Limestone Sleeve Add-On (Sofiona Designs)

 



We're back at it, with another fabulous pattern from Sofiona Designs!!!  

This is a sleeve Add-On for the Miss Limestone


 to their original pattern Miss Limestone.  


This is a very easy fit jacket.



It has several options.  

You can choose between 2 lengths,  both with a high-low hem.

 We chose the shorter length on both of ours.




 

 

 

 

This pattern has huge pockets, and lots of options for adding details like piping.

I added the back stripe with piping down each side on mine. 











I chose the unlined version, because the backing of this fabric was a lovely purple satin. 








For my daughters coat we went with a fully lined jacket.  She wanted a warm cozy flannel for the lining. 














I opted for the double piping on both cuffs.



This Jacket is very comfortable and easy to wear.  She loves it! 

 It's very practical for our fall weather here in Canada.

GrassLands T-shirt from Pollywoggles Patterns

INTRODUCING 

3 BRAND NEW PATTERNS!!!!  

  I made my daughter this suit last fall, you can read about it here Sydney's New Suit.
 
 
Pollywoggles Patterns is Releasing 2 new color block shirts. 
Sizing kids 2 - Tween

AND an Applique pattern to add to her collection 
   


Grasslands is a t-shirt and Mingan is a raglan
They mix and match with her previous
t-shirt pattern Redberry
All 3 are available as a bundle here
Grassland, Mingan, Redberry Bundle




When Heidi at Pollywoggles Patterns asked for some testers for her fabulous new color-blocked t-shirt Grasslands, I knew this was a great opportunity to make a matching top.  The brown on the shirt is the same knit that was used on the sides of the skirt. 





Grasslands T-Shirt is a unisex pattern for kids and teens.  It has a very large size range.

Sydney is wearing the size C.  In adult patterns she wears a 2-4.

Grasslands T-shirt
Size range includes 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 10, A, B, C, D (tween/teen sizes)
 
 


Grasslands is designed for knit fabrics.  The color blocking lets you add a splash of color, and be creative in your designs.  It's also a great way to use up some scraps or incorporate some special fabrics. 







Suggested Fabric:
 Cotton Lycra and similar stretch/recovery knit fabrics (10-11oz, 200-230gcm) with 50% stretch for main body. Same fabric or good quality ribbing for neckband.
 



The Grasslands pattern has step by step photo instructions and is very easy to follow along.  Pay special attention to matching up your color-blocking seams, hand basting like she recommends really helps. 

 

 

 

 

 



This pattern is so versatile you can dress it up or down
