATTERN Dress 3C from Burda Easy 04/2019. It's a pretty simple design and I just love the square neckline. Already made two tops of it before. FABRIC I bought this pretty rib jersey fabric at @budgetstoffen. I think it really works well for these types of dresses as it's a little sturdier then regular jersey. The teal one was "dark petrol" and the pink one "raspberry red" #squareneckline #budgetstoffen #burdaeasy #burdaeasy042019 #burdaeasy2019
Summer is drawing near so I thought it would be ti Summer is drawing near so I thought it would be time to post about my Christmas dress 😆 I made two of these faux wrap dresses late last year, the black one to wear for Christmas dinners/parties and the red during summer. PATTERN it's the Kelli dress by @patternsforpirates It looked super glam on the preview pictures so I decided I needed to make it for Christmas. FABRIC the black is (kinda cheapo) velvet from @megastoffen and the red one comes from @aboekenstoffen in Amsterdam. It's bamboo, which I had never worked with before but was very curious about. It's very stretchy and flimsy and I guess that's why I won't dare to wear it much 😅 MODIFICATIONS I took out some extra space in the back center and changed the curve of the skirt a little. To be honest I ended up not liking the skirt, so by now I've already refashioned the black velvet one to a top, which will get much more wear in this way! #p4pkellidress #kellidress #patternsforpirates #velvetdress #bamboodress
Hello hello, long time no see! Here's one of my re Hello hello, long time no see! Here's one of my recent refashions: I turned my plaid Orla dress by @frenchnavynow_ into a miniskirt. To be honest it wasn't such a difficult transformation as there was plenty of fabric in the gathered skirt to turn it into another version of my favorite pencil skirt pattern. The Orla dress is a free sewing pattern for a dress in a woven fabric and absolutely great for a beginner, but I realized I almost never wore it and it was time to make a more versatile item out of it. #sewing #refashion #freesewingpattern #orladress #frenchnavyorladress
This summer has been a little crazy 🤪 and I hav This summer has been a little crazy 🤪 and I haven't had much time to spend on my blog or Instagram... So there's finally a new post on my poor neglected blog about the Shelby dress I made in a super cute flowerly viscose. Although I love the vibe of the dress I don't think I'll wear it much as the fit isn't great for me and it's also a bit too short for my liking. PATTERN Shelby dress by @truebias The dress view with length A in size 36, which turned out too big for me. FABRIC pastel green viscose with tiny flowers that I bought in Athens a few months ago. It's so cute! MODIFICATIONS I moved the ties to the side seam, had to take it a lot because it was so large, and somehow the hem was short at some sides and when I evened it out it became much shorter than what I like... Ooooops... #sewing #Imakemyownclothes #truebiasshelby #truebiaspatterns #viscosedress #90sdress #buttondowndress

Trying a different perspective 📸 This skirt has Trying a different perspective 📸 This skirt has the longest hem I've ever made but it's so much swishy fun 😆 As always, more pics and details on my blog (link in bio). PATTERN La Boheme maxi wrap skirt by @vanessapouzet with a huge ruffle which is seriously 7 meters long... It looks like a big snail when you cut it, pretty funny :D FABRIC Red floral viscose from @budgetstoffen which I love for this pattern! MODIFICATIONS I shortened the skirt by 10 cm and also shortened the waist ties. #sewing #sewingmaxiskirt #maxiskirt #laboheme #vanessapouzetlaboheme #vanessapouzetpattern #redskirt

Meet my new favorite dress! It's a modified versio Meet my new favorite dress! It's a modified version of the Magnolia dress and I just love how the red dotted viscose works with the pattern. PATTERN Magnolia dress by @deer_and_doe_patterns . It's the third time I made this dress, but I made some modifications this time. FABRIC A dark red viscose with black dots. I bought it for dirt cheap at the @lapjesmarktutrecht a few months ago. MODIFICATIONS I changed the skirt for a massive circle skirt that makes twirling around so much fun :D The sleeves are also a bit different, they're based on the long sleeves but then with a few pleats. #ddmagnolia #ddmagnoliadress #deeranddoemagnolia #deeranddoe #viscosedress #lapjesmarktutrecht #isewmyownclothes
Whoops, it's been a while since I posted anything Whoops, it's been a while since I posted anything on here! I was working remotely from Greece for a couple of weeks so I was way too busy with being at the beach in my time off 😆 Here's my version of the super popular Eve dress. Complete details are on my blog, but here's the summary: PATTERN Eve dress by @sewoveritlondon I made the version with the butterfly sleeves and a level hem. The fit isn't great though, the neckline gapes so I need a safety pin. FABRIC a viscose fabric by @vandervorstmodestoffen (I bought a lot of fabric there last year) which is a good fit for the pattern but I feel like the crazy print doesn't suit me at all... MODIFICATIONS I finished the neckline differently than what I'm supposed to and put biaistape on the inside. I made the holes in the side seam bigger so I can pull the dress tighter. I wish I would've changed the sleeves for a different design though. I mean, it gets super wrinkly when you wear it under a jacket... How do you girls deal with that?! #sewoveriteve #soievedress #sewoverit #isewmyownclothes #viscosedress
Pretty happy to be taking photos outside again :) Pretty happy to be taking photos outside again :) After fiddling around with lots of lycra and new sewing patterns, I thought it was time for circle skirt number 100000! PATTERN A simple half circle skirt which is based on the @freesewing_org Sandy circle skirt. FABRIC Not entirely sure what kind of fabric this is, maybe a mix of cotton and polyester? White and tiny pink flowers are usually too sweet for my liking but this time I couldn't resist this cute remant. I bought it some time ago at @vandervorstmodestoffen in Helmond. MODIFICATIONS I added a pocket in the side seam (just one cause I'm lazy), and a blind zipper. Somehow my notes read that the skirt would be too tight and should only be used as a dress, but it turned out too large anyway... I was too lazy to unpick the whole waistband so now the back panels are less wide than the front, but I couldn't care less ;) #lazysewist #circleskirt #selfmadefashion #sandycircleskirt #imakemyownclothes
