Our latest Crew pattern is meant for flowin' (and glowin')
GET JosephineThis is a great pattern and I am enjoying sewing alongside the video. It forces me to slow down and focus. I sewed a size small and the only adjustment I made was to shorten the length by 3 inches. Learning new skills, can’t wait to make another.
Made the top of this pattern as a kit from Guthrie and Ghani in a lovely linen cotton fabric as a summer top. The pattern is oversized as a pyjama so I would probably scale down in the future for a blouse, but it was a really enjoyable make. Really appreciated the support videos and extra information on your website were very helpful. Thank you!
This linen is a lovely weight, substantial but not heavy. The colour stayed vibrant with washing and it irons beautifully.
I have to admit, I wasn’t interested in making pj’s. Then I saw what could be done with the pattern to make it into day clothes. Then I had to have it. I’m currently working on a group of items to mix and match, the pattern is so versatile
Sewing my first Elodie was a breeze (instructions-wise; sewing it in silk chiffon was a bit of a slow and nerve wrecking job, but still totally worth it!) and I am happy I went for this pattern for my wedding guest dress - as I will be definitelly wearing it a lot and also sewing another Elodie(s) in more casual fabric for different feel of it. Love the construction and the fit as well!
For my 177 cms I added 7 cms of skirt lenght for midi skirt and sew both sleeve and skirt hems much narrower due to the fine fabric which lengtened both even more.
