Sew Fancy Pants: Workroom Social Fabrics Ninni Culottes

We interrupt your regularly scheduled Sew Twists and Ties programming with this brief message... because it's time to Sew Fancy Pants!

Sew Twists and Ties: Named Ruska Knot Dress

My second Sew Twists and Ties project!

Pineapple Reeta Shirtdress

Is it still the case that #pineapplesaresohotrightnow, or am I five years too late? I'm not sure I care either way. Because I am going to wear the heck out of them no matter the answer.

Sewing Leftovers: Named Clothing Delia Beanies

This post is a long time coming... some of these hats were made right before Christmas, 2017!

Cocktail Dress: Named Agate Dress

Cocktail, anyone?

Ninni Culottes x 2

Ninni Culottes from Named Clothing: so nice I made them twice!

Alexandria Trousers for Me

I loved the pair of Alexandria Peg Trousers that I made for my friend Colleen so much that I made a pair for myself!

Talvikki, Take 1

I don't typically post works in progress here, opting to post only the finished products, but I thought this could benefit from a few more eyes!

Named Sointu Kimono Tee

An all ponte outfit is pretty much the definition of secret pajamas, non?

Basketweave Alexandria Peg Trousers

My friend Colleen is an avid supporter of my crafty endeavors... when she requested that I make her something, I jumped at the opportunity!

Metallic Kielo

Kielo, where have you been all my life?!

Batik Inari Tee Dress

I've succumbed to the allure of the Inari Tee Dress.

Peacock Wenona Shirt

So this is definitely not selfish sewing, but I promise this was made long before Selfish Sewing Week... 

This is a Named Patterns Wenona blouse that I made for my sister. I actually made it before I made my Wenona, but sending it off to the other side of the world and waiting for photos in return takes a while:

Colorblocked Wenona Shirt

Alrighty, folks. I'm back! I've actually been doing lots of unselfish sewing of late, but haven't blogged about those makes because I have to send the final products around the world to the recipients and then wait for photos in return. So, coming soon(ish) on those.

But in the meantime, my most recent make is for myself. And I've got mixed things to say about it. 

Kanerva in Lawn

Woop woop! Back at my sewing machine after a few weeks off, busy with work, a business trip to Vietnam and Thanksgiving.

My first foray back into sewing is the Kanerva peplum blouse by Named. I think the pattern is a sleek, modern take on the peplum and I love the button back. I've had my eye on it since I saw it pop up around the blogging world earlier this year... I was particularly enamored of Kirsty's two Liberty Kanerva blouses. Amazing.
