It’s going to be a hot day so I’ll be wearing my linen pinafore! Pinafores are so fun to sew. The top of this one is simplicity 8849. I hacked the skirt by adding gathers and replaced the single buttons on the bodice and skirt with doubled buttons, a change inspired by RTW versions. Linen is from @joann_stores. Stay cool today! #sewing #simplicity8849 #simplicitypatterns #madewithjoann #ilovelinen #sewover50 #sew50visible #sewistsofinstagram #sewist #sewingbloggersofinstagram #sewpdx #pdxsewing #memadeeveryday #memadewardrobe

Sew Over It London released a new pattern today, the #esmadress and it is so comfortable and easy to sew! The pattern is designed with short sleeves but I made mine 3/4 length because I know I’ll want to wear this all through the fall. It’s an easy sew with a lightly gathered waist, and best of all, the pockets! They’re nice and deep. All in all a very cute and wearable dress! #soipatterninsiders #soiesmadress @sewoveritlondon #sewover50 #sew50visible #sewistsofinstagram #iwearwhatisew #memadeeveryday #handmadewardrobe #sew #sewproject #sewcialists #pdxsews

After seeing so many inspiring versions of the #pennypinafore I had to give it a go! My version is of washed linen from @boltfabricpdx and it’s so soft, I just want to wear it all the time!! There’s nothing like wearing linen in the summer if you ask me. Under my #pennypinafore I’m wearing a #cuff top in linen too. The pinafore is quite fun to sew too. My husband doesn’t quite get the pockets in the back, but I 💕them. #pennypinafore #pennypinaforedress #sewliberated #sewliberatedpatterns #sewover50 #sewsewsew #memadeeveryday #cufftop #assemblylinepatterns #assemblylinepatterns #assemblyline #boltfabricboutique #boltfabric #boltfabricpdx #sewistsofinstagram

Another #florencetop from @merchant and mills this time in a raspberry rayon that feels so lovely even in the wind! I do love the back of this top, the way the peplum has a high low effect. Must try the dress version soon! #sewing #florencetop #merchantandmills #sewover50 #sew50visible #sewcialists #sewistofinstagram #sewist #memadeeveryday #handmadewardrobe #summersewing

New pattern from @sewoveritlondon, the Jodie shirt. I made my version from a bright cotton linen blend and it is perfect as I shirt on it’s own it a light weight topper ina cool summer evening. Lots of great details..I love the collar and the front pockets. It has a bit of a safari feel and I can imagine making it again in khaki linen.

This cut work tablecloth needed a bit of a dye job to cover some yellowing. Now it’s a #kobetop from @papercutpatterns . Page through to see the cool pleats in the back. The dye box was less than five dollars but I think it saved the day! #kobetop #papercutpatternskobe #papercutpatterns #ritdye #sewover50 #remakerecycle #sew #sewistofinstagram #makersgonnamake #memadewardrobe #memadeeveryday #sewistsofinstagram #sewcialistsofinstagram
