Other peoples makes I loved in August!

Now fall is coming for real here in Oslo. The weatherreport says no sun for the next 10 days. It kind of sucks, but it is also a good reason to stay inside and sew all the things.

August did not give time for much sewing. But i finnished a lemon dress for sewcialist. You can check it out here. I also made a small make-up bag for my  grandmothers 75th birthday. But other then that it has been work and some changes that have taken some time.

Luckely for me, you guys did not let me down this month. Here are some of the things I loved this month.

What other people blogged in August, that I really loved!

I love this fabric and dress combination from Katie

Fabric twinning with Helen who made this awsome kimono, in the same fabric I wore to a weddding this summer

Talking about Kimonos, Amanda made this awsome Asaka kimono from a liberty crepe de chin

These linen pants are just so good, from Lucky sew and sew

Also this polka dot lilou dress from the petit passions should be a dress we all have in our wardrobe

Here are some blog posts I really liked, that did not include makes but you might like and inspire you anyway:

I have listend to the ‘Love to sew’ podcast from Helen and Caroline and it is great, the sound quality is one of the best I have herad from a pod that is not actually a radio show

Other peoples makes I loved in July!

It’s the end of July, the beginning of August. In many ways it feels like the beginning of fall, but I am hoping for at least two more weeks of summer.

I was only home for 9 days of July and did not have all the time in the world, but I managed to make a toile and a dress to be a wedding guest. So look out for a post about that coming this month.

Luckily for me a lot of you guys made awesome things for me to look at, so let’s check out other peoples makes and posts!

What other people blogged in July, that I really loved!

This bikini and beach-coverup from Sewredy! I would love to look like a mermaid.

This lovely fun floral Orla by Carmen.

I am totally fan-girling over self assembly required, and want to make everything Emily makes. But who does not love a midi-skirt in pink?

Jessicas valley blouse made me doubt I pattern I had totally decided was not for me.

Other peoples makes I loved in June!

How many times do you need to do something before it is a tradition? I do not think 2 is the answer, but my post of other peoples makes are back for the second month in a row. And definitely on it’s way to become a tradition.

I my self have had a month filled up with work, then I went of for a week of family vacation in Italy. I did not finish one single thing in June, and I am only home for two week in July so I don’t know how much I would get done in that time. But on my sewing table right now is a wedding-guest dress and I hope to also finish another Orla dress for #anorlaaffair that you can read about on Maddies blog! (this came in july, but you should totaly check it out and make your own Orla)

On to the makes. What other people blogged in June, that I really loved!

This really nice shirt dress from Judith Dees world! 

I keep telling my self I do not have the time or the need for Charlie Caftan, but you guys should make some! I love this three versions from cookin’ & craftin’ , Did you make that? and Handmade by Carolyn.

This Anna/Zinnia sunflower dress of happiness from Turner’s cloth! 

This red sundress with sumo wrestlers from Almond Rock is just great! 

And last, the Penny dress from Daphne that makes me want all the Penny dresses! 

Here are some blog posts I really liked, that did not include makes but you might like and inspire you anyway:

There is still weather to make shorts, and Helen from Helen’s Closet has gathered all the Indie pattern shorts patterns here.

Everyone loves a free pattern, and when they are super trendy as well! Emily from Self Assembly Required has released and adorable ruffle t-shirt pattern.
